A wee bit-o-holga fun with Mike and Christina during their engagement shoot in Reston.

Working with fellow artists always leads to creative ideas which = unique images.

But you guys be the judges...

I love when I get the chance to actually GO to a wedding as a guest. Especially when it's the wedding of my best friend, the gal I have known since I was 12, the one who has seen me at my most awkward and ridiculous.

I loved that I was able to bring the Holga to Kathleen and Michael's wedding at the Henry House in Arlington earlier this month and create images when I wanted, but also just enjoy being in the moment of such a special day.

My trip to Jacmel Haiti this past summer is something I will not soon be able to forget. 

I am not sure if it was the people whom I met, the children I talked with and photographed or the beauty amidst the catastrophic disaster that made the most impact on me. 

Haiti is a place that gets under your skin once you have been there. It's a country that is lost, but it's people are resilient and courageous.

Ahh the amazing views at Hillsborough Vineyards!

I am so glad that Annie and Matt introduced me to this wonderful place.

A week or so ago you may have seen my sneak peek photos from Annie and Matt's wedding at the vineyards, and as promised I am excited to share my top (eh hem) 40 or so favorites from their wedding. I wonder if there will ever be a day where I can narrow my top favorites down to say, oh... 10 or so. It's just so hard when you have an emotional connection to such amazing folks.

These last few days have been utterly glorious, all that fall weather should be. Filtered sunny skies with puffy clouds, golden light reflecting off the changing colors of the leaves. That cool air mixed with the warm patches of sun  all of which really say fall to me.

I've been fortunate to be able to take advantage of these amazing days with my clients. This time of year is always super popular for portraits and engagement photo sessions, and this weekend was no exception.

Ah analog is always well worth the wait.

Kelly and Neils had their wedding this past September in Washington DC.

I was lucky to have the opportunity, and the excitement of my wonderful clients that lead to pulling out the Holga for a few quick shots during our time at the Capital and Regan building.

Here is what we created...

I have been playing with shooting panoramas with the Holga. This effect can be quite dreamy. I often times feel like effect leads to a storyboard of the day.

OK, I am smitten. I have fallen completely in love with both Annie and Matt!

Their wedding at Hillsborough Vineyards yesterday was, in a word... ROCKIN'.

What a great job all their friends and family did as well. This wedding was truly a collaborative effort and it showed.

More coming soon.
