Divya and Jim were all about the details! Every little part of their wedding was perfectly planned… except the rain! They decided to wait a few minutes, and they made the right decision- the clouds parted and it ended up being a perfect and sunny summer day! I loved all the little things that made […]

On June 12th hundreds of NOAA employees and partners participated in the 4th annual NOAA Restoration Day in two different states — one near the Patuxent River in Maryland and the other on the James River in Virginia. This event is growing every year as NOAA employees in Maryland and Virginia work to restore habitat […]

Another fantastic DC wedding! Julia and Ben are such sweethearts! Their ceremony was sweet and filled with laughs and smiles. After some fun formal pics at the Library of Congress (we got yelled at- oops!) a big, fun party began. It never stopped- right up until the end! I loved that nearly every guest was […]

Eva and Gregg… what can I even say?! After 14 years of courting they finally tied the knot at Aberdeen Proving Ground. When I first met these two over a year ago, I just knew they were a great couple. Gregg is one of those guys who wants to make sure that Eva has everything […]

Well, they said to show up rain or shine, and we did! Although the rain sprinkled down on us at different times this morning, no one, especially the dogs, seemed to mind! The Washington Animal Rescue League’s annual 5K Fun Run & 2-mile walk with dogs was held at American University (my alma mater!) for […]

Monique and Tom have been together for nearly 15 years! Their closest friends and family joined them at the Campagna Center in Alexandria. It’s such a cool building with a great mission.

You can’t get a more DC wedding than this one! It was another iffy-looking weather day in DC, but again it held out. In fact, we never saw a drop! The day started out at the fabulous Hotel Sofitel in Lafayette Square. I seriously parked half a block from the White House- gotta love DC! […]

Freeze King in Frederick is now open! An old favorite in Frederick is back and better than ever.

Even with the lights flickering all evening due to the weather, Robin and Chris had a great wedding. With all their friends and family as witness, they said […]

When you think of a fairytale wedding you envision a big white, beautiful dress, gorgeous flowers, a gorgeous princess, a hunky prince, a horse & carriage, and lots of dancing. Jeff and Denise pulled it off, but instead of a carriage they had a 1952 gold Bentley! The day began at Pender United Methodist Church […]
