Alyssa and Ethan probably had one of my favorite sessions of the year. We knew we wanted cherry blossoms but also knew the tidal basin might be closed due to the pandemic. As it turns out, we went at sunrise on a weekend and had no problem at all with pedestrian access. In fact, these […]

John and Maria found me through past clients and just knew they wanted DC Monument engagement photos. Since Jefferson is under construction and the Capitol is fenced off due to the insurrection, we landed on Lincoln. What a time to be engaged in DC! We woke up early to catch the sunrise light and were […]

Kira and Ben originally planned to get married in Italy but with COVID ruining all destination weddings, they decided that they had waiting long enough to get married….. since high school in fact! They were prom dates!! How adorable is that? When K & B picked this new January date, they had no idea that […]

Elizabeth and Connor met in DC so they just knew they wanted a classic DC engagement session. Although they’ll be getting married in Austin, Texas (where this bride to be is originally from), they wanted to celebrate where they built their life together. We got insanely lucky with the weather and this happened to be […]

I don’t know how to put this yearly post into words. Like many, 2020 was slated to be my best, most profitable year yet… but make plans and the universe laughs. When the pandemic shutdowns began, I assumed quarantine would be over by fall. Welp, the joke was on me and I am always reminded […]

I was a little worried about the weather (it was 35 degrees this morning) but Savannah was a champ and laughed through the entire hour. My hubby […]

Some mornings are just better than others. The forecast actually said overcast but MAN I am glad we kept this date. The fog made for this stunning diffused light so that Emily and Will had some epic, dramatic sun. Some locations just never get old! At the end of the session they joked about how […]

Krissy and Avinash are one of my 2020 couples turned 2021! They actually had a small ceremony to make it official right before these portraits so it was just such a stroke of luck that we would run into the Just Married Jacket rep for DC at their sunrise engagement session at the monuments. If […]

Who else here hates COVID? Well, Emily and Andrew took on their wedding day in my favorite way in 2020: a fun elopement inspired day with hopes of a big party later! These two booked a room at the historic Hay Adams hotel to celebrate, complete with a doggy bed for their pup Rilo. They […]

When you have a 2 year old puppy, you just KNOW he has to be front and center in your engagement photos. Lee and Alden decided to take a lovely fall walk around Georgetown for their engagement session! I toured them all around my favorite spots to get the ideal fall leaves and some European […]
