Washington DC Wedding Photographer | Loft at 600 F

This Washington DC wedding was definitely a career highlight for me! Meet Hunter and Kay. Two lovebirds that live in Charlotte that took a chance on me and hired me to photograph their Washington DC wedding! Their wedding date was actually my BIRTHDAY! I had no expectation of anyone taking a moment to acknowledge it, but when my Uber dropped me off at the girl's getting ready location, I walked into a Happy Birthday song from all of the bridesmaids and a card that everyone had signed! It made me feel SO loved and appreciated! What a good start to my day! Oh and the breakfast at the house I got to snack on didn't hurt either!Washington DC Wedding Photographer_0218.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0219.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0221.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0220.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0222.jpgAirbnb for the win!!

Woops!Washington DC Wedding Photographer_0250.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0253.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0254.jpgCherry Blossom season in DC was interrupted by a snow earlier in the week, but we found a few blooms here and there! It's still awesome to have a Washington DC wedding, even without them :)Washington DC Wedding Photographer_0251.jpgWashington DC Wedding Photographer_0252.jpgNow it's off to get married! On the Uber ride to the venue, Hunter mentioned that he never had the opportunity to introduce Kay to anyone new as his fiance. He introduced her to the Uber driver as his fiance the hour before he married her!, it was his last chance I swear these guys are so sweet.Is the Loft at 600 F GORGEOUS or what? Hunter and Kay actually MADE all of these candles out of wine bottles! They were a gift to each guest!Loft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0255.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0256.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0257.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0259.jpgIt's time to get married!Loft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0258.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0260.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0261.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0262.jpgAfter some family photos outside, the party began.Loft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0263.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0264.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0265.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0266.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0267.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0268.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0269.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0270.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0271.jpgLoft 600 F Washington DC Wedding_0272.jpgThank you guys for such a magical day and for bringing me up from good ol South Carolina to document it, it was SUCH an honor and will forever be a career highlight for me!
