My amazing hubs took me to NYC to celebrate my 30th birthday over Easter weekend. (my man is cool like that!) We enjoyed a fabulous suite at the Sofitel complete with champagne and the yummiest french press coffee EVER! Turning 30 was definitely weird. I feel kind of old now.
We also caught the show Wicked at the Gershwin which was just phenomenal. Those people can seriously sing. Here are a few photos from walking around the city.

After walking around the park for hours we stumbled upon the end of the Easter Parade (which we didn’t know existed). There were quite a lot of characters out, but the best was a large group of people dressed as if it were the 30’s. I was in LOVE with their style!





And then there was this sexy beast….he looked oddly familliar.

Anisha + Matt are getting married this fall at Strong Mansion and I am super excited to shoot their wedding! Anisha was referred to me by my past fabulous clients Tammy and Tim (who i randomly saw yesterday at fair oaks, hollla!)
We met up during the peak of tree blooming at the National Arboretum and I thoroughly enjoyed the lack of mobs of people. It was nice.

Jessica and Devon were married at the Hillsbourough Winery in Purcellville VA. The rain and chill came, and stayed, but did not dampen the spirits and love filled on this day! (cheesy, but true!) The details were romantic, chic and vintage. Love!

love

They were super troopers in the rain! Thanks to MB for holding the umbrella over me!

I am one who loves holding a good book in my hands. The smell, the feel of the pages on my fingertips, the words on the page. But WOW, the new Kindle commerical is so amazing it almost makes me want to go buy one!

Joey and I are headed to NYC for the weekend, YAY!!!! Here is something to put a spring in your step! Have a happy holiday weekend!
