As you know, smiles and lots of laughter are a favorite for me to photograph. Crystal and Henry did not disappoint! Their laughter was off the charts. I’m not sure there was a picture that Nick or I took in which they weren’t at least grinning if not falling over with laughter. It was infectious,...
I was back at the Park Hyatt recently to photograph Jisun and David’s wedding on a beautiful day in early spring. What I enjoy most about the hotel are the clean lines but also the diversity of color and textures on the main floor. I also appreciate that they give me the freedom to roam...
Cristina and David were married at the Park Hyatt surrounded by family, friends and their charming cat, Mimosa. I must say that Mimosa was a delightful addition to the suite where Cristina and her bridesmaids got ready. I’m partial to cats in general even though I’m allergic, but Mimosa really grabbed my attention and stole...
Catherine and Charles were our first wedding of 2011. They were married at the Silver Spring Seventh-Day Adventist Church. I love the nervous anticipation leading up to wedding ceremonies — or in their case, amusing moments, but more than that I love to photograph the very demonstrative post-ceremony euphoria as couples walk down the aisle...
Valerie and Michael were introduced by their match making mothers who attend the same church — The Greek Orthodox Church St George, which was also where the couple was married this fall. I was happy to be photographing Valerie and Michael’s wedding on a gorgeous day. Once again, I got really lucky and was treated...
Erin and Bill were married on a stunning Saturday in September. Erin got ready with her mother and bridesmaids at the Monticello Hotel in Georgetown. A true first, the bride was ready before the groom! I loved the look of surprise on Erin’s face as she learned Bill was still getting ready while she waited....
Craig and David started their wedding day getting ready together at the Hotel Monaco in Washington DC. They made a short walk down the street to the Woolly Mammoth Theatre where they held their wedding ceremony and reception. They are avid patrons of Woolly Mammoth and even have their names on the arms of their...
Andrea and Michael started their wedding day on Capitol Hill at her parents house. The couple saw each other for the first time out in front of the historic brick townhouse. Shortly after that we walked to the Capitol and Library of Congress for portraits. My second photographer, Nick, and I looked at each other...
I photographed Alisa and John’s wedding ceremony at Saint Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral. I have photographed weddings there before, but this was the first time I had the pleasure of working with Father Steve. Aside from being a fan of Georgetown Cupcakes (he appeared in the “Greek Festival” episode of DC Cupcakes), he’s relaxed and...
Barbara photographed Kristen and Bill’s wedding on one hot steamy day! Their priority was to have a good time and take lots of portraits, so they started off on a portrait tour of Washington DC monuments and landmarks including the Lincoln and the US Capitol. There were some challenges. Not only was it rather toasty, but...
