This year’s holiday session was held at my good friend’s office space on Capitol Hill. It worked out perfectly!

Wayyy After The Wedding Session

Laura & Ed were married one year ago on a fabulous island. However, they forgot to fly me in to shoot it and the pictures didn’t turn out well. So, they wanted to do an after the wedding session to make up for it. Ed’s attire was beachy and it’s freezing out nowadays so he wore a suit. Laura braved the frigid weather like a champ in her sleeveless dress. We were at Brookside Garden on a Sunday. Note to self – note to all – don’t go there on a Sunday! This was the most challenging session ever because there were people everywhere! Like Disneyland style everywhere. It was outrageous. But we got through it and the results were great.

Heather & Mark 11/8/08

Heather and Mark were married a few weekends ago at Mount Vernon Inn. The weather report predicted rain, but we skated by without spotting any of the stuff. The fall foliage was stunning – totally in full color that weekend and just breathtaking. The ceremony was at night and matched with the old fashioned setting, really set a mood. The reception was an affair of the children who all had a really good time dancing all night long. Oh, and they had the best DJ ever – John Paul Berry at Absolute Entertainment. Seriously, people, this guy knows his stuff. He travels the world in search of local, new music and his depth of knowledge on every type of music is amazing. I had fun picking his brain and listening to his travel stories. He goes somewhere fabulous every year and picks up new music. I want to be him!

This family session was of an established client – with the most beautiful girls ever. It was gorgeous out – the week before we lost all the foliage completely. I loved the brown dresses – they were absolutely perfect.
