Congratulations to Nada and Mina for having their lovely wedding featured in the 2010 Summer/Fall issue of Washingtonian Bride & Groom. I’m so pleased to have had my images selected to be in what is the fourth issue of the magazine which provides a great resource for anyone planning a wedding in this region. And thank you again to my friend and fellow photographer Brendan Hoffman who photographed this wedding with me and took the photo on the bottom left of the second page.
Additional pictures from their Coptic Orthodox wedding can be seen here.
Engagement Session photos can bee seen here.

Kristen and Larry had a lovely intimate wedding with sixty of their closest friends and family at the Halcyon House. The indoor ceremony was followed by an extended cocktail hour in the garden and then a seated dinner in the house. After the ceremony we took a stroll around Georgetown which gave Kristen and Larry a nice chance to relax and get some alone time.

Couture bridal designer Amsale Aberra shared her Kenneth Pool line with a captivated Washington, DC audience at the second annual Washingtonian Bride and Groom Unveiled bridal show at the Mandarin Oriental. Her collection is said to celebrate the bride who commands the spotlight, and this line, according to her web site, “allows her to express a more elaborate side of her personality.”
The atmosphere backstage was fevered but totally under control. I had an opportunity to go where ever I wanted to go and photograph freely. If only every assignment allowed this much freedom. Things moved at a very fast pace but there were some beautiful moments sprinkled in there.
I have to mention that Ted Gibson, who I had a chance to talk with the night before the show, is a very sweet and genuinely nice man. In the first image he is back stage listing to his introduction before the start of the fashion show.
