This rainy Washington DC Temple wedding took place a few days before Christmas. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the holidays than together with your new husband!

I know this is old news, but I am just getting around to talking about it because I didn’t know how to process it!  It was announced in February of 2017 that the Washington DC Temple would be closing for 2 years for extensive renovations.  I was shocked.  I was sad.

The Washington DC LDS Temple closed for renovations on March 3, 2018.  Since it was the last time it would be open for two years, it was a very busy day on temple grounds.  I had the opportunity to photograph TWO weddings that day!  I have never seen the parking lot as full as it was that day!    It was a blustery cold day, but Steven and Janette brought their A game!

Every season at the Washington DC Temple brings new surprises!  Andy and Julie’s “Black Friday” wedding, in November, boasted rich colored leaves that made for some pretty amazing photos!

I first met Diana and Rylan at her BROTHER’S WEDDING in August of 2017.  Diana’s mother had an unfortunate fall during the beginning of family pictures and had to be rushed off to the hospital to get stitches on the bridge of her nose.   We were all traumatized in the moment but after everything it formed a friendship that I am grateful for.
