2015 was a Busy Year! Blogs, Magazines, Publications, Features

January 12, 2016  •  4 Comments

You know when the smoke clears and the sparkle of the holidays starts to fade?

Suddenly, you have time to actually get to reflect on the last crazy, busy year of your work life? Well, HOLY COW! 

Today, we started a list of blog features, publications, magazine articles, websites, etc. We could not BELIEVE the number of images, weddings, proposals, events, portraits, engagements, and even commercial photography have been picked up and featured on blogs! Some of which we didn't even know about! And, we are always flattered when the talented vendors we work with choose to use our images to showcase their own work. It feels awesome to be able to support our frendors! ;) It seems we had a pretty significant spike in website features this year, too!

Check out the Photos from the Harty publications and fun from 2015! Bring it on 2016! We've got this! WOOT!

Huffington Post, 16 Of The Best 'OMG' Proposal Moments Captured On Camera

We will admit, when The Huffington Post reached out to us to request use of this photograph, we were a little shell shocked. We're not sure exactly how they found us or this photograph, but we were flattered and extremely happy to see the photograph of this gorgeous surprise proposal session when the article was published! 

This proposal received a ton of attention in 2015, as you'll see in this blog. It was picked up by several blogs, websites, and more. And, how could it not!? This couple is just SO ADORABLE! We loved sharing this moment with them! Surprise proposals are SO MUCH FUN!

Capitol Romance, Kim & Greg’s Patriotic, Red White & Blue DC Wedding at Hotel Monaco

As soon as we met this bride-to-be, we knew we were going to publish this wedding. The plans were just too good! Lucky for this amazing couple - and for us! - everything came together perfectly on their wedding day! The tea-length dress set the tone for a night of dancing while showing off the her stunning blue pumps. The red, white, and blue theme was done perfectly and Hotel Monaco was the perfect venue to showcase their DC-style. The surprise American flag sunglasses were a hit - and an excellent way to end the evening! Photographing this wedding was a ball!

 

Swooned Magazine

SPRING RHAPSODY: A ROMANTIC STYLED SHOOT AT D.C.’S MERIDIAN HILL PARK

In April, we got a great group of vendors together to create this beautiful styled shoot! We couldn't find a couple who was available on the day of the shoot, so Katie stepped up and brought her boyfriend, Arthur, along to act as our bride and groom. Sara hand dip-dyed the dress, which worked perfectly with the mood of the shoot! The blush-to-ivory ombre dress looked fantastic with the floral crown, created by Highway to Hill, and the backdrop, created by Capital Society. All of our vendors worked their little booties off to make this the perfect day - and we were thrilled that Swooned Magazine loved the photographs as much as we did!

Freedom to Marry, EXPLORING TENNESSEE TOGETHER

The recently submitted their wedding to Freedom to Marry and we were super excited to see that it was published!

How He Asked

Rachel and Chris' Proposal on St. Pete Beach - HowHeAsked

How He Asked: Chris and I went to Orlando for my cousin’s wedding in last November. We decided to make a vacation out of the trip and ended up driving to St. Pete Beach, on the gulf coast, to spend a few days enjoying the sun and sand before heading back to chilly Maryland.

We’d heard that St. Pete’s white sand beaches were beautiful and that the sunsets over the water were breath-taking. One evening, we were getting ready to go to dinner and Chris suggested we go out to the beach to watch the sunset.

We walked out to the sand, grabbed a seat, and chatted about nothing in particular as the sun sank toward the sea. Just before the sun slipped over the horizon, Chris got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I, of course, said yes!
 
We were both super excited and totally giddy about our engagement, we went to the hotel restaurant and celebrated with some champagne.

How He Asked: Ben picked Kayla up on the morning of February 8. He walked her into Aveda Salon, gave the receptionist her name, and told Kayla to be dressed and ready for him to pick her up at 3 pm. Kayla spent the next hour in the complete relaxation of a full body massage. After the massage, she was surprised to see Ben’s sister Amelia smiling back at her, with a lunch delivery! They sat and had lunch together until Kayla was called back for her next surprise appointment. Ben had also arranged for Kayla to have a facial and another hour of bliss.

After her facial, Kayla got dressed in the nice outfit and a pair of fancy new boots and returned to the lobby. She was shockingly ready a bit early, so Ben picked her up and told her that they had some “time to waste” before their next destination. It was a randomly beautiful 65 degrees, so they drove to Great Falls Park in Virginia. They walked along the slightly muddy path (while Kayla lamented “I TOLD you to tell me if we were hiking!”), until they reached a perfect spot overlooking one of the waterfalls.

Ben pulled out a gift for Kayla. It was a calendar that he designed especially for her, but she had to start in December and work her way backwards. Each month had a picture with special meaning to the two of them with the days of close friends and family member’s birthdays/special events highlighted.
 
When Kayla turned to February, the picture was of a small box with a beautiful ring in it and when she turned to look back at Ben, he was down on one knee!
 
