http://childpsychiatryassociates.com/treatment-team/thomas-hopkins-d-o Lisa and Nick are getting married this summer…what a beautiful day we had for their engagement session!! I loved hearing about how they met and the great proposal story! Lisa and Nick met online and she said that what made her notice Nick was the fact he was wearing a hat in his profile picture! The hat reminded her of the kind of hat that the characters of the game called “Guess Who” …I loved that game as a kid, and I have bought it as an adult and played it! (but I digress) SO, they definitely wanted to include hats in their photos! I am really honored to share Lisa and Nick’s summer wedding!!

neurontin 1800 mg Angela and Clint had a wonderful day! The rain held off until after sunset and everyone was safely under the tent!!Angela got ready at their home and Clint at a hotel at National Harbor. They chose to see each other before their evening ceremony…Angela picked their first look location, Belle Haven Park and Marina! What an honor to capture them seeing each for the first time on their wedding day…We could see the National Harbor from across the river! I loved their Bobble Head cake topper!!

FitPhotog 105 | A Personal Project
Photography is pretty physically demanding, especially wedding or event photography. Off and on through out my life, I have weight trained. I love the way being strong feels! And it really helps to be strong when you are carrying a lot of gear or need to squat or stand for long periods of time. So, I decided to get back to it!
I had been telling Mike about all these funny photos I have in my head that relate to exercise and photography! Today, I started my FitPhotog 105 project. 105 days of getting fit, body muscles and photography muscles! 105 days in honor of the awesome 105 Nikon lens! I plan to post here on my blog, Instagram and FB. I hope others will join me, but if not…I am content to have fun alone; )
The weight training part will be a 3 day a week full body workout…the photography muscle part will be a challenge to myself to try something new each week. I will post a photo (the finished image or a behind the scene) of my challenge on Instagram and may include a gallery here when the 105 days is done.
The above photo is the kick off photo for this adventure! The 70-200mm Shuttle Run… this is a take off of the shuttle run with the erasers! Remember that? I have so many of these crazy photos in my head; )
Can’t wait to do this!!

Take a look a these highlights from the shoot… these wonderful vendors created the many looks at Mount Vernon! Oh, one more note, we were are in love with the Ostrich feathers!
