Sarah & Tim | Georgetown University engagement | Washington, DC

Sarah & Tim are getting married back home, but live here in the District and wanted to capture some engagement photos for posterity at Tim's alma mater, Georgetown University. Georgetown is a really beautiful campus, and I learned that is partially because there is an endowment specifically for landscaping. So there's that. We did their engagement session on Tim's very birthday, the kind soul, so special thanks to him! It wasn't so hard though, these guys are all laughs. engagement session in washington dc engagement photos with georgetown painting mural Here's location #1 right next to dumpsters. I love how photography isolates - such that you only see what I want you to see, not the dumpsters in this alleyway (which was very nicely landscaped, obviously). engagement photos on georgetown campus washington dc engagement photography at georgetown university Location #2 by dumpsters! Sarah and Tim were such good sports for this one. "Walk that way and laugh out like you're having the best walk of your lives." This always works, seriously. Fake laughing is actually hilarious. candid engagement photography in washington dc engagement photography in georgetown engagement photographs in georgetown, washington dc Could Sarah's hair get any more perfect?

Rachel & Dane | Lynchburg, VA engagement

I was down in Charlottesville last week for LOOK3 (photo nerd alert!), so Rachel and Dane and I thought it would be a swell time to fit in their engagement photo shoot. These two love birds are getting married on down in Lynchburg later on this year, at what should be the very height of fall colors (fingers crossed!). Last week, though, we braved the heat and skipped around Lynchburg's really very pretty historic downtown area. And then we did trespassing and Dane found a tick on him, which embarrassed me more than when my car had a flat tire and he changed it for me. It was quite a day, all told.

Heidi & Jason | Hirshhorn Museum engagement | Washington, DC

Heidi and Jason are super mega rad and completely adorable together. They told me they were really nervous about the photo shoot and then as soon as I put them somewhere, they started giggling and hugging and being ridiculously cute. I get the distinct impression this one of those couples people are always rolling their eyes at and secretly jealous of. I'm really excited for their wedding coming up soooooon! engagement session in the hirshhorn museum washington dc engagement photos in a museum If the Hirshhorn didn't have a rotating exhibit, I might get tired of it.
