I just got back from NYC and even though the weather wasn't the best, I always have such a great time up there! I even got to see a flash mob in Central Park and a wedding party being photographed at the park in the rain. It got me thinking about these rainy days and how we deal with them on a wedding day. Over the course of photographing 100++ weddings over the last several years, it is rare that I've had to deal with rain on a wedding day. Statistically I know that I should have …
Alex & Matt Married: Riverside on the Potomac Wedding
Alex and Matt were married this past September in the most idyllic spot that is Riverside on the Potomac. This farm is literally on the Potomac River and it is connected to horse farms and rolling hills. Every time a bride e-mails and says she is getting married at Riverside, I get a little giddy and excited because that's how much I love this venue. Alex and Matt met while they were in college. They were set up on a date by Alex's friend, I don't think either of them would have thought that …
Who’s feeling spring?: Tranquility Farm Wedding
Who's looking outdoors and feeling ready for spring? This girl most certainly is! Winter in Virginia this year has been pretty blah and not even really a pretty snow to capture at all.

It reminded me of the prettiest …
Joe & Roxana Married at the Ronald Reagan Building: Washington D.C. Wedding Photography
Joe & Roxana's wedding was by far my most colorful wedding of the year! The marrying of two cultures together, Mexican and Indian, produced a virtual color feast for the eyes and was a fun start to my spring weddings this past year. Joe and Roxana are some of the most genuine and kind people I have come across. They are fun, intelligent, and it was clear by the guests that attended, that they keep their friends and family close at heart. They were so fun to capture! Here are the lovely …
Whitney & Robert at the Rice: Houston Wedding Photographer
Whitney and Robert are two very special people in my life. Whitney is my cousin and was always like a little sister to me. Although she lived in Texas and I grew up in Washington, my Uncle Dean and Aunt Joanne were good about bringing their children, Whitney and Travis, back home to visit. Whitney was always so engaging and fun to talk to. She had so much energy all of the time and I marveled at her enthusiasm and opinions at a young age. She always knew what she wanted and was determined …
