Aidan and Greg had the sweetest wedding this fall. They decided to make it feel super comfortable and causal for all their loved ones involved! These two hosted 54 people in the Josephine Butler Parks Center to watch them exchange hand written vows in the small ballroom during sunset. Aidan and Greg decided on a first look in Meridian Hill Park so they could greet their guests to he ceremony as they arrived!

Josephine Butler Parks Center Wedding | Washington DC Wedding | Aidan and Greg

Elise & Jarrett opted for 2 extremely different portrait locations for their engagement session and I was all about it! We started at the Jefferson memorial at sunrise to get some classic DC portraits and ended with their pup walking around Roosevelt Island!

Roosevelt Island Engagement Session | Washington DC Engagement Photos | Elise and Jarrett

Never has there ever been a goofier groom than Rob. I think I laughed the entire 2 hour session with these two. Rob’s sense of humor made this engagement session a breeze because he always made Renee smile from ear to ear! We woke up super early to walk around Jefferson and then headed to Lincoln. Even though Lincoln was under construction, you can hardly tell!

Washington DC Memorial Engagement Session | District of Columbia Wedding Photographer | Renee and Rob

These two have a very cool history. They actually met online but come to find out, their families are from the same small town in India and their grandfathers used to be NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORS. How crazy is that!? I can’t believe that these two would find one another hundreds of miles away decades after their families knew one another. I think it’s safe to say that fate stepped in here.

Library of Congress Engagement Session | DC Engagement Photographer | Aparna and Prashant

This editorial is super close to my heart. The idea behind these images is inclusivity, sisterhood and authenticity. This project was planned, styled and executed by a team of women wedding professionals in the DC area. Our experiences in the wedding industry and the venue inspired our vision.

Congressional Club Wedding | Washington D.C. Wedding Editorial Shoot | Best District of Columbia Wedding Venues

Allison and Dave are one of the most laid back couples I have worked with. The two met in DC and have lived in the city for years around Logan Circle so it stands to reason that we would snap engagement photos around the place they call home. We started at The Coffee Bar and got super lucky with an early blooming tree nearby!

You may not believe it but this is the SECOND puppy announcement shoot I have done in my career. Some might think that hiring a professional photographer for your pet is “extra” but actually I think it celebrates some of the best moments in your everyday life! Pets (especially doggos) become such a huge part of your family that I think it is sweet to commemorate their childhood with some quality images!

DC Lifestyle Shoot | Puppy Announcement Photos | Cale and Lori

Every year I get couples asking me for advice on where to snap their engagement sessions. While many couples know the exact place they want casual portraits, many don’t! Last year, I comprised a list of the most popular engagement locations in DC and areas in Virginia as well. It became so useful to couples that Virginia Bride Magazine published my advice! How fun! However, lately I have had couples ask to shoot somewhere outside of the norm. A lot of them ask me “where have you always wanted to shoot?” Instead of writing out my list a hundred times, I thought I would share it with the world. To show you what the areas look like, I pulled images off of Google Search because I have never photographed here before!

Bucket List Shooting Locations | Couples’ Education

I have felt super connected to this couple since day one. We had a Skype call to introduce ourselves and, almost immediately, we were introducing each other to our cats! Morgan and Jeff met at trivia and are the sweetest couple you’ll ever hope to meet. They are both so authentic and genuine that they completely embody my motto of being ‘true, original sweethearts’. Their wedding planning, just like their relationship, seems so honest to who they are; they’re even getting vegan treats for their dessert!
