Better shape up, cause I need a man… and my heart is set on you!

July 6, 2008 – 4:40 pm

What an awesome time we had today with Lane and Andrew (Good friends of Adriana and Ryan.) as they drove down from NY/NJ to have us do their engagement photos. They will be getting married this fall in Georgia and we could not be happier for the the two of them! We had such a blast with the two of them pulling out their own stunts for their photos and also playing along with a few of ours as well.

Soon after we began their session it hit me that Lane and Andrew were strangely similar to that of John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John in Grease! Now who doesn’t love that movie, even with it’s debut in 1978 (A year before I was even born!) it is still my all time favorite movie! Our historic little town here was coincidentally the perfect scene for the two of them to strut some moves.

Thanks guys for coming out and letting us capture some wonderful memories for the both of you!

John and Sara are going to the Chapel!

July 3, 2008 – 9:01 pm

Finally we were able to get together with John and Sara in order to shoot their engagement photos. It seemed like no matter how bad all of us wanted to do their session the weather, school, or scheduling would not cooperate. And even Tuesday was a close call on the weather as we began their session our blue skies were looking kind of gray!

Many of you may recognize Sara as one of the Finalists on America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 6. I don’t know who is sexier John (such the Southern gentleman he is!) or Sara… ladies unfortunately he won’t be a free man after the fall!

Stay tuned to see the very first images of their wedding released here on the RP blog!

Shazia + Zia = Shazia and Zia!

July 3, 2008 – 7:20 pm

We found it quite cute that Zia (the Groom) and Shazia’s names were that of one another, more perfectly said when Shazia’s best friend gave her speech and said that “It was a name within a name and that all along Zia has always been in her name.”

The two of them were married during a private ceremony on Saturday evening, followed by an evening reception on Sunday at the Sheraton Premiere in Tysons Corner. I must say that they certainly do have one of the prettiest ballrooms that we have seen in the area. It is a splash of contemporary within the traditional ballroom setting with a Mezzanine above.

They ended the night with a table full of sweet treats for their guests to package their own tiny favor from the evening. The funniest part about that is that Shazia is a dentist, it would have been too cute to have placed a travel size tooth brush and dental floss to go along with it

Quick shout out that is not to be missed is the decor by Mrs. Priti Verma with L’Ambiance. And to Elegance and Simplicity for the florals.

Now onto our own sweet treats for our blog watchers out there…

Rama + Neel @ Foxchase Manor

June 30, 2008 – 11:45 pm

It was so hot out, but still it was decided that the ceremony would be held outside and we were so happy they did! It was beautiful and stunning all the same. Decor done by the talented Prabha Bambri and day of coordination by Rebecca with Soiree Special Events. Everyone involved were troopers in the heat, Neel seem to have the worst of it as he was fully suited up although you would never have thought it looking at their images. We were honored that Rama and her family chose us to photograph their wedding, it was certainly our pleasure! Rama and Neel decided to do a photo booth for all their guests as wedding favors in which they were able to come to the photo booth and have their photo taken and immediately printed out to take home with them in a little keepsake folder provided by us customized with their name and wedding date on it! How awesome it was, we had a total blast as our Associate husband and wife team Benjamin and Jessica came to run the booth!

Jamie Sears, with A Simply Chic Event

June 30, 2008 – 11:08 pm

We had the pleasure of photographing Jamie Sears, owner of A Simply Chic Event this afternoon. We have had a busy week of coordinators we must admit. More the merrier as we say! We cannot stress how important wedding coordination is to our clients and typically if they don’t already have one booked when they arrive it is the first thing that we highly suggest!

I don’t think that everyone truly gets the purpose of an awesome and talented coordinator although I will try to keep it short I will list a few of the top reasons that we as photographers feel a coordinator is so extremely important to any affair big or small:

(1) They are like having a little pampering in your pocket all day long on the wedding day, seeing to it that everything is running like a well oiled machine. They are there to worry so that you do not. Better known to some as peace of mind.

(2) They help pull everything together when you are planning. Such as menu cards, favors, flowers, lighting, and all the other things that truly need to coordinate with one another to make your affair turn out just the way you envisioned it.

(3) It is pretty much a guarantee that whatever you pay out for their services will come back to you and then some. It is their job to be well connected in the industry and provide you with the most valuable resources for your wedding day saving you both time and money. Who was it that said “Time is Money.” ? LOL…. that could not have been spoken any truer than it was.

We won’t saturate the post with too much, however we could tell stories and stories of why a coordinator may very well wind up being your most powerful and useful wedding asset, but we will save it for another post another day. Back to the beautiful Jamie Sears!

Sofia’s debut with the Regeti’s!

June 30, 2008 – 11:01 pm

We had the opportunity to work with Sofia who is Claudia Lutman’s daughter. For those of you who are not familiar Claudia Lutman is a local Coordinator here in the DC area as well as Michigan too! She has offices in both states and is always on her toes! While here in DC she rang us up wanting to know if we would photograph little Sofia,of course we had a blast. Warming her up to us was the hardest part, but that did not take very long, she’s a natural!
