Jodie and Ryan were down for whatever, so we made lots of weird photos. I enjoy that in people who have hired me to photograph their wedding. © 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com They got hitched at the DC courthouse, then we rolled down to the National Mall for gallivanting, standing in front of art and lots and lots of congratulations from the crowds. © 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com Jodie has the best laugh. © 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com© 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com More fun weird stuff. © 2015 Amber Wilkie Photography | www.amberwilkie.com And also really pretty stuff.

Allison & David | DC courthouse wedding

Allison and David got hitched at the DC courthouse, amidst a small but joyful group of family and friends. It was a balmy 27* out, so we skipped the outdoors as much as possible and instead hit up the National Gallery's modern wing, where they have been reinstalling a couple artworks I missed. These two enjoy a good "street" scene, so I concocted a few for them, with the help of the tourists. DC-elopement-wedding-photography-2DC-elopement-wedding-photography-4 I shoot at this museum a lot, so sometimes it's hard to think of new things to do in the space. But we took some new angles for these two. DC-elopement-wedding-photography-3DC-elopement-wedding-photography-5DC-elopement-wedding-photography-6 A quick jaunt in the classical side. DC-elopement-wedding-photography-7 This girl seemed to have no idea there was a photo shoot happening on either side of her. Modern, right? DC-elopement-wedding-photography-8DC-elopement-wedding-photography-9 Portraits wrapped, we took a very chilly walk two blocks over to the courthouse. Check out David's hat - very swank!

Meagan & Joseph | DC courthouse wedding photography | Washington, D.C.

Meagan and Joseph came all the way from Alabama to tie the knot in our nation's capital. It was a secret wedding for a few days, so they partied it up that weekend with friends unawares. Very romantic. Also, Meagan really knows how to pick a dress. Dc-courthouse-wedding-photographer-15 The DC Courthouse was the scene for our heroes' big moment.

Poor Meagan broke her pinkie toe a little previously, so she had to wear a brace thing. Dc-courthouse-wedding-photographer-9 But we switched it out quickly. My apologies for the stress, pinkie toe! Dc-courthouse-wedding-photographer-11Dc-courthouse-wedding-photographer-12 That dress really did twirl in the most fantastic way. Dc-courthouse-wedding-photographer-13 So, not gonna lie. I take this photo a lot. But it's always different and I don't know why! I think it has something to do with the height of my clients. In any case, I'm really glad it came out so well for Meagan, seeing as it was her one request.
