How are you getting to the church on time?!

Hey DC couples, here’s an important tip for you when considering (or not considering) how you’ll get from your getting ready location to the church…

You need a car service.

Relying on a cab or ride share does NOT work nearly as smooth as a designated car service.

A sparkling clean car/suv sized appropriately for your gown, with a skilled driver, on time and waiting for you outside the hotel is going to make a huge difference in your experience just before your ceremony.

We’ve seen ride share options go downhill fast. While sometimes this option works out just fine, there’s no guarantee.

And don’t forget to ask your church for a street parking pass that will allow your car to park directly in front of the church stairs, and for that space to be marked off for you.

Your car should arrive directly to the front of the church, hold until it’s time for your entrance, so you can simply exist the car, climb the stairs, and walk down the aisle.

Doing a church send off? This car then becomes the getaway car after the ceremony!

Into the weekend we go!

Is it a fun filled, jam packed weekend for ya?
Or a nothing to do but hibernate, restful one?

Either way, we hope it’s a good one.

See ya Monday!

First impressions!

From the invitation to the welcome champagne and seating chart… guests at this wedding were presented with consistent design and color.

We loved the simple yet thoughtful elements surrounding the guest experience.

Speaking of gorgeous locations where the light is always right…

National Cathedral is a DC location to consider for your portraits! While we know this location won’t be the right fit for everyone, for those who are searching for architectural elements and the play of light & shadows, this is a wonderful location.

What do you think? Do you love this spot for portraits?

Just heard the update about the Lincoln Memorial renovation… looks like we are in for a construction zone until 2025. 😬

We’ll feel the pain of not having this beloved photo location available for some time BUT DC is full of gorgeous backgrounds for photos. Worry not friends, we know the city well.

Looks like DC will get at least one more snowfall before the blossoms start to pop open.

We’ll be ready for the change of season when it finally arrives! For now we’ll be thinking of these gorgeous pink blooms backlit by warm sun…

As we move towards spring, timeline planning calls are the name of the game. We’ve mastered the science of wedding photography timelines… like a fun puzzle with room for DC traffic 😂

As we have these calls we start to look forward to all the locations and venues we’ll get to photograph in this year and one we’re especially excited about is

It’s still a favorite of ours.

File under wedding details we love: handheld bouquets.

Peonies are Maggie’s favorite.
Betty loves orchids the most.

What’s your favorite flower to find in a bouquet?