Holding the ring from the picture and asking her to marry him! He says he was waiting forever for her to answer, which is possible because bystanders began to yell “OMG he’s proposing!! Say Yes!!!!” And of course she did.
 
Tears sprung to her eyes as they hugged, but Ben said “Wait, you can’t cry yet!” He turned and introduced her to Sara – the awesome photographer he hired to capture the moment! Ben & Kayla had their engagement photo shoot right there at the gorgeous falls.
 
Afterwards (yes, the surprises kept coming), her sister and best friends met up with them to celebrate and eat.

Kayla’s favorite part (if she had to choose) was how many details there were… even the ring fit! Just shows how thoughtful and intentional Ben and her best friends are.

Ben’s favorite part was that Kayla was completely surprised and that her reaction included her saying “I can’t believe that just happened. I’m sweating but I’m freezing, right now! I can’t even think!!” Kayla chooses to block that part out.

Capital Society

Highlights from the District Bliss Fall Vendor Social

Capital Society was one of the first Participating Vendors for District Bliss. We decided to do a mini photoshoot together when we met to go over designs. The home was just incredible and Shelli is a real stunner!

Pollyanna Events

Tips on How to Prepare for Your Engagement Shoot            

It's always flattering to be asked by vendors that you respect and adore for photographs to use for specific blogs. That's what happened with ALL of the following sets of images published on the Pollyanna Events blog, except for the surprise proposal. She shares fantastic tips about wedding planning and life, so we are thrilled to have been a part of several blogs in 2015!

Who doesn't love seeing their photograph used (and credited!) as a graphic for such a great blog topic!

Downtown DC Surprise Proposal

We were thrilled to work with Pollyanna Events on this surprise proposal! If you remember, this was the proposal with the bomb threat in front of National Treasury.  Here's Pollyanna Event's take on the day:

Love is in the air for this adorable DC couple. Today on the blog, we are sharing how this gentleman popped the question! 

We had just hit spring, the weather was warming up, and the cherry blossoms were almost at full bloom. The perfect time for a surprise proposal if you ask me, and were weren’t the only ones that thought that. We worked with the guy and the photographer (Sara) to plan every last detail and we were all so excited for the clock to strike “proposal time”! As I waited close by, the photographer was stationed at the corner of 15th and Penn NW, and for those of you that know DC, you know that is right by the White House. 

So, what are the odds of someone dropping off a random, suspicious backpack in the direct location and at the exact time the proposal was supposed to take place?! And what are the odds that White House security was on that bag in lighting speed closing down that entire area along with all surrounding areas nearby?! Very likely in this case. With our photographer being coy as she often is, she asked the police officer if she would be able to stay (even though they were locking down the area) because she was about to do a surprise proposal. And with no ounce of humor in his voice, the police officer said, “NO”. Luckily the bag was clear and the area was re-opened very shortly after it was closed (heart attack avoided!). I mean, thank God, because a surprise proposal was about to happen! A life changing moment! Ok, sorry, we get a little excited when telling exciting wedding related stories. 

So, as you can imagine, the proposal was perfect in every way. The couple was in their own little world sharing one of the most exciting moments of their lives and we were so thrilled to be apart of it! There is no doubt about it that this story will go down in “wedding history”.

Here are some of the photos from the beautiful proposal!

The BEST of 2014!

This one isn't a photograph, but a little blurb about how we contributed to making 2014 a great year for Pollyanna Events!

2014 was the year that we joined forces with Photos From the Harty and created the raddest social events company in DC which does vendor socials and couples socials. Forget the big overwhelming wedding expos, we are a pressure free zone focusing on fun happy hours while still giving you all the perks, just like an expo event! Check out all the details here.

 

Charm City WedHOWARD COUNTY CONSERVANCY WEDDING BY L.A. BIRDIE PHOTOGRAPHY

We were thrilled to be second shoot for super talented L.A. Birdie Photography at this amazing wedding! We love working with other fantastic vendors!

Charm City Wed: L.A. Birdie Photography captured this beautiful Howard County Conservancy wedding, and shared these words with us: “From the personalized crab mallets, Natty Boh wine glasses, and Orioles/Ravens cake, Karen and Jeff’s day was sprinkled with love for their city! I knew when I saw the details of their wedding that they would be perfect for a Baltimore wedding blog. Not only did they have these fun details, but also a gorgeous outdoor venue near Baltimore, surrounded by family and love and blue cocktails. Karen was a little nervous before she saw Jeff, but after they had their laughter-filled first look, they both relaxed and rocked the day away. Jeff is a Baltimore City policeman, Karen is a nanny, and I feel like this day captured THEM. It was a very fun wedding to photograph and I’m so glad they chose me to capture it.”

RunWashington

As most of you probably know, we've worked with RunWashington many, many times and we just love them. While we had several photographs included in their magazine over the past few years, we chose to highlight this image because we met this bride THROUGH our photoshoot with RW! And, we just love her!

2015 treated Photos from the Harty pretty gosh darn well; we cannot wait to see what 2016 has in store for us! We've already started making TONS of new memories with new clients, vendors, and friends! :)

Happy New Year!
