Amanda & Ben | Co Co Sala wedding | Washington, DC

Amanda and Ben are all kinds of globe-trotting awesomeness. But they bought it on back to DC for an intimate wedding at Co Co. Sala (where the eff does that period go??), which proved to be an incredible venue for weddings, right there on F Street. They tied the knot in a beautiful little narrow courtyard next to an old church and then ate up all the chocolately goodness on tap. And were ridiculously sweet. co co sala wedding portraits I love how DC is a low enough city to have these beautiful alleys filled with light. Who knew Co Co. Sala had a patio adjoining an old church they use for intimate outdoor weddings? It's a really pretty space. flowers from co co sala wedding bride walks down the aisle with her father at co co sala wedding scenes from a washington dc intimate wedding ceremony co co sala wedding in the courtyard washington dc wedding ceremony at co co sala photojournalism at washington dc intimate wedding ceremony co co sala wedding in washington dc wedding in the co co sala courtyard in washington dc first kiss at co co sala wedding in washington dc washington dc intimate wedding ceremony moment recessional at co co sala wedding in the courtyard street photography at co co sala wedding As a bonus, there's a tiny art gallery in the same building at the restaurant, and we were able to sneak in there to cool off and take some pictures with these awesome wall mural things. wedding portraits in a washington dc art gallery Then back to the courtyard to play with the beautiful afternoon light.

Liz & Ashwin | National Mall engagement | Washington, DC

Liz and Ashwin grabbed up the last of the magnolias, along with about 5 billion tourists. So after a handful of obligatory flowering tree photos, I took them somewhere a bit more interesting - my old stomping grounds of L'Enfant Plaza. Always fun when my peeps are up for anything. And double fun when they are all giggles like these two.  So looking forward to their wedding in a couple weeks! engagement session on the national mall engagement photos with blooming magnolias l'enfant plaza engagement session engagement photos by the national mall weird washington dc engagement photos engagement photography in washington dc washington dc engagement photographer
