Julia + Marc : Married Hotel Monaco DC Wedding

November 1, 2011 – 6:26 pm

Julia and Marc’s wedding at Hotel Monaco was stunning. We captured so many great expressions shared by the two of them during the ceremony. Julia’s used purple and silver for her colors and had the cutest details throughout. The venue has so many unique spots for portraits and the bridal party was tons of fun while we explored both the hotel and the city. They rocked out their formals in front of the Capital despite the cold and rain. We previously shared highlights from the guest having fun in our photobooth and if you missed them you can see them here too. These two make the perfect couple and it was a honor to be a part of it. We wish them a lifetime of happiness! Hotel Monaco DC Wedding

Julianna + Adam : Hotel Monaco DC wedding

December 3, 2010 – 1:02 pm

Julianna and Adam had a great setting for their wedding at the gorgeous Hotel Monaco in DC. These two have been dating for a pretty very long time and it was wonderful to enjoy their celebration. It was a great fall day which provided us with an opportunity to get a few outside shoots before the ceremony. We loved the emotion of this wedding and enjoyed that the dance floor that was packed all evening with guests that just let loose and danced. I can see a lot of Journey pictures from the dance floor and a few butt grabbing images from Baby Got Back. It was a blast! Congrats guys it was a pleasure!

Sarah + Julian : Hotel Monaco DC wedding

November 1, 2010 – 4:31 pm

Sarah and Julian were married at Hotel Monaco in DC. As I recap this wedding I reflect on their wedding I remember hiding behind my camera during the father-daughter dance but beyond the emotions of giving away your daughter and the tears shed during this wedding it really was tons of fun. Plus who doesn’t like a wedding where the guys are wearing chucks? Below are just a few of my favorites and a slideshow with a few more from this wedding as Hotel Monaco is really one of my favorite wedding venues.

Kate + Matt : Decatur wedding photographer

October 27, 2009 – 3:37 pm

Kate and Matt were married on 9/26 which ended up being a very raining day but these two totally took it in stride! Plus the Stephen Decatur House is a great backdrop for formals and these guys rocked it. We didn’t see any ghosts but it wasn’t from our lack of looking, I am sure it was because we were all so loud. Everyone danced the night away but by far Matt’s Dad stole the dance floor. I am still waiting to hear how he felt the next day. I am sure it was all worth it as it was a beautiful wedding and you can see the love between Kate and Matt. Matt barely took his eyes off Kate the whole night and she was stunning. Chris and I enjoyed being part of these two’s special day and wish you guys a lifetime of happiness.

Kate + Michael : Holy Rosary and Hotel Monaco DC wedding

June 22, 2009 – 4:10 pm

Kate and Michael were married on June 6th at Holy Rosary Church and the reception followed at the fab Hotel Monaco in DC. The ceremony was performed by Kate’s family priest and was such a lovely touch to hear all the history of Kate as she grew up. The ceremony was just perfect, the church is beyond beautiful. The couple had a rickshaw pull them away from the church as the guest saluted them with clappers and cow bells. Love it! Reception and cocktail hour followed at Monaco and the backdrop of this location is beyond beautiful. Kate and Michael choose to see each other before hand and grab some formals in the halls of the hotel. There is too much I love about Monaco I need to hire their designers even their carpets are amazing. Below are a few of the highlights, enjoy and congrats you two!

Laurie + Dana : Sewall-Belmont House Wedding

June 17, 2009 – 6:02 pm

Laurie and Dana were married on 5/30 at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church and Sewall-Belmont House in DC. Wow what a gorgeous day it was. They are both such great people and after meeting them you will see how they couldn’t be a better fit! Their wedding was surrounded by beautiful architecture that Dana loves which added a major element into this couple’s wedding. Dana made a beautiful speech during the reception about the history of Sewall-Belmont House and some of the history of DC. I loved all the personal touches and was amazed by the cake Laurie’s Stepmother made. Below are the highlights:

Katie + Song

May 5, 2009 – 6:59 am

Katie and Song were married in DC at the Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament on the 25th of April. Their reception followed with tons of live music and dancing thanks to the band Entertainment Exchange and they rocked the Hilton in Rockville. This band was awesome and even got Song to sing to Katie. I was very impressed and so were their family and friends. They didn’t get the typical April weather DC is known for but they were all still game to play around for formals. Katie found a great little location between the ceremony and reception at the Mccrillis Gardens in Bethesda. We had the little park all to ourselves. These two are really such an amazing couple. I loved hearing the toasts, they were differently one of the bests and gave me such insight to these two. Below are the highlights, enjoy and congrats to you both.

Susanna + Michael : Collingwood Museum and Top of the Town Wedding

April 22, 2009 – 8:41 pm

Susanna and Michael met each other in a library and decided to get married at the library of Collingwood Museum. They survived a long distance relationship and I was wowed by the love between these two is just honestly amazing. During formals they had me cracking up and thinking wow I have been married a long time. The passion and love was just great to be around. The ceremony was perfect and had so many meaningful touches. The couple provided me with plenty of time for formals and we even snuck into DC and were able to get some quick images at FDR Memorial. The reception was held at Top of the Town. I love April weddings the grass is green and so much is in bloom! The grounds at Collingwood are just beautiful. Top of the Town has the amazing city backdrop that the wedding guests just love. Even though I have lived in Northern Virginia my whole life I still love to look at the city at night. Most of the time you forget just how beautiful it is here. Below are the highlights and slideshow, congrats you two!

Sarah-Jane and Greg’s wedding 9/27/08

October 10, 2008 – 7:23 am

I love being a DC wedding photographer and shooting at amazing locations with great couples like Sarah-Jane and Greg. They were married on 9/27/08, their ceremony was at Dahlgren Chapel and the reception was at The Washington Club off of Dupoint Circle. I really thought these two were going to break my no rain streak. But to my surprise it only rained on the way up to the church for Sarah-Jane and then the rest of the day was perfect! Congrats and I hope you two are enjoying your two weeks in Greece.

Mary and Nigel’s Wedding 7/26/08

August 23, 2008 – 7:07 am

Mary and Nigel were married at Tregaron WIS, in DC which is one of the most beautiful locations for a wedding. It held a lot of memories for Nigel and a lot of his guests since they attended school there. The wedding held both American and Chinese tradition and was really beautiful to document. We really enjoyed all the guests and family at the wedding! Congrats you two.
