Jefferson Memorial Wedding / Vanessa and Jeff

the wedding of vanessa and jeff was a very special day for me. as i mentioned in their engagement session post they were some of the first friends i made when i moved to downtown washington dc and it’s been an amazing few years since then. i’ll let the photos speak for themselves, but let’s just say… you can’t go wrong with good friends, good food, and the jefferson memorial wedding location.
