This was my second DC Cherry Blossom Engagement Session for 2019! DC Cherry Blossom sessions make for some super early mornings but are always worth it. Melat and Kinfu met me at the Jefferson Memorial and we walked around the National Mall capturing their engagement photos. How incredible are they dressed? Melat even had her friend who is doing her hair and makeup for their July wedding do her hair and makeup before their engagement session!! We met at 6:45am so I can’t imagine when they started. Talk about commitment!
The weather was perfect for a DC Cherry Blossom Engagement Session. I even met a tourist from CT in town for business who spend his morning photographing the blossoms and taking in the views before getting back to business. I told him he was blessed with the most perfect day!!
Melat and Kinfu are getting married this July in Alexandria. Can’t wait to photograph and watch them get married!

Every year, fall mini sessions are a huge hit with families! They’re the perfect way to update your annual family portraits and get beautiful images for Christmas cards. In 2024, these Fall Morven Park 2024 Fall Mini sessions sold out quickly, which is why I offered three different dates at three unique locations. Morven Park […]
What do you do when the weather forecast teases rain on your wedding day, but the skies stay dry—right up until the ceremony? If you’re Daisy and Adam, you embrace the moment!
