Editing Break! Our cute little family took a trip to Skyline at the crack of dawn and although it was part work part play, it’s hard not to get captured by the views and healed by the mountain air. Played around a bit with these edits as I take a step into the Fuji universe and am lovnnnn the colors. From Sony, to Canon, to Fuji, I believe I’m at a crossroads butttttt I’ll have to decide after I get through this queue of edits 🤓🤓

Hope the rest of you photographers and videographers are finding some breathers too. For your photo lovers out there in the DMV, peak foliage has started! Get out there! 🍁
Okay, back to work! 🫠🫶
*sorry, not taking anymore fall photos this year 🥲

Do you guys have couple friends where you love them for eachother just as much as you love them individually? That’s Amanda and Richard. Both the same kind of kind, considerate, calm and down to earth, and the chemistry between them something I found myself admiring. It’s sweet, it’s simple, it’s full. I don’t think I’ve cried this much at a wedding, and I also think that Ive discovered what kind of music triggers the welling of such strong feelings lol. All in all, it was another sweet sweet shoot for a couple I’m honored to do this for, and am pleased with so many of these beautiful shots!

Amanda and Richard, I am so happy that it’s you 2 I get to share my own wedding anniversary with! Happy 10/19 - Cheers! 🥂

Victoria and Matt’s wedding at the exquisite Willard Intercontinental ❤️

From the moment I stepped in until the very last minute I was there, V+M’s day was a celebration I won’t forget. Jess and I were captivated by every detail—because honestly, it’s the Willard lol. But beyond the elegance, it’s always about the people. Victoria and Matt, their vibrant bridal squad—friends since childhood—and every guest, every family member, even their wedding planner, radiated a kind of warmth and joy you just want to hold onto. Feeling deeply grateful to have captured the story of two kindred spirits becoming one!

Shoutout to the dream team! Experience, suave and grace is but a few words i can use to describe this absolutely excellent vendor team!

Photo dump from the last few months and a casual update 🙂

Grace and I have been navigating the delicate art of balance this year, and it’s been amazing to discover I can actually relax! 🤓 For those who know me, Lovepersecond is more than just a business—it’s a deep passion that’s been a huge part of my life. My commitment to the craft and to our clients has often overshadowed my personal life, a reality that has, regrettably, eroded my peace and well-being. So after a couple of years of “okay I’ll do the balance thing this year”, 2024 is the year I feel like I’ve arrived. I’ve regained balance through actually adjusting our load limit and re-structuring the year. It’s hard to believe it’s already September, and looking back, I’ve felt so much fulfillment in working just as hard, loving our clients just the same yet being able to cherish my community, my relationships and nurture myself. The quest for balance is never easy, yet it unveils one of life’s most profound joys. As someone devoted to capturing fleeting moments, I’m continually reminded that embracing the present is one of the greatest gifts life offers.

The last photo is from Claude Monet, an artist that worked hard and lived it up with a house full of friends and admirers to his very end. He decorated his home outside of trends because that’s what he liked. I like that. There’s something in the way he lived his life for all of us. 🫶☀️

The magic of baby birthday aesthetics has truly taken flight these past few years and my heart melts as I capture these tiny, beautiful details that make each celebration special. I wish I had the time and space to do more of these precious celebrations and maybe … JUST maybe I will!

Also, it was such a treat to work with my very own wedding planner and decorator! If you’re looking for a girl team with the best kind of personalities and connections for any of your events, you really should give them a dm!

Have you ever listened to a song that transported you to a land of a million feelings? You know the ones that make you feel so many things at once: a happy sadness, a quiet excitement, dreamy inspirations and an urgency to listen to the song again and again and again….😂😅

As a videographer and editor, it’s the songs that make everythinggggg and my obsession to find the perfect ones for each of our clients can easily be one of the longest processes of the edit. But also, as I look back at some of my shoots that i never posted(like this lovely one!), songs from that summer season come back to me and so do those good ol vibes.

Currently listening to this song posted here on repeat, not sure why quite just yet, but if you’re a feeler like me, IYKYK 🫶

Also, we have been getting soooo many emails and dms and as we continue to balance work and leisure, it is taking us some time to get through responding. If it helps, we are no longer booking anything for 2024! DM for any quick questions and I’ll try my best to reply!! 🥹🥹

A little spring photo journal from a fun little trip to DC with our fams and friends 🌿 We DMVers usually don’t dare to venture into the city during peak bloom, so it was a pleasant surprise to see just how manageable it was. I don’t know if it’s because we went on a Wednesday at 2pm…or if we just got really lucky… but whatever caused such good fortune, I am so glad we were able to take a day to take photos for fun and see all the pretty flowers together!

Last pic: shout out to all the spouses/SO of photographers who end up unintentionally becoming professional photographers themselves. With all the “how about this time…can you just…”x10 😂😅

I❤️NY 🫶 Had an amazing engagement session in and around Central Park as I got to shoot at some of the most iconic spots 🥹 Although, I am more about capturing the beauty of the people over the scenery, the change of view was still a sweeeet experience. Thankful I get to be the photographer of this beautiful couple and now I am so excited for the wedding next year!

Currently on a train to NY for my last non wedding photoshoot of the year, and I cannot believe that it’s already the last day of November! With this tiny bit of time on my hands I thought I’d showcase just a few from some amazing photoshoots from the past couple months!

Apologies for any delays of communication. This is actually the busiest time of the year as we photographers get through all our wedding photos and videos and I am happily and stressfully in the zone ✊🏼😬🫠🥰

Happy Winter Days!!! ❄️

Loved this year’s fall themed florals for our mini session event! Thank you to all that participated and yes - I hope to do something like this again in the future! Make sure you sign up for our newsletter to get the announcement for 2024!

Also, I’ve storied this before but just in case you missed it, I’ve got my work cut out for me the rest of the year so I’m no longer taking any inquiries until spring of 2024. Until then - enjoy my belated posts and grab some inspo for your own photoshoots whether it’s with me or another fabulous photographer🥰❤️😘

Although most ideally want sun and shine on their wedding day, there is still something so romantic and magical about capturing photos through the rain and mist ☔️ 🪄 . Looking back at these sneaks from Saturday, I love how the lighting and the weather accentuated just how classic, elegant and beautiful Catherine and David were on their wedding day! Feeling grateful again to be a part of some of the sweetest moments of peoples lives - through the rain, shine, heat, cold, and whatever else comes our way! 😘

Shoutout to the awesome vendors that helped make their day possible!
