Marla and Eric are my very favorite kind of people to photograph. They were down for anything, as I will prove shortly. We take a few “happy couple” shots (how I refer to the smile-at-the-camera-and-look-pretty photos I take mostly for my clients’ mothers) and then we were off! They chose to do their engagement photos at Dumbarton Oaks which, despite being the site of engagement and family sessions every single day, is an incredibly awesome place to both visit and photograph. Every time I visit, there is something new to see.
Jess is an incredibly giggly person. Mike pretends to be serious and contemplative, but he’s just as cheerful. I had a blast running around Dumbarton Oaks with these two on an incredibly pleasant fall afternoon (don’t we miss those temperatures now!?) They were up for anything and I’m so so glad they insisted we visit this tree.
I’m so excited for Aimee and Richard’s wedding. The more I hear about it, the more it sounds exactly like the wedding I was planning with my husband, before we decided to ditch the whole thing and go to Vegas. They’re going to have s’mores and kegs and mason jar centerpieces… so I’m pretty much going to live vicariously through their day. They’re getting married at a summer camp, and so wanted to have some outdoorsy, pretty, “nature-y” engagement photos that would fit in well with the rest of their wedding plans.
