Kinnery and Matt: Washington DC Engagement Session

Sunny Mathur — Wed, 03 Nov 2010 18:39:58 +0000

It was one of those mornings, another to-do list to complete, meetings after meetings after forgotten meetings. To say these two are busy is an understatement, these two real estate rock stars have perfected the art of the conference call, the power of e-mail persuasion and the two minute meeting (McNabb would be jealous, yes a low blow).

But with all the leveraged synergies increasing productivity both in the real estate world and the wedding planning world one has to sit back from time to time and just enjoy each others company.

So these two put our appointment in their blackberries, marked it on their calendars and knew full well that on a beautiful autumn Sunday morning they were required to laugh, love, kiss and enjoy each other. Our engagement session took them to the National Arboretum where we walked around the Roman Columns and finished the session off in the Japanese Gardens.

With the blackberries off and meetings on hold these two were able to simply be. Be free of the stresses of the world and just enjoy each others company; holding hands, stealing glances at each other and falling into each others arms. Through our engagement session we were able to make some beautiful memories and get some amazing pictures to boot.

Kinnery and Matt, we have a wonderful time shooting your engagement session and cannot wait until the wedding!

Seena and Tony | National Arboretum Engagement Session

Sunny Mathur — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 02:53:45 +0000

We usually discourage our couples from conducting their Engagement Sessions around the crowded monuments in D.C., but when you’ve got a proposal story like Tony and Seena’s, you make exceptions.

Tony and Seena’s first date took place at Union Jack’s in Bethesda. Sparks flew instantly as the two talked about everything, from their childhood and families to future dreams and aspirations. Minutes became hours and before they knew it, it was last call on a Thursday night. Seena offered to drive Tony to his apartment but the two were not done talking. It was one of those obsessive feelings, where all you want to do is talk, listen and learn as much about the other person as humanly possible. That feeling where your tummy is filled with butterflies and your heart is filled with warmth and oozes with joy. Tony and Seena decided to walk a few quick blocks to the Lincoln Memorial and continue their conversation. It was here that Tony realized that Seena was the one.

Numerous dates later Tony brought Seena back to the Lincoln Memorial, only this time it was during one of the biggest snowstorms to hit the Nation’s capital. After marching through three feet of snow, Tony got down on one knee and proposed to the woman of his dreams, and the rest is history!

We started Tony and Seena’s Engagement Session off at the National Arboretum where we took stunning photographs of the couple in formal attire. Seena looked beautiful with her sari blowing in the wind! Of course our next stop was the Lincoln Memorial where we were able to capture some intimate images despite the record Cherry Blossom crowds!

Tony and Seena, it was an absolute pleasure meeting you two and photographing your Engagement Session in a location that was so near and dear to your hearts. We hope you enjoy your fabulous photographs and slide show!

Sheeba and Geoffrey | Washington DC Monument Engagement Session

Sunny Mathur — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 00:21:37 +0000

On the day Sheeba and Geoff came to drop off the deposit I could tell this couple would be fun. Sheeba had her lawyer game face on, culling through every line of the contract, dictating law and analyzing. Geoff like all men, was making fun of his fiance and trying to figure out what was keeping her so serious and entertained. As Sheeba worked, studied and calculated; Geoff made jokes, his sarcasm was fresh and witty and the two playfully fought as all couples in love do.

Our engagement session was no different, the two joked, laughed and truly kept me entertained. As usual, Sheeba looked stunning with a beautiful dress, eloquent makeup and her hair looked fantastic. Geoff wasn’t too shabby himself with khaki pants and a nice sweater. Although the autumn breeze was in full strength these two were absolute troopers in the cold autumn morning breeze, though Geoff, being the proper gentleman kept her warm in his tight embrace (awww…how cute!).

We love conducting our Engagement Sessions at locations that are meaningful and hold significance to our couples. To Sheeba and Geoff, Washington D.C. holds great importance. We began our morning at the National Arboretum. The grand sculptures in the background sure made for some luxurious pictures that will match the theme of their upcoming nuptials. After sauntering around the Arboretum’s reflecting pool, we made our way to the Supreme Court and the Library of Congress. The rich history behind the Library of Congress and the personal connection our couple had here brought goosebumps to my arms.

We had such a blast shooting around the city we decided to extend our shoot to one more location, the Capital building! While security was incredibly tight we were lucky enough to be able to get close enough to take some beautiful images!

Sheeba and Geoff we hope you love your pictures as much as we do! We cannot wait till your Jersey Wedding!
