My job is made so much easier when everything comes together like it did for Caitlin and Andrew's wedding at Raspberry Plain in Leesburg, VA. Amazing couple? Check. Beautiful venue? Absolutely. Guests who want to get out on the dance floor? Yup! I had an incredible time, and it was an honor to photograph such an happy and fun loving couple for Lovestruck Images. Congratulations Caitlin and Andrew!

If you've never had the pleasure to visit Saint Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Washington, DC, you're missing out! From the beautiful architecture to the gorgeous stained glass, Saint Sophia's was the perfect backdrop for Susana and Ilias to exchange their vows. Following their wonderful ceremony, the party really got started at the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner in Virginia. It was here that I learned about one of my new favorite traditions - pinning money on the bride and groom as they dance (and throwing money around those partying on the dance floor)! I have a blast shooting with Lovestruck Images, as you can see below, I think it made for some great pictures! Congratulations Susana and Ilias!

The Carlyle Club is one of the most exciting venues in Old Town Alexandria. It's got that old school Rat Pack vibe with more than a few modern touches that makes it a great wedding venue, which Jessica and Peter took full advantage of! Another fun wedding photographed with Lovestruck Images!

2012 was a big (and busy!) year for me - and not least of all because of photography. I got the opportunity to work with some amazing photographers, like Katie,  Jordan, and Erum, incredible clients, and somehow even found time for a person photo project or two along the way. As if that wasn't enough, I got engaged (!!) to the most amazing person I know - and I'm so blessed to be able to say that my good friend Jordan Bush was there to capture it as it happened. I also got to take a week off out in beautiful sunny San Diego, a place I'm sorely missing with the single-digit wind chills in D.C. right now. While I'm really looking forward to the new opportunities and challenges that 2013 will present, I'm even more excited to share the weddings and events that I was fortunate enough to cover this year.
