Kelly and Will wanted to take engagement photos in a spot that was DC without being too obviously DC. The Kennedy Center gives a modern romantic vibe and the florals pop purple around the REACH center along the Potomac. They got a stunning sunset and perfect weather for their romantic DC engagement session!

This session right here was a DREAM. Alex and Mitch were utter perfection at the monuments this spring sunrise. They decided on engagement photos at the Lincoln memorial because that is where Mitch proposed. Actually, minutes earlier, someone stole his thunder and popped the questions right before he did!

It is strange how some people come into your life. I met Pam and Tom in a very nontraditional way. Most of my brides find me through word of mouth, mutual acquaintances or Instagram. When a parent of a student I teach mentioned that her friend was getting married, I felt it was bizarre fate that my two businesses would collide.
