How adorable is pretty much everything about this wedding? From the reception decor to the dogs to the couple! Laura & Justin had a small 15-person wedding in their backyard in Washington DC on Saturday. The rain held off most of the day and it was a perfect, casual yet special atmosphere. AMAZING photos by our associate, Carling & Dakota Photography.
Backyard DC Micro-Wedding
Baby Natalie
I adore working with Michelle and Keith! From their amazing wedding in 2018, to their maternity session this past winter, to their newborn session with baby Natalie from this week - it’s always great to see them. So happy for this next chapter in their life.
Lincoln Memorial + War Memorial
Since the Jefferson Memorial has been under construction for quite some time, the reflecting pool has been the most popular DC option for photographers lately, but it never disappoints! Plus, just a short walk from the epic Lincoln Memorial is the quieter, more intimate War Memorial. I had a great time with these two on Sunday morning and I’m looking forward to their big day this Fall.
Wedding At Harbour View
Marissa and Michael got married on Saturday and it was a beautiful day. We experienced a new venue - Harbour View - off of the Occoquan River! From the first look with her father, to Michael watching Marissa walk down the aisle, to some epic reception dancing, it was a special day.
Springtime in Old Town
Erin & Dan are getting married in about a year, so this springtime engagement session in Old Town was perfect timing! We had a great time walking around with them on a perfect sunny, 70 degree evening. Loved their navy blue color scheme, too!
DC Spring Session
Another day and another beautiful Spring DC session! This engagement session was full of meaningful spots to these two: Ben works on Capitol Hill (pictured), the Redbud tree (pictured) is significant to their parents, and Gravelly Point park is where these two would watch the planes (pictured) from Reagan International fly overhead before Jenni would hop on one herself later that day to fly back to NY. Such a fun time with these two.
Cherry Blossom Sunrise
These three braved 25-degree windchills at sunrise on Saturday to have their engagement photos taken during the tail-end of the infamous Cherry Blossoms! It was so worth it..we will never tire of this annual, stunning display of nature. Looking forward to Kim & Jordan's wedding this summer!
Sunny & 75 Spring Blooming Wedding
You might be starting to recognize this venue since we've done quite a few weddings here! Laura & Kyle finally got to celebrate their marriage last Friday with about 20 others at Evergreen Country Club. It's still not as many guests as they hoped, but the entire day was incredibly special AND they lucked out with 75-degree weather and pink blossoms. These two are so deserving of the great day they had and have gotten us so excited for this Spring wedding season.
Głowy Maternity Session
Michelle & Keith are a 2018 wedding couple of ours and Michelle reached out last minute for a maternity session! We’re so happy for them. She looked absolutely radiant and is due at the end of this month. We lucked out with a very warm day on Wednesday for the shoot, which meant dealing with some mud, but these two were such troopers. Algonkian Park is a perfect spot for portrait sessions.
Welcome, Baby Jackson
Welcome, baby Jackson! It feels like it was just last week that we did Ellen and Joel's maternity session. Congratulations to this sweet family.
10 Person Wedding
Congratulations to Kaitlyn and Matt! These two had an intimate ceremony on Saturday with just their immediate families. They are eager for a bigger celebration (at a TBD date) but for now they are over the moon to be married.
Newborn Session
You might recognize these two from their recent maternity session with us, or their wedding that we captured! Well, their beautiful baby girl is now here, and, she must really like me because the kind soul slept peacefully during the entire session!
Surprise NYE Proposal
New year, new fiancé We loved capturing this NYE surprise proposal in Reston! It was crazy dark, some passersby were concerned why two people with cameras were hiding near a random bridge, and there was a threat of rain.. but in the end, everything came together. Happy New Year, everyone!
Puppy Engagement
We are pretty obsessed with Brooklyn, Laura & Justin’s young and energetic doodle! We had such a great time with these two, well, THREE, in Old Town Alexandria. It was quite cold and windy but the photos made it all worth it. These two will be having a small backyard wedding next April in DC!
Georgetown Maternity Session
We love how last week’s maternity session didn’t really look like December! Golden sun and even some green, lush colors along the canal. We had such a great time with these two.
Corgis and Newborns
This week was just the cutest newborn session. When corgis are involved, things are always cuter! Welcome to the world, baby Chloe.
Maternity Session for 2019 Clients
We are so happy for our 2019 wedding clients celebrating this NEW milestone. Congratulations to Patrick and Sofie and their baby girl due in January!
Last Wedding of 2020
Our last wedding of the year did not disappoint! We had great Fall weather, a wonderful team of vendors, and most of all, just such an amazing couple. Emily and Matt were so much fun to work with and truly treated their entire team of vendors with so much care. We are so happy to have ended this wedding season on such a good note after the crazy year it’s been!
Whitehall Estate Wedding
Congratulations to this sweet couple, Kelly & Paul. What a beautiful Fall wedding on Saturday with them at Whitehall Estate in Bluemont!! Hard to believe we are wrapping up our 2020 wedding season soon.
Arts Club of Washington Wedding
Rain and cold on your wedding day? No problem! What a fun wedding at the Arts Club of Washington on Sunday. We've known Iv & Ali for a while since we did Iv's twin's wedding a few years ago (which was also full of the same fun Bulgarian traditions). Impressive facts: Ali works in a retirement home devoting care to seniors, and Iv is currently working on the vaccine. Now..see if you can spot some DC pigeons photobombing in a couple shots!
