This was the first time I did an engagement session in a museum and I loved it! Normally it would be too dark inside, but the National Gallery of Art East Wing has a huge beautiful skylight that lets in all of the natural light. We walked around taking pictures with paintings that Greg and Larisa enjoy. And I had them dance in the middle of the museum which was awesome!
It is always special when I have the opportunity to do an engagement session for one of our close friends! Kevin and Colin have been best friends since high school and have stayed close ever since. Funny enough, Kevin was also the third wheel with Colin & Kelsey back in the day. These two have been dating for over 10 years and are now finally getting married next year!
Tommy and Allie are such a sweet couple. They were set up by close friends and hit it off! A year later, Tommy proposed at Loch Raven which made for the perfect spot for their engagement pictures. We started off with a few pictures in a canoe out on the water and the geese were trying to photo bomb the whole time!
It feels amazing to be shooting again! We are officially back in business after being off for a few months having baby girl Payton. Joe and Kristine are a very sweet couple who are getting married this fall at the Oaks! These two love to fish, hike, and spend time in the outdoors together. They also love to travel!
This was our last engagement shoot of the year and it was one of my favorites! Matt & Kristin have a cute little pup named Lily who we secretly think is our pup Sadie's twin sister!! They look so similar and are the same age, it is crazy. We did the engagement session in Old Town Alexandria and thankfully the December weather cooperated with us!
I have been a part of the Nevermore CrossFit community for over four years now. Time really flies! The people I workout with have become like family and I am so thankful for them. Emily & Joe are two of those people! A few weeks ago, Joe messaged me that he was getting deployed and wanted to propose to Emily before he left. I was so excited for him and honored to document the big moment!
Chris & Katie met through mutual friends and the rest is history. They are getting married next fall at Herrington on the Bay and can't wait to celebrate! We did their engagement session at their family home in Bethany Beach with their adorable pups. I can't get enough of our couples having their fluffy babies in their engagements sessions! It was a little chilly, but the dogs did a great job holding their cute signs.
I knew when I met with these two that I was going to love working with them! They have a sweet love for one another and can't wait to tie the knot next April. We did their engagement shoot at one of their favorite spots, Swains Lock! The fall colors were in full bloom and the weather was beautiful until the rain started pouring down at the end of the session.
Our couples bringing their sweet pups to their engagement shoots has become very common! We love getting to know our couples during the session and love meeting their fur babies. Finny was no exception! He was smiling for the camera all over the place. We did Mary Ellen and Tim's engagement session on the top of Federal Hill because it holds a special place in their hearts.
