Tamara and Melvin

redrosephotography — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 14:28:16 +0000

I just adore Tamara and Melvin! I was so excited when I finally got to meet them a week before their wedding. Lilliana (their daughter) is the cutest, bubbly little dancer and it was so much fun capturing them all on their day. The ceremony started at St Luke’s Episcopal Church in DC, and ended with a wonderful reception at St Francis Hall. Which was opposite the most beautiful garden. Tamara wore a gorgeous dress and I loved all the little details, the flowers, cake and the customized hanger with her new last name! What a pleasure it was working with Cate Buscher of Putting on the Ritz and Rachel Shaw of Plan it Perfect! Congratulations Tamara and Melvin on a beautiful wedding and many many years of love and happiness to come!

To love … I give my heart and soul,
in places where I lose control,
that space in life that leaves me whole.

Jane Van Doe’s excerpt from her poem sums up this beautiful wedding! What a day! Blue skies at last, gorgeous fall weather and a wonderful church for the ceremony. Followed by an amazing reception location, The Mansion at Valley Country Club. I couldnt help but smile from ear to ear as I witnessed the love between these two. Dennis was ecstatic and while Nikki kept amazingly calm, we all sensed their eagerness to finally say ‘I do!’ What a pleasure it was meeting their families, friends and what an honor it was to have captured this magical day! Congratulations Nikki and Dennis!

Church – Our Lady of Grace Church

Reception – The Mansion at Valley Country Club

Betsy and Melissa

redrosephotography — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 01:08:16 +0000

I first met Betsy and Melissa at a wonderful wedding I shot last year for Summer and Dan, their very good friends. I had an amazing time shooting them then and even more so for their own wedding! It was a pleasure capturing their love , their laughter and their care-free nature. Despite the rain (which I believe to always be a blessing), the ceremony was held at an old and romantic church, lit by candle-light in Washington DC , followed by a lovely and intimate reception at Maggiano’s. Congratulations to the both of you. So honored to have been selected to capture your special day!

Bethany and Bryan

I couldnt wait to shoot Bethany and Bryan’s wedding. Their enthusiasm and laid back nature, made our last session so much fun and I knew their wedding, would be the same. Celebrated at the Mountain Branch Golf Club, on a beautiful day, Bethany and Bryan exchanged vows outside, overlooking the golf course. Releasing butterflies and blowing bubbles following the ceremony were sweet little touches that as a photographer, I just love! Followed by a lovely reception with lots of serenading, laughter, tears (the happy kind) and cigars. Congratulations Bethany and Bryan on a lovely day and many more to come.

Many thanks to Lauren for assisting.

Sarah and Aaron Married

redrosephotography — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 02:41:39 +0000

What an absolutely sweet wedding. Sarah and Aaron were recently married at the Jefferson Memorial in DC and ended their day with a beautiful reception at Charlie Palmer Steak. We had the pleasure of shooting on their rooftop overlooking the Capitol. Despite the partly cloudy sky, we had an amazing view. But the most captivating moment of that day, was being witness to the love they share. As they say, Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. That was the love I was so honored to capture. Congratulations to the both of you! And wishing you many many years of happiness and even more love.

VOGUE ITALIA

I was absolutely thrilled to have had one of my images published on Vogue Italia’s website recently! It has always been my dream. I love everything Vogue. Planning ahead for 2012 and a world full of new editorials and tons of traveling.

He Swept me off my feet

Love is……Nikki and Dennis. Laughter, kisses and playful banter. What a joy capturing them on camera. Despite Irene battering the Sunflower field where we were meant to shoot, and having to change locations last minute, we had a blast in Monkton. The weather was perfect, and they both were open to having a fun session. I loved every minute of this shoot. Cant wait to capture your wedding on October 8th 2011!

Bethany and Bryan Engaged

redrosephotography — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 18:40:34 +0000

After rescheduling our first engagement session due to the rain, I was so bummed to check the weather and find out that we were to expect more thunderstorms! At some point on the morning of the shoot, I noticed that the sun was out and the clouds were clearing away. I immediately called Bethany and suggested keeping our session but perhaps choosing a location ‘rain friendly’ if it decided to pour unexpectedly mid session. We were lucky! We had a fun filled hour and immediately after, we felt showers, which quickly turned into torrential downpour! Needless to say, with the rain came an intense humid heat as we shot, which made for an eventful shoot. (Bryan rinsing his face with water from the Koi pond!), which had us in hysterics. Despite it all, it was a blast. Lots of laughter, kisses and a real privilege witnessing the love they share. Cant wait for their wedding on September 16th 2011!
