I couldn't have asked for a more perfect first photoshoot since moving to the Washington DC area.


Julian messaged me on Facebook to ask if he could hire me to capture his proposal to his then-girlfriend, now-fiancé in front of the US Capitol Building while visiting her here in DC. While the sun may have gone down, Julian & Cassidy's spirits and love did not. It was a whirlwind of emotion, smiles & laughter, hugs, and everything you could hope for in a moment like that. A beautiful first ode to DC, I am so grateful Julian asked me to capture such a sweet love story!
