Sneak Peeks!

If there's one thing I love, it's photographing gorgeous weddings in a wide variety of locations.  From beaches and farms to museums and ballrooms to vineyards and stadiums, it never ceases to amaze and delight me at the different venues in which each of my couples selects to celebrate their day.  As I sit here realizing just how quickly the year is flying by, I want to say a huge thank you to all of my wonderful clients!  And of course, here are some recent weddings to check out:

Spring in brief | Washington, DC wedding and engagement photography

I LOVE Spring.  I especially love THIS Spring. Cherry blossom crowds and thunderstorms aside, this time of year just rocks.  And mother nature decided to actually give us a real Spring in the DC area this year!  I'm loving the 70 degree days and flowers galore.  Before coming to the DC area, I swear I'd never seen so many flowering trees.  Major bonus for a wedding photographer.  So, I just wanted to give you a sneak peek at what's been going on for us so far this Spring.

Hayden & Mike | National Museum of Women in the Arts | DC wedding photography

Ceremony: St. Peter's Catholic Church on Capitol Hill
Reception: National Museum of Women in the Arts
Flowers: Da Vinci's
Catering: Heidi with R&R Catering
Planner: Rebecca with Wish Special Events

I can honestly tell you that I was looking forward to Hayden and Mike's day from the moment I met with Hayden a year ago. Her excitement rubbed off on me within the first few minutes we started talking! I could easily picture the elegant set-up that she described when she told me about the reception they were planning at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. I have to say that the venue was a perfect choice for their vision! Just wait till you see the results! Swoon! It was a beautiful day from beginning to end and I am so excited to finally share some of my favorite images! Hayden and Mike, thank you for having me there! And congratulations again!!!!

Check out how the look on Hayden's face is mirrored on Mike's face in the next image! So sweet!

I love this one of them checking out their wedding bands in the limo right after the ceremony!

These ladies rocked it!

They were such a fun group!

And the men were pretty cool too. :)

I think we were one of three or four bridal parties in the park that day...but Hayden and Mike were totally engrossed in each other and nothing else...love it!

The light was gorgeous...and you know how much I love great light!

Can I just say how much I love toasts?!?! The emotion that comes out never fails to make me smile (and sometimes tear-up too).

Had to end on this great dessert bar!

And chocolate and diamonds...yum! What a great combo!
