Tory & Isaac met through mutual friends who stood by their sides as best man and matron of honor at their July wedding at the DC Arts Club. Their intimate city wedding was supposed to be nothing but rain all day but all we saw were tiny droplets here and there. It barely sprinkled on our Lincoln memorial parade as we walked with clear umbrellas in hand.

Amanda and Heikki knew exactly where they wanted engagement photos: right at the spot where he proposed. Heikki got down on one knee right at the Lincoln memorial and asked Amanda to spend forever with him. It only seemed right to have a snowy session on the mall! 

When Kathy sent me inspiration photos for this shoot, I happily referred her to studio photographers in the area. Kathy would not take “I don’t shoot studio” for an answer and oh, man am I so happy she didn’t! I LOVE trying new forms of photography and am thrilled that she put her trust in me to nail this studio session. 

2017 will forever be the year I remember building my ideal business. I shot 19 weddings, 5 styled shoots, took on 3 second shooting gigs, 52 engagements, 3 proposals and 12 lifestyle shoots. I rebranded, hired an associate and (fun fact) still was tutoring full time.

Every year I get couples asking me heaps of questions about their engagement session! So, I decided to turn your FAQs into a little blog post! Here are my best tips & tricks for having your best engagement session

Meaghan and Dave had the perfect wedding that suited them as a couple. Having been to their fair share of weddings, these two knew exactly what to prioritize: family, an authentic ceremony and a good time. Meg & Dave tied the knot on October 21st in an intimate DC service under the dome of the DC War Memorial.
