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.
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.
Jodie has the best laugh.
More fun weird stuff.
And also really pretty stuff. I'm versatile like that.
This was a month ago (they've been on a super-rad long honeymoon) so this was one of the first trees to bloom. We took advantage.
Congratulations guys!
Joyzeline and Ed were married under threat of rain storms, but no rain storms appeared. Instead, they had lots of smiling faces, some serious blossom action in Old Town Alexandria and quirky street scenes. Their family and friends gathered at the Carlyle House gardens to watch these two tie the knot. Joyzeline and Ed:
Oh, just me being weird. Ed's dad had to take a sneeze.
And then we made the fam go get cocktails while we took a stroll through the Carlyle gardens.
And wandered into greater Old Town for some yellow door and blossom action.
<3
Joyzeline was kind enough to play along for this one and turn her jacket inside out.
And finally, the newlyweds (ok, just Joyzeline) enjoyed a pre-cake cake at Lavender Moon.
Congratulations, guys!
Miranda and Josh got married at the resplendent (that's a new word on this blog!) Mexican Cultural Institute last month, amid scads of friends and family and minus frills and buffet seating and white dresses. These two threw exactly the party they wanted with all the things they needed - good food and drink, lots of folks, an amazing venue and none of the fuss. Miranda and Josh:
Miranda skipped a giant white fluffy dress for this elegant azure number.
The Mexican Cultural Institute has these amazing murals in the stairwell, echoing the Federal Buildings in Mexico City. When we met before the wedding to walk through the venue, I was floored (walled?).
And the rest of the house is really sweet too - that's an organ on the right!
Ceremony time in the indigo tile room. Miranda's dad served as officiant and they arranged seating so that all their guests would surround them. It was lovely.
Many thanks, as always, to Julia for coming out to work with me. A bunch of these are hers - she did a great job at this wedding!
Much love for grandmothers.
I love the guy in the back with his face in his hand.
Mad dance floor action.
Congratulations, you guys!
