Thanks for stopping by and leave me a comment to say hi and let me know you were here. I love comments!!! Have a great day and come back soon!
Mary and Chris are so freaking fun to shoot! I love it when couple leave locations up to me! Mary said she trusted to me to what ever! Music to my ears! These hot summer time heat shots make me smile! They have so much love and chemistry together it is awesome! Mary and Chis live in NY and are getting married in DC this summer. I can’t wait for their wedding.
The Muehlendorf’s went camping this weekend. I have never been to West Virginia and I didn’t even know that is where we were going until half way on our drive. I love that we can be camping in such a beautiful place in a little over 2 hours! It was great. Windows down and good music makes for a super fun drive. Apparently AT&T does not have any cell towers there, but that is a good thing. I had a much needed relaxing time of doing noting but hanging out with my family. We cooked hot dogs, smores, and for breakfast we actually cooked bacon, scrambled egg with cheese and toast sandwiches on the campfire! Coffee from a percolator is wonderful when the sun is coming up. Our camp site was literally right next to this babbling brook that was like heaven listening to all night. It brought back so many childhood memories of camping and we had so much fun and I can’t wait to get away and go camping again.
Oh by the way I brought along my favorite little point and shoot (the canon g9) and snapped this pic of our tent. A little blurry but what can you expect for a timed exposure with no tripod. 
Look how adorable Chelsea and Mike are! They are getting married in 9 days in St. Maarten! I can’t wait!!! I have been looking forward to their wedding for a long time now. Ok so back to how cute they are and these pictures. The balloons and candy ring pop is the work of Chelsea and of course I LOVED it! They are so cute because they have their own very long and super fun secret handshake. It makes me want a secret handshake! So FUN!!! They showed it to me in front of the music tree. Finding cool places to shoot in alleys make me happy! Have a great day everyone!
Meet Jen and Dan. Aren’t they super cute? They are getting married in May. I LOVE these pictures. So happy and spring like! Have a great Monday everyone!!!
Veronica and Jason were married on 04.04.09. She planned her day hoping have cherry blossoms and as it would turn out her wedding day was on the peak bloom day. It was a beautiful day the weather was perfect! I can not say enough good things about each and every vendor of this wedding. My super awesome friend Brooke of Brooke Schwab Photography in Houston flew in to visit and shoot with me. It was amazing to have her shoot with me! It is fun to see shots she takes that I didn’t see and vice versa. This wedding turned out pretty awesome, I must say! Now as crazy as Washington, DC was this cherry blossom day we managed to get the most amazing shots down at the Jefferson Memorial. I am super happy with these pictures!!! Veronica and Jason should be getting home from their honeymoon in Thailand and Tokyo today, so I hope this makes them smile.

It was fun taking pictures of Jennifer and Eric! We started out here by my house at this old barn and I love it because I have been wanting to shoot here since I moved here last May! I love that they brought their dogs Peanut and Coco along for the shoot as well. We also took some pics with their cool bike and then we headed down to Haines Point to shoot around the cherry blossoms. I must say I am more than over this Cherry blossom traffic! HOLY COW! I am glad we got some really cool shots though!
Erin and Nate are so fun to take pictures of! Erin laughs non stop and it is a contagious laugh. They make me happy! We met out at their favorite Vineyard. Pearmund is in Virginia not very far from me at all. It is gorgeous out there! I can wait to go visit again! When I was driving home from this session I couldn’t remember the last time I had shot an engagement session at sunset. The light was super awesome and so romantic! Erin’s white dress is the best! It is so cute to see Nate look at Erin. These two are so in love and I love seeing couples have fun together! We are going to do a Part 2 engagement session later this summer before they get married in November!
Megan and Matt came down from NYC this past weekend and we shot their engagement session around Georgetown University where they went to school and met. The weather was forecasted to thunderstorm the whole afternoon. We were so happy it ended up to be a beautiful day with only a tiny little sprinkle in the sunshine. We had fun walking all over. Matt even had to piggyback Megan for a while because her feet were hurting. Megan and Matt are super cute, super sweet genuine people. They are getting married in June so we will see them again soon!
This little boy walked by as we were shooting and slowly lingered saying, “CHEEEEESE!” So cute!
