We talked about proposing at Meadowlark but with the rain, Jefferson was the best possible rain plan! A quiet afternoon at the national mall made for a super intimate setting in the district. Congrats to the […]

First comes love then comes marriage…. then comes engagement session?? Welp, if 2020 taught us anything it’s that life can be unpredictable.
