lian + mark laugh a lot. this is possibly my favorite thing about them – aside from the sweet fact that they are totally in love and so happy together!
this november lian + mark are tying the knot in dc with a big, fun wedding honoring a mix of traditions – i’m very excited to document their chinese tea ceremony, catholic mass and celebratory reception – i know it’s going to be spectacular! lian + mark are spectacular people – i am so glad i met them! mark is a dj and we originally met at tina + gerard’s wedding last year…once he + lian set the date, the three of us met over coffee and got along famously! i have been looking forward to their engagement session ever since, and although mother nature messed with our plans to shoot on more than one occasion, we finally secured a sunny day and it was worth the wait!
we spent the afternoon exploring two of my favorite places in dc: the national arboretum and chinatown. the arboretum was as gorgeous as ever, with tons of unique spots and fabulous light. it’s such a tranquil place – i just love the experience of being there, it’s so relaxing! afterwards, we wanted a little more action, so we headed to chinatown where they surprised me with their new custom redskins jerseys – so fun! we ducked in and out of alleyways and braved traffic to make some awesome photos, and i had a fantastic time.
lian + mark: i cannot wait for your wedding!! i know it’s going to be an incredible experience and i’m going to have the time of my life! WOOHOO!
