About Mrs. Piglet

DC Adventures

February 24th, 2009 @ 4:11 pm by Mrs. Piglet

A couple weekends ago, my friend Jean asked our e-Photo photog extraordinaire, Inhar, to shoot some pictures of her and her friends. She was moving across the coast and wanted a keepsake photograph of her friends together. Selecting a location was easy. She wanted someplace representative of the east coast, and what better location than Washington DC?! So off we went on a friiiiiiiigid Saturday afternoon.

I wish I was camera ready because while en route to DC, we saw a couple of bridal parties taking pictures around the capital. One bride was dolled up in a pink wedding dress. That’s right folks. Pink.

It was windy. See the Ugg(lies)? Jean is the one who hates them by the way.

With cherry blossom season just around the corner, I’m sure lots of the local brides will be heading downtown for their engagement shots. I can’t help but be slightly envious of DC engagement photos. JE, on the right below, battled the August heat and took wedding shots on the Mall a year ago. Their picture ended up in the Washington Post. :)

In closing, I leave you with a link to our e-photo slideshow.  The quality stinks because it was created by yours truly.  I must warn you, it is cheeeese overload.  I’m talkin jumping shots, eskimo kisses, googly eyeballin’ of each other, etc.

Enjoy!

I LURVE having a DC Bride to follow! Even if you are getting married in Hawaii! I have been here for 10 years and always still feel like a tourist. The city is the perfect backdrop for a photo shoot! Glad you guys had fun!

I keep trying to convince my fiance to splurge for a DC engagement shoot (even though our wedding is in Atlanta). Still can’t get him to budge. *sigh*

I am super excited, FI and I will be doing both a DC shoot and San Diego Shoot. I will be foregoing birthday presents, and stuff, but I think it will be worth it to have pictures in DC, and also including our puppy in some of our engagment pics

@LzzNYC: photodex :)

@Gwen: i hear ya. i am such the tourist in dc. i still get lost and i rarely frequent the museums despite being so close. such a shame! must be better about that..

@DC Anna: you should totally do it! engagement shoots are quite reasonable… i think i saw a posting on the boards offering a free engagement shoot in the area… i’ll look back and see if i can find it.

@lobstergirl: always a fan of canine shots. :D
