Sophia + Chase - A Washington DC Engagement Session at the Wharf | Best Wedding Photographers in Washington DC

2020 got off to a really rough start for pretty much everyone around the world. The pandemic did not only disrupt the social aspects of our lives, affect world economies but also robbed us all of our liberties. At times like these we are forced to take a step back and appreciate the things we do have, the ones we love and fortunately are now able to spend way more time with. I spent a lovely evening with Sophia and Chase as we traversed the city of DC making long lasting memories. I had a great time connecting with this lovely couple and truly value the time we g0t to spend together. Here are a few of my favorites from their Washington DC engagement session.

Chizoba + Noble - A Nigerian Wedding at Valley Mansion || Maryland Wedding Photographers

I once shared my perspective on the meaning of life; I said it was all about connection, connection shared between two beings in love, a parent and a child, family and friends. I have never felt a greater sense of connection to my purpose, my values and overall understanding of my place on this earth. I have never been more connected to the people in my photographs than this very moment. On this very day, memories were made and preserved in the lives of my entire family; cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews, closest friends, my wife and most importantly my Adaora.

I can not thank Chizoba and Noble enough for trusting me to be more than the cousin with a camera 😄 .

Whitney + Kenji - A Washington DC Engagement Session || DMV Wedding Photographers

As I get older, I have started to realize the importance of human connection. Connection between a parent and their child, connection between two people in love, connection between a photographer and their clients. Life is really all about these little pockets of human connection. We do everything we do just to end up connecting with someone. I am truly honored to have some of the greatest humans as clients, not great because of their personal accomplishments but great because of the simple value they bring in those brief moments of human connection. Here are a few of my favorites from the 2 hrs I spent connecting with Whitney and Kenji.
