A few months back, we had the pleasure of shooting Adrienne and Jason’s wedding at the Inn at Little Washington.

The Inn at Little Washington is not located in Washington, DC but about an hour out in a town called Washington, VA. Confused? Don’t be. Despite being a short trek from DC (which really only adds to its charm), it regularly tops annual lists of best restaurants in the DC area. Their venue for weddings is quaint and has amazing views.

The day had a very classy and intimate feel.

Photographers get younger and younger.

 It was an emotion-filled day.

Our friends at the Inn at Little Washington did not disappoint.

With true DC flair and elegance, the wedding cake was decorated in-house with fresh cherry blossoms.

Congratulations Adrienne and Jason!

Two Seater

Our good friends Michelle and Adam recently tied the knot on the island of Jamaica. While location shoots are always fun, a destination wedding provides a great opportunity to capture special images of a special day.

Walk Towards the Light

Infrared photography can turn an ordinary scene into a unique dreamy look. This image is a slightly different composition from the infrared images that we typically shoot, but it was intended to emphasize the contrast between darkness and light.

Groom-Tan-Laundry

An editorial style also provides a different flavor for a bride and groom’s memories of their wedding. Versatility and quick thinking are two keys to successful destination wedding photography.

Bridge of No Return

Beautiful weather, amazing backdrops, and friendly people made this trip to Jamaica a great experience. Many photographers in the wedding industry consider destination weddings to be a perk to the job, but to shoot a destination wedding the right way requires a lot of energy and work. Ya mon!

We look forward to next month’s destination shoot in St. Thomas!
