A garden session in late fall or winter? YES! It’s possible! We found this top-secret garden right in the middle of DC, so you’d never be able to tell the season! They bring in all the trees into their orangery to keep them warm and it makes for eve

Posting images on social media these days feels strange. I'm going to try anyway as I want to send a positive message in the middle of all the crazy news we are following. I've lived in Cancun for almost 30 years and been in the wedding industry for

All this talk about not traveling has me daydreaming about, well, traveling.⠀ Currently craving a bowl of fresh lemon pasta and a chilled white wine on the Amalfi Coast. Anyone else with me?

Some places reconnect us with our roots. There are colors, elements, landscapes that simply take us back to where we belong. I've been thinking a lot about my dear Pau & Gus and their beautiful celebration in Bacalar. A destination in Quintana Roo wh

I'm really enjoying looking back at images from years past, and I am surprised by how much I remember about specific moments. ⁠ ⁠ I remember this ceremony vividly; Jenn and Ashay had multiple officiants who took turns leading different parts of the c

Attitude and perspective are everything especially in moments of uncertainty. We were thinking about Erica and Keith’s wedding day and recalled how they approached the moments with such positivity, so the day just flowed seamlessly. Now more than eve

The flatlay 〰️ One of our favorites to photograph, but also one of the HARDEST photos of a wedding day. Want to know the secret? Relationships and coordination!

As we spend more time at home, our friends take on a deeper and greater purpose in our lives! We are feeling an extra sense of gratitude to those, who are by our side in life’s bigger moments and even if that may have to be virtually, the love we hav
