Woo-hoo, I have been accepted into the Wedding Photojounalist Association! I am so excited!!!!!!!!!! They don’t let just anyone in, you have to meet their requirements ( i feel so honored!).

It is also a great resource for brides and grooms who don’t want an old school traditional photographer. Check it out! www.wpja.com

Today I met up with Becky and Paul at the Reston Town Center for their engagement session. Paul proposed at the fountain there so it has special meaning to them. They are getting married next month and I can’t wait!

We had some lunch at Rio Grande and then just roamed the area.
