Happy Monday! How was everyone’s snow day this weekend? If you live in the DC/MD/VA area, you likely had some snow on Saturday. I’m not a fan of snow before Christmas because I like to enjoy every last bit of fall I can get a hold of, but I have to admit – it was […]

On this Wedding Wednesday I’m excited to share photos from Bryan and Searle’s Washington, D.C. courthouse wedding that took place last Friday! Bryan and Searle invited their immediate families to D.C. for a weekend of celebration, kicking off with their civil ceremony at the Superior Court of D.C. It was the absolute *perfect* D.C. fall […]

Happy Monday and happy autumn! It’s finally starting to feel like fall here in the D.C. area. Chillier temps? Check! Gloomy skies? Check! Periodic rain? Check! Leaves on the ground? Check! Lots of family photo sessions? Check! Can’t wait to share some photos taken over the autumn weekend! I kicked off my autumn weekend on […]

It’s Columbus Day! Oh, and it’s Monday too. Monday’s go a little easier when it’s a holiday… I had a busy weekend so this Monday is like a lil’ vacation haha You never really hear that, do ya?! This weekend was the kickoff to my mini session marathon weekends and I got to meet some […]

Sometimes this job seems like I’m getting away with something. Are you really allowed to have this much fun while doing your job?!

Kim & Mike put a lot of thought into all of the details on their […]

All of my clients and all of my photo shoots have a special place in my heart (my heart has gotten really big! Awesome side effect of being a photographer!), let me just say that up front. But there’s something extra special about coming full circle with clients and getting to capture multiple sweet events […]

I am SO excited to share these National Harbor wedding photos today! Olin & Sidney were married aboard the National Elite, docked in Oxon Hill, MD, on the Potomac River, while the sun set behind the horizon, just past the water’s edge. It was the most picturesque ceremony location I have ever seen & perfectly […]

I know it’s early in the day, but pop the prosecco! I’m ready to celebrate! Today is an exciting day because it’s my photography website launch day!! Sometimes you just need a little refresh, a smidge of an update, and that’s what I’ve done to Rachel E.H. Photography’s home on the interwebs! To kick off […]

And set the bar really high. Christy & Ramon were married this past Sunday & the meaningful moments had this wedding […]
