Today was the definition of a perfect micro wedding. Congrats Ryan + Emily! A beautiful day at The Line Hotel DC hair + makeup: @christybeauty__ (and a big thanks to @bashdc for sending me this sweet little wedding!)

I have been photographing small (I think it’s cool to call them “micro” now, right?) weddings since before they were trendy/necessary. Several years ago I made a conscious decision to seek out clients with smaller weddings. There were a lot of reasons for this, but mostly it came down to the fact that being gone […]

I got to photograph a small, intimate same-sex wedding today and when I left my feet were exhausted (doesn’t take much these days) but my heart was happy. In a very traditional Jewish ceremony, at one of the groom’s childhood temples, they said their vows under a huppah, a sibling holding each corner. There was […]

  We were all a little nervous earlier in the week, when the forecast called for rain. Lots of rain. But as the week chugged along, the weather was looking better and better. And by Saturday morning, I knew we were going to have an amazing day! Wetherly and Jason started the day at the […]

:: THE CECERE FAMILY! ::This is why I do what I do!I’ve been photographing this family since 2008 and it’s such a joy to watch their love and family grow. Last fall we did a session with the crew and it was such a blast! James and Kristina, thank you for inviting me into your […]

Whew! Where do I even start with this amazing DC New Year’s Eve wedding at the Park Hyatt?! In my twelve wedding seasons, I’ve never done a new year’s wedding so yesterday was such a treat! Heather and Jeff have been a dream to work with- from our first meeting, to their Georgetown engagement session, […]

I don’t even know where to begin with these two! Elise and Randy had the sweetest backyard wedding. Five guests, two pups and a bride and groom. So perfect. E and L bought a house in Downtown Frederick in August and it was the backdrop for their vows. One of my very favorite parts of […]

Marj + Phil are married and it was the best! These two are so in love and it was so much fun to document their day. They live in Frederick (yay, Frederick!) and every part of their day reflected their love for this city. The weather was beyond perfection and we got to snap some […]

This was one of those summer weddings that just made you smile from ear to ear! After Monique & Stephen’s engagement session, I knew the wedding would be wonderful. It started with one of the most relaxed bridal party suites- Monique and her bridesmaids were so chill in the getting ready suite at Ceresvilel Mansion. […]
