paula + jamal’s day was one of my favorites by far. their laid back attitude combined with their excitment to be getting married was the perfect combination for a wedding day.  their ceremony at St. Peter’s Catholic Church and reception at The Westin Grand completed their timeless day- everything from the detailed marble interior of […]

this wedding was another one i was invited along to shoot with kristi odom, and as always we had the best time! lee + jason were such a sweet couple… i kept catching them exchange sincere smiles and laughs when no one was watching. the two lovebirds got married at the st. regis dc, were […]

wow. what a party. michelle + chris were married a few weeks ago at Podickory Point Yacht Club and then partied it down afterwards at Chartwell Country Club.  and OH what a night it was!! these two were out to do one thing on their wedding day. and that was to HAVE FUN!!! i think you will see in […]

whitney + andrew got married a few weeks ago and held their reception at  grandview manor to celebrate with their closest family and friends! i loved the personal touches that whitney incorporated into the reception…from homemade table runners, to a candy buffet…and my personal favorite….the hired caterers that grilled and smoked bbq meat for the entire reception right […]

jen + aaron were a sweet and cute couple that i had the opportunity to shoot a few months back with Kelsey Thompson. walking into the bridal suite jen was beaming from ear to ear, and that smile didn’t leave her face until the last dance. she brought a whole new meaning to the phrase […]

medellin. the last stop. favorites:: 1- our hostal and all the great people we met in it 2- going to an underground salsa bar. the kind of place that has no sign on the door, and you would think was just a random abandoned building…until you go inside and suprise….salsa bar! 3- people from medellin […]

favorites:: 1- everything 2- the old wooden boats that completely cover the ocean 3- how it’s a beatiful beach…surrounded by even more beautiful mountains 4- the little old man with twinkly eyes who sold me my bracelets and when i told him i was colombian he gave me the biggest hug and said “welcome to your country” […]

favorites:: 1- being told the we would have to hike the last bit up the mountain to Minca…”should only take about 10 minutes” says the bus driver. Or almost 2 hours. 2- that same hike, bus driver leaves. enter huge rainstorm. not a sprinkle….not just rain…but hard pounding storm. no cell phones. and we aren’t supposed […]

favorites:: 1- getting a full tour of the city of baranquilla with my cousin and her crazy driving, all while praying the car didn’t die on us in the middle of an intersection. 2- spending the day with the entire beach to ourselves, and just talking on the mattress huts and taking silly pictures 3- […]
