Ah yes, the age-old question: Do I need a wedding planner? The answer is an overwhelming YES. What most brides don’t realize is that, no matter what, you will have a wedding planner. If you don’t hire a professional, this job will either fall to you, your photographer, your mother, or a team of drunken bridesmaids. This is not to say that any of these people can do this job or are in the least bit qualified for it… but one way or another, your wedding will go on. Whether you want it to run smoothly without stress is up to you.

Should I Hire a Wedding Planner? | DC Wedding Planning | Couples’ Education

When Rebecca showed up wearing this Lulus sequin gold dress I nearly had a heart attack. How stunning does she look!? Rebecca and Christian were in town on a little vacation up from South Carolina. She is a wedding photographer herself, and as such, this couple treats themselves to anniversary photos once a year! I was honored to be able to capture this session for them!

Washington DC Wedding | Jefferson Memorial Anniversary Photos | Rebecca and Christian

have only cried at 2 weddings this season: this was one of them. Jessica Green hired me to help capture this magical love story in DC and oh man am I glad she did! This was one of the most stylish weddings of 2016. Almila and Cameron got married at the Josephine Butler house this fall which has turned into my favorite venue!

Joesphine Butler House Wedding | DC Elopement | Almila and Cameron

If you ever wanted to see what an all American wedding looks like: this is it. Carolyn and Matt adorned the colors of the United States Flag- red, wedding white, and blue. This was the first wedding that truly felt like fall! Even her bouquet had hints of red and fall-esque florals. I was so thankful that Brett Denfeld hired me to help capture this day!
