Katie & I met in high school, so when she contacted me about shooting her and Sam's wedding, I knew from that moment that it'd be a fantastic day. Katie is the epitome of a laid-back bride and I can't appreciate that enough! She arrived at the venue with a smile on her face and that smile only grew bigger as the day progressed.
Katie & Sam, you two were two of my most favorite people to photograph, hands down. It's also wonderfully clear how happy the two of you are together. Thank you for trusting me with your wedding day!
Bevin & Brian's Washington DC Wedding, 5.9.2015
From the moment I met up with Bevin & Brian on their wedding day, I knew it was going to be magical. Though they had not seen each other that morning, their glowing smiles matched perfectly. It was a day filled with sunshine, donuts, laughter, mimosas, and love.
Bevin & Brian, you two were a dream to work with. Thank you for the blessing of asking me to capture your beautiful day.
Flowers: Shelly @ The Flower Biz

The day started at the Courtyard Washington Embassy Row Hotel, at least for the ladies.
Brian and his brother (and best man) Adam started off the morning at the Grooming Lounge.
The wedding was held at St. Thomas Apostle Catholic Church in Woodley Park.
And as the last dance was Don't You (Forget About Me) by Simple Minds...
Reecie & Aaron's Oregon City Wedding, 5.24.2015
Over Memorial Day, I flew to Oregon to photograph Reecie & Aaron's lovely wedding, held in the Tumwater Room at the Museum of the Oregon Territory, with beautiful views of the Willamette River and Willamette Falls.
The love between the two of them clearly triumphed over any worries of the day. It was magical. Reecie and Aaron's family & friends made me feel like family right from the first moment I met them.
Reecie & Aaron, you two are amazing. Thank you so much for asking me to be a part of your day!
And now, the good stuff!
We started the day at the Dosha salon. Seriously the coolest place to get hair and make-up done - look at the cool mirrors and lights! The stylists and makeup artists did such a great job too.
After a lunch break, we trekked to the Tumwater Room. Such pretty flowers surrounded the museum, I couldn't help but take advantage of them.
The vows were exchanged and the glass was broken in the gorgeous Tumwater Room.
The two families meshed together quite wonderfully - I wish all family formals were this fun!
The reception started with toasts...
Then the party started!
There was even a stormtrooper toss. Reecie had caught the stormtrooper at a previous wedding and wanted to continue the tradition.
