Catherine & Raz :: An Alexandria, VA Wedding

admin — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 21:50:35 +0000

The one word that comes to mind when remembering Catherine and Raz’s wedding is FUN! This group was on the dance floor the whole night!

We also had the opportunity to explore Old Town Alexandria for pictures before heading to the Jefferson Memorial for some classic DC monument portraits.

Congrats Catherine & Raz!

Jenna & Danny :: A Wedding at Hotel Monaco Alexandria

admin — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 21:47:22 +0000

Sometimes I feel like a broken record, but I really feel like I’ve been blessed with such wonderful clients who effortlessly manage to merge elegance and fun into their weddings. Jenna and Danny were no exceptions. Their wedding at the Hotel Monaco in Alexandria was so much fun. We took advantage of the hotel’s location to walk around the beautiful side streets of Old Town finding ideal photo backdrops for their portraits and the bridal party photos. The reception was another fun one full of dancing. Al of Big Al Entertainment made sure the dance floor was packed the entire night!

Congrats Jenna and Danny!

Rachel & Roman :: A Hotel Monaco Alexandria Wedding

admin — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 21:40:36 +0000

I was so looking forward to shooting Rachel and Roman’s wedding, as planner extraordinaire Pam Barefoot kept feeding me tidbits about all the wonderful things they planned for the wedding and the after-party! Although my expectations were sky-high, I was still blown away at how perfectly everything came together. One of the main highlights was the street fair-style after party, with everyone’s favorite carnival foods – funnel cakes, corn dogs, cotton candy, root beer floats, ice cream sundaes and popcorn! I’m not sure which was happier, my eyes or my stomach.

I’ve never seen anything like it at a wedding before, but Pam and her team at Atrendy Wedding have a way of making creative visions a reality. Rachel and Roman clearly put a lot of thought and effort into creating their perfect wedding (Rachel even designed the invitations!), and it was wonderful to see that vision come alive. Congrats Rachel and Roman, and thanks for having us document your special day!

Emily & Cathal :: A Reception at River Farm

admin — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 20:10:24 +0000

Emily and Cathal celebrated a beautiful wedding earlier this month. They were married at Good Shepherd Catholic Church with reception following at the always amazing River Farm in Alexandria, VA. Much of Cathal’s family traveled from Ireland for the wedding, and one of the highlights of the evening was the Irish dances that Cathal’s nieces performed for the couple! They were quite the performers!

In addition, the food was delicious (fried chicken!), the weather was perfect and the music by DJ PGee kept everyone dancing throughout the night. I was just lucky to be there.

Dana & Frank :: A Wedding at Hillsborough Vineyards

Dana and Frank had a wonderful wedding at Hillsborough Vineyards in Purcellville, VA. The rain held off just enough for them to go through with their outdoor ceremony, and the fog created a dreamy backdrop for their vows. Eschewing many of the standard wedding traditions, Dana and Frank enjoyed an intimate evening with good food, jazz, family and friends. Dana told me that the wedding was a blur, I hope these bring back some great memories!
