are some things that you just can’t plan. They are out of your control completely. Cherry Blossoms and traffic are two of those things. You never know when they will be in full bloom and you can NEVER estimate DC traffic! I met Jeff and Rosie at Jeff’s home in Vienna before their shoot and planned to ride into the city together since parking was going to be nearly impossible for two cars. We shot a few images around Jeff’s amazing home and then we hopped in the car! Rosie’s mom and Jeff’s mom were so kind to drive us into DC! We thought we left with plenty of time but if you’re familiar
with DC traffic, you know that it can really take a turn for the worse at any moment! As we sat in traffic, I saw the sun getting closer and closer to the horizon and my heart sank. It was somewhat overcast which means that the sun was going to disappear quickly and so I started preparing myself for the FASTEST eshoot in KJP history!
As we approached the city and the beautiful cherry blossoms, we were dropped off beside the river. I kid you not, all of a sudden, the clouds separated and the glowy light started to peak through! I knew we had about 20-ish minutes to shoot and so the three of us kicked it into high gear!
Not only were we dodging all of the Cherry Blossom tourists, we were also dealing with wind AND disappearing light! You’re going to be amazed at what we were able to accomplish in such a short amount of time!! Jeff and Rosie were such PROS! They were amazing and I have the pictures to prove it! It was such a fun evening together and I’m just in awe of our timing! Rosie and Jeff are in Syracuse and so this engagement session could only happen on certain dates. We just happened to pick the PERFECT date while the cherry blossoms were in bloom! I’m so thrilled with their images and I hope love my favorites as much as I do!!! Rosie and Jeff are such a SWEET, genuine couple… I’m so honored to be a part of this celebration!! xoxo
