One of the joys of being a part of such a big moment in my clients’ lives is watching them grow from there. I come in at a big transition, and sometimes I get called back in for other changes, like new additions. Shawn and Randall had Baby R just a couple weeks before I came to their house to do a few portraits and document a little sliver of their lives as new parents.

Kerri and Brian were married on their 19th anniversary. You just know when it’s time. They tied the knot on Valentine’s Day, at the DC courthouse, surrounded by friends and family. And then we hit up their Capitol Hill neighborhood for some portraits in their back yard and surrounds. Their dog is really soft.

It’s been a long time since I posted something personal that wasn’t travel-related (and yes, I still owe my loyal and legion readers the last Greece post). I should do it more often, mostly because a huge chunk of my readership are friends and family. (And as another side note, it’s always flattering when someone I know from long ago or someone I rarely see tells me they read my blog – especially considering it’s almost entirely strangers’ wedding photos! So thanks those of you that fit that bill.)
