Politics brought Caroline and Pete together in 2008 when they were both working on the presidential campaign that year. They quickly decided that they enjoyed spending time with each other much more than electing politicians and have been together ever since.

Time really flies. I remember that around this time last year the 4th of July fireworks show in the area woke Nathan up and it wasn't easy making him go back to bed.

As mentioned in an earlier post, Minyoung and I went to college together. We did the engagement shoot in Georgetown, Washington, DC. The wedding was in the Philadelphia metro area. The church had just recently completed a renovation and we were lucky enough to be the first wedding in the brand new sanctuary.

We also went to Hua Hin twice while we were in Thailand. The first time we stayed at Dusit Thani Hotel. Dusit Thani is a fairly big resort with lots of room. The second trip we stayed at Rest Detail Hotel, which is a much smaller boutique hotel.

It was a beautiful Fall day at International Country Club. It didn't count the number of guests but it was a big wedding with both bride's and groom's high school, college and graduate school friends. The dance floor was always jam-packed. It was a lot of fun.

Kat is from Ohio and moved down here not too long ago. She and Brian are both runners and that's how they met. The first time I met them they looked very athletic and dressed almost the same with one of those black polyester/fleece fabric outdoor jackets. Because they both love running, Kat planned a little after ceremony surprise for Brian where they put on running shoes and trailed off into the woods in the back of the main area.

First wedding of the year back in March at Newton White Mansion in Prince George's County, Maryland. The weather was incredible but unfortunately the ceremony and reception were held indoors. Although it was right at the end of March, I guess the venue didn't allow any event organized outdoors until April. Anyway, I couldn't have been a better day.

This is definitely not just another couple wanting to do a session in Georgetown. Let me tell you about Frank. Frank is avid StarCraft fan.

As previously mentioned, my journey from Cinque Terre to Rome was quite hectic but we eventually arrived in Rome at around 15:00. Since we were going to spend the next two days checking out the city, we planned to turn the afternoon into a retreat at our hotel, Rome Cavalieri—The Waldorf=Astoria Collection.

My trip to Cinque Terre, Italy. Hiking through Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. Rick Steves style travel with lots of photos.

My trip to Switzerland - includes visits to Gimmelwald, Interlaken, Spiez, Berner Oberland. Rick Steves style travel with lots of photos.

After 3 days in London, we spent 2 days and 3 nights in Paris staying at Hilton Arc de Triomphe, which is a block an a half from the Courcelles metro stop. Hilton Arc de Triomphe really deserves the name Hilton unlike the dirty ghetto rundown Hilton Valley Forge in King of Prussia, PA (now Dolce Hotel). It's clean, nicely decorated, and located in a good neighborhood. It also has a great executive lounge with an open-air seating area. Our room was nice, roomy and clean.

We flew a morning flight into London Heathrow and arrived in the evening so that we could get a good night sleep. The plane landed at almost 22:00 and after we were done with immigration we had to get some money exchanged, took a long walk to the Tube station, and lined up to get Oyster cards. We didn't leave the airport area until 23:30. After having a late dinner, that night we ended up going to bed at around 2:30 or so.
