Since my husband works in hotels, I often get the question, “Kir, what are your favorite DC hotels?” I will also say, so many DC weddings are at a church or reception space so a getting ready area is needed! The better the room, the better your getting ready imagery and often times, First Look […]

The second Kailey inquired, I knew she was the bride for me. This gal is a vlogger, chic fashionista and has the same taste in movies (SO many Notebook references made on wedding day). She and Ryan were high school sweethearts and Ryan knew from their very first phone conversations that Kailey was the one. […]

Washington DC Engagement | District of Columbia Wedding Photographer Kir Tuben

Brian and Rachel tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at Great Marsh Estate this May and I cannot handle how perfectly the day went. I don’t like using the word perfect because I feel like it devalues the word as it gets used too frequently, but this wedding you guys!!!! Rachel & Brian were cool as cucumbers all day because they have known this day would come since they met in ELEVENTH GRADE. Their families were incredible, their friends looked like models but were extremely helpful and kind.
