Nick and Sarah

They met at the elementary school where they both teach…there were many mornings where Sarah and Nick happened to walk into school at the same time and they started to build a friendship through those morning conversations…a few months later they went on their first date in D.C. and their relationship continued to grow! It was just under a year ago that Nick proposed to Sarah at Great Falls in Maryland. They went to watch the sunset after a nice dinner when they got to one of the little footbridges, Sarah looked down at the water and then back over at Nick and he was down on one knee! We took their engagement photos there in the Fall and I was so excited to get to know these two.

Sarah and Nick are so genuine and make such an incredible couple!  Their wedding day was such a perfect representation of them. I love how laid back and fun they are and it was a joy to get to capture their wedding day! It was a little bit rainy, but nothing could have distracted them from their excitement over becoming husband and wife! I love wedding days like that when the bride is just so overjoyed that she is getting married! They celebrated with all of their friends and family at a beautiful botanical garden and I am so excited to share these portraits! Sarah, you made such an incredibly beautiful bride…Nick, you are one lucky guy! Congratulations again you two! 

Thank you so much again for having me be a part of your day…I hope you enjoy a few of my favorites! And a huge thanks to Brittany for being my second shooter!2015-04-27_0001
