I had such a lovely afternoon exploring Quiet Waters Park in Annapolis with this sweet couple. He proposed there. She suspected. They’re getting married on the water. I’ll be there. Love is cool.

Rawr.
Nardos and Danny are flying all the way across the Atlantic to have their wedding in Africa! But since they both live here, they wanted to capture their engagement photos in a unique location. Nardos saw my session with Luisa and Mike at the Arlington county fair and wanted to recreate the look but since fair season is over, we had to get a little creative. Glen Echo Park is this crazy old amusement park that has been renovated into an artists’ colony. You can get married there (hello, awesome venue!) and it makes a great backdrop for the right couple. These two totally rocked out the carnival theme.
I’ve got a shocker for you guys: most of my clients are not models. I know you’d probably think so, considering all my clients are outrageously attractive, but no, they are all regular old people, just like the rest of us. And like the rest of us, they think they are not photogenic. They tell me they are “camera shy” or get “nervous” when they have their picture taken. Others straight up dislike it. But, aside from all the technicalities of the thing, the secret to good photos is this: laughter. And these two have the laughter thing locked down.
