Shahira + Evan | Georgetown engagement

Morning shoots are great! Although you don't get to sleep in, you do beat the crowds, the heat, bugs and then you have your entire day ahead of you to just relax. We met Shahira and Evan about a year ago at Marisa and Josh's wedding. Evan is Marisa's brother and both of them were integral parts the bridal party. They were also tons of fun and very sweet with each other. We were over the moon when we not only found out they were engaged but wanted us as their photographers! We cant wait for their amazing wedding and to see their families again, but for now enjoy our cool Georgetown Waterfront engagement session.

Stephanie + Jesse | Herndon Engagement session

Nothing but smiles and sass from these two and we wouldn't have it any other way.  We spent our session between downtown Herndon and Lake Anne just a short drive away. Herndon has a quaint yet familiar vibe to it. There are many little corners to discover and we had a really great time connecting with Steph and Jesse. Our next stop was Lake Anne, an area that they both spent time at when they were younger. Our final stop was Starbucks where they both worked together before becoming an engaged couple. Couldn't have asked for a better session. We topped the evening off with dinner and drinks at Not Your Average Joe's.

Cant wait for their wedding day!!

Jess & Andy | Glen Echo Park engagement

We don't have many rules on engagement sessions, however we do ask that our couples have fun and be themselves. Jess and Andy did just that! We spent some time at Glen Echo Park chasing light and some making our own. It was nothing but laughs, smiles and great conversation. We then had the pleasure of meeting Jackson, their loving beagle. Things then got more interesting as they changed into their flag football uniforms for some "family" night shots. The night capped off with a lovely dinner Bistro 360.

Zela + Jaymes | Love in Paris

A few months before we left for our amazing Iceland wedding, we connected with Zela and Jaymes in Paris about photographing their engagement session. This was our first time to Paris and we instantly fell in love. The food, the city, its beauty and history won us over! Makes perfect sense why Jaymes moved there to be with Zela. 

Though Kristiaan and I were fighting colds and we had a super overcast day to work with we loved photographing these two and wish we could have spent more time with them. Enjoy some of our favorites below as we navigated through the streets of St. Germain des Prés and areas of La Seine.

Z&J we wish you guys the best on you upcoming wedding!

Emma + John | Kennedy Center Engagement

We love Emma and John's history because we were there when they met at Ally (her sisters) wedding. Fast forward 3 years and these two are now engaged with their wedding right around the corner. We had a great time chatting and laughing with E&J as we walked around The Kennedy Center grounds and finished our evening off with some yummy pizza and gelato at Campono.

Every year we look forward to June 18 since it Lionels birthday but this year we get twice the fun with their wedding falling on the same date. Cant wait for the day to come!
