When looking at the forecast Maria & Grant weren't scared off by the impending thunderstorm... So our sessions started sunny and then the clouds rolled in and it poured. If these pictures were in order of time it would show the weather progression pretty clearly. I was so happy to shoot in the rain, and I love the different types of images we got. Super excited for their upcoming wedding in May!
Katriel & Grant's Sunset Engagement
It's been too long since I've kept up with blogging my most recent work, so I'm going to try to catch up in the next few weeks! I just photographed Katriel & Grant's wedding two weeks ago, but realized I hadn't even posted their engagement session yet! These are two of the sweetest people you'll ever meet, and I had so much fun shooting at golden hour with them. Kat's gorgeous smile lit up my lens, and I'm thrilled to share their wedding day photos soon!
Ashley & Kyle's Capitol Hill Engagement
I had so much fun shooting with these two! They're both D.C. natives who were up for walking around the Navy Yard and Capitol Hill areas for all of my photo ideas. The weather turned out perfectly and we shot until sunset. Can't wait until their wedding in May!
Laura & Everett's Beachside Charleston Wedding
Laura & Everett couldn't have picked a better day for a wedding. There was a perfect ocean breeze all day, and almost no humidity (rare for Charleston). Their beautiful beachside wedding was held right before sunset, which gave the whole ceremony a beautiful glow. I love the relaxed but elegant vibe these two went for.

Loved the fact that these two were willing to kick their shoes off and go into the ocean for me! Congrats Laura & Everett!
Erin & Dylan's Mayflower Hotel Wedding (D.C.)
Erin & Dylan had the most classic & elegant D.C. wedding at the Mayflower Hotel. The suite where the girls got ready had a balcony with an amazing D.C. view, which started the day off on a perfect note. The bridal party was transported throughout the day on an old trolley for a ceremony in Georgetown. The Mayflower hotel provided the most elegant backdrop for their reception, and the night ended with a sparkler send-off.
