You may have seen Matt and Rachel on the blog before, numerous time. More often than not with their dog Frank! See their Yorktown Engagement Session from last year. I have always wanted to shoot in downtown DC, and I thought they would be the perfect adventurous couple to bring along! I was right! Rachel was thrilled with the idea and signed on right away, even when I told her we would need to do a “sunrise” session, starting around 7:00 am. They were such troopers! You can’t tell from the images that it was early in the morning and that it was a chilly 30 degrees (at least I hope you cant). We started at the Smithsonian’s Enid Haupt Gardens and then traveled to the Jefferson Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial all in Downtown Washington DC.

First stop, the gardens at the Smithsonian.
