Renee & Pat 1 year later: Virginia Wedding Photographer, Loudoun County Photographer

Sometimes do you ever wonder how life can be so good, I mean the pinch me this must be a dream kind of good?  That's how I feel lately.  Life is just good.  The primary reason why I love being a photographer is that I love people.  I love meeting new people, hearing their stories, seeing life through their eyes, and gaining new perspectives that I didn't have before.  It truly is the most satisfying job I have ever had.   I also love that what I do provides others with lasting memories like the …

Tram & Andy: Georgetown Engagements, D.C. Wedding Photographer

When I was a little girl, I had these super nice Vietnamese neighbors and they always made these yummy egg rolls for us.  I loved going over to play with their daughter Kim, who was my age, because not only was she nice, but the food at their house was so yummy compared to the American cuisine being served at home.  Mom, your cooking was great it was just very, well, American.  Fast forward a few years and I had the opportunity to study piano under a fantastic pianist from Vietnam.  Again, her …

Dan + Sherry Engaged: D.C. Wedding Photographer

When I first got an e-mail from Sherry, she informed me that she was newly engaged and wanted to announce her engagement to friends and family through photos.  I thought it was a great idea so we had to work quickly to get them done before my vacation. The session was scheduled for the day after what turned out to be a massive storm that wiped out power to most of the DMV area.  We were supposed to have the session at Great Falls but there were several trees down preventing us from doing it …

Highlights: Northern Virginia Photographer

Suffice it to say, I have been busy!  In a very good busy kind of way :)  I have had so much fun the last month and this month is proving to be equally great.  Last month, between foot massages and catching sleep when I can, I was able to capture 4 beautiful weddings, and this month, I get to capture 5 weddings.  And what I love about these weddings is that all of them are different and unique.  This week, I get to capture a Southeast Asian wedding that I am totally excited about.  You just …

Andrea + Pablo “Getting Married”: Loudoun County Wedding Photographer

Hanging out with these two was so much fun!  They are just the sweetest, nicest, most fun couple to be around.  I love that they wanted to incorporate their dog, Frank into their engagement session.  How cute is he?  Given that we can't have dogs in our house, I have to soak up every opportunity to be around animals, because I love them. Andrea and Pablo came as a referral from another great couple.  Referrals are awesome because usually they are just as great as the people referring and that …
