Amy and Alan are really hip people.  She’s a graphic designer and he writes movie reviews for Brightest Young Things, a DC hipster blog.  I teased them relentlessly about the hipster things.  It didn’t seem to bother them too much.

Also, the National Mall is really cool.  I’ve done a couple photo shoots around there recently and have another one coming up on Thursday.  There are so many little nooks and crannies, weird sculptures, grassy knolls (yes, really – see below) and funky little spots.  It’s a great place to play.

Super-weird awesome reflection thingie in the Hirschorn Sculpture Garden.

Every “just because” or engagement session I have, I always take a couple headshots for each person – a new “Facebook profile pic” I tell them.  I think these are my favorites, ever.  I hope they don’t fill this sculpture thing in (it’s really a fountain) before my session on Thursday – I’m definitely going back.

Finally, Amy and Alan even let me play around in my parking garage.  I’ve noticed for years how awesome the light is.  Here’s proof.

Rock on, kids.

The framing on the shot with the vined wall is breathtaking. You did a fabulous job with this session, Amber.
