A Wedding in Washington, D.C.

Last weekend I had the pleasure to spend the weekend with Ingrid and Dan and their wedding guests in Washington, D.C.  Ingrid and I met when we were stationed at Yokota Air Base in Japan. When she started looking for a photographer, she called me.

To make the weekend even better, I found out about a photography workshop the day I was flying in – Friday.  So, I took an earlier flight and was able to learn about Lighting Techniques from one of the pros – Joe McNally.

The weekend was a whirlwind – from the airport to the workshop to the wedding rehearsal to the rehearsal dinner – a bit of sleep – then onto the big day.  Saturday was a fun and tiring day as I stalked the bride and groom and their friends and family with my trusty camera.  We all had a wonderful time!  After the wedding, I was able to stay in town for a couple more days with a college friend of mine Yehudi.  I spent a day hiking around DC (with my camera in tow…more of those photos later) and had fun catching up with Yehudi.  All in all a fun and productive trip!
