DC Engagement Session – Kim and Jay
Engagement, Love, Stories Documented //
There is nothing quite like an afternoon in DC on a beautiful fall day! Before Kim and Jay’s DC engagement session, we decided to take some time to just be. We were traveling from PA after Susan and Freddie’s wedding and instead of driving back to Baltimore first, we went directly to DC. We always talk about how we need to go explore DC more often, so that day was the perfect opportunity.
We pulled up on Constitution Ave., took the first parking spot we came to, grabbed the blanket in the back of our car, and had an impromptu relaxing afternoon next to the Washington Monument. As we relaxed, we took in the sites and sounds around us. We realized that literally the world was surrounding us. There were hundreds of people who probably traveled from afar to take in the beauty of the city right along with us. In a field among the monuments, we saw a group of people playing ultimate frisbee. They were going about their daily lives and playing ultimate frisbee right next to the place that millions of people travel to just to soak in the surroundings. It was in that moment that it hit me… we are so blessed to be where we are surrounded by who we are each and every day! Sometimes we get so stuck in our routines that we forget to soak in the beauty that surrounds us!
Kim and Jay’s engagement session was the absolute perfect continuation of our afternoon of soaking it all in! It was a gorgeous fall day in DC and the leaves were just starting to change! We are so excited about their photos because we know that they will always be an incredible reminder of this special life that they are sharing together in the city that they call home. Kim and Jay are so incredibly sweet and so incredibly fun! We loved every single minute of our stroll through DC with them! Kim and Jay- thank you for sharing your city with us and taking a break from the everyday routine to appreciate it in an extra special way! We are so grateful for you!! ;)
