Photography Field Trip and an Announcement!

I mentioned in my last post that I had a crazy busy week, but would post about everything that happened soon. Now that I had my wisdom teeth out and have no option but to lay here, I finally have time to do that!

First off, about a month ago I got in touch with my dear friend Carly from college. I had a strong pull on my heart to reach out to her and let her know I was in the area. Carly is an amazing wedding photographer and also does community service photography projects in Ethiopia, where her boyfriend is stationed in the peace corps.

We decided that we would go on a photography filed trip. We met up and drove in to Georgetown, DC and just started shooting. It felt like we just picked up from where we left off in college. I can really see the Lord pulling on her heart and I’m so excited to give her a bible and teach her how much He loves her. I’m also excited to learn more about photography from her and have many more adventures! With that being said, here is the big announcement…

Carly asked me to be her assistant wedding photographer! Uhh, YEAH! If you have been reading my blog, this is my dream job. And I CAN. NOT. WAIT. to start shooting. I have my first wedding THIS month! Here is an engagement shot that inspired me this week:

Back to our photography field trip. If you ever get a chance to come to DC, make sure you stop in Georgetown. In my opinion, it’s the best part of the city. It’s always so lively and beautiful. And you know that cupcake craze that is going on? Well is all started here in Georgetown, at Georgetown Cupcakes! My camera ran out of battery half way through (bad planning on my part), so we shared Carly’s camera. Some of these shots are mine, some are hers- I can’t really remember who’s are who.

Ready to go!

Beautiful houses right on the canal.

Free pizza? Yes please!

A couple of shots around Georgetown.

On a complete separate note- David got put on the minor league team in North Carolina! North Carolina as in the state next to Virginia! Gah! I'm so excited. Now I will get to see him once every couple of months, rather than go a whole season without him. Yayy! Oh-and happy three year anniversary D! 

Happy Sunday people!
