I had the honor of capturing Sarah & Amal’s romantic wedding at Antrim 1844 this March. Typically, when you think of March weather in the DMV, one word comes to mind: unpredictable. I remember chatting with Sarah the first time we met about what the weather may be like on their big day — rain, of course, […]

Last week, I met up with Katie & Will just before dawn to shoot their engagement photos at the iconic Jefferson Memorial. Permit in hand, we were ready to fight the crowds as their session date originally fell during the predicted “peak bloom” of the cherry blossoms. Luckily for us, the bloom date kept getting […]

I occasionally have clients ask if I recommend bringing any props to their session and generally, my advice is no! I know that […]

Madison and Corey’s wedding was inspired by their venue, The Retreat at Cool Spring, in Bluemont, VA.  They selected this specific venue because they both are drawn to the warm, but formal interiors of traditional southern homes.
