The Hay Adams | Kate + Mike

Kate and Mike were married on one of the most gorgeous days this fall, and I was so honored to capture their incredible celebration! These two met while they were in school at Georgetown University, and they both currently work on Capitol Hill. DC is definitely an important part of their relationship, and I love how much their wedding day highlighted the beauty of the city!

It’s always so wonderful to witness all of the special relationships that surround a couple on their wedding day, and Kate and Mike’s celebration was no different. I loved getting to know their family and friends, and it was wonderful to see the excitement and joy of all of their guests. (Mike’s family is also from Warrenton, so that connection was extra special for me!) I couldn’t have asked for a more amazing bride and groom, and I was so happy to capture every minute of their wedding day.

I started my day with Kate and all of her girls at The Hay Adams. The view from her suite couldn’t have been more amazing!

I love this impromptu moment before we left for the church. Kate, you are stunning!

Kate and Mike held their ceremony at the lovely St. Joseph’s on Capitol Hill.

After the ceremony, we headed to the U.S. Capitol Grounds for some photos of the bride and groom with their entire wedding party.

For a beautiful view of DC, it doesn’t get any better than the top of the Hay Adams.
