I feel so incredibly lucky to have been the photographer at Jamie and Ryan's wedding. Everything was gorgeous. Perfect. I was in awe the entire day. After the gorgeous ceremony - photos of which will be posted in Part II - they arranged for a limo to drive us around to the various monuments they had scoped out in Washington DC for photos.
OMG. I was in heaven. As you can see from some of the photos, we had an audience everywhere we went. It was like Jamie and Ryan were celebrities and I was their paparazzi. It was so much fun!
One thing you can't tell from most of the photos, is that it had rained all morning, it was wet, muddy and chilly and overcast. Overcast weather is perfect for photos - lots of shade and no squinting.
These photos are my favorites from our trip around the city after their wedding ceremony. There were so many I had to break their wedding preview post into 2 posts. So there are more to come...

Finley is One! And I was lucky enough to photograph her on her first birthday! When I arrived at their home, Mom and Big Sister Elsie were baking Finley a cake, which I am sure she devoured after I left! It was such a fun day, the weather was perfect and the girls were super adorable! It couldn't have been better!
Spencer & Libby - thanks again for allowing me to watch your girls grow :) They are such little sweethearts! I hope Finley had a great birthday! Enjoy your sneak peek!
These boys keep me on my toes!! Let me tell you, now they have running shoes...and boy do they take off! I love every minute of it though, especially now that they call me by name :)
Nick and Drew are now 2 and are super busy little guys...they don't like to stay still for long, I had to be quick! I love watching these little guys grow, it is so neat to see them every few months and capture their changes in photographs.
Now if only I can figure out how to tell them apart...thank goodness for plaid shirts where the pattern is slightly different on the pockets ;)
Carly & Seth - thanks so much for allowing me to watch your boys grow. It was great to see you all again! I hope you are well rested and rejuvenated from your vacation!! Enjoy!
