Fairfax, Virginia

Earlier this month, the Peterson Companies contacted me for a Sip and Shop photography shoot at Fairfax Corner. Because I have done a number of projects for the marketing team there, I looked forward to making these images with them. We met on undeniably the hottest day of the summer so far! Despite the heat and humidity, the models assembled were troopers and did not let the conditions show on their faces.

In the light of newly passed legislation you can now carry alcohol through certain sections of the property. Following the directions on this website, it is possible to enjoy alcoholic beverages in one of the most walkable shopping centers in northern Virginia. Fairfax Corner on the positive side, is very pedestrian friendly. Being that they have many restaurants that are participating, I can see this being very popular! Especially if we have more days that are as hot as the day of this shoot. Thanks to Joanna and Crystan for reaching out and helping me make these fun photos for their advertising!

Happy 2016! During some time off for the holidays, I am blogging about some events from last year. September was the celebration of the Peterson Companies 50 year anniversary. As long as I have lived in northern Virginia, I have lived near, shopped at, or worked in a property created by them. Joanna from Peterson’s marketing has had my cover corporate events, property openings, and some other work at their centers. Thus, I was honored to cover this special event for them.

Being that their company has stayed in business for 50 years is an amazing accomplishment. Moreover, they have impacted the DC metro area with their projects transforming the development of the entire region. On this occasion it was an honor to photograph the founder, Milt Peterson who spoke to all the guests. Afterwards, the buffet from Silver Spoon Caterers was opened! Luckily the weather cooperated, and they had a beautiful evening at their headquarters for an event. Because of the good weather, the lawn games were very popular. Additionally, golf balls were driven into the lake! Although this was a company party, many coworkers seemed like family. Undoubtedly this contributes to their continued success.

Catherine and Bill – Virginia Wedding Photographer

It has been a very busy summer – so many photo project to catch up on the blog! I will be working to get through them as soon as I can. Today I have a beautiful northern Virginia wedding. Catherine and Bill had an amazing ceremony day with many family and friends attending. Her brother was the celebrant of the Mass which added to the special details of the day.

From the arrival of the bride and groom, they were both so excited to be reciting their vows at the church. After the ceremony, their family gathered at the Old Town Hall in Fairfax for some cool drinks and an energetic reception. This helped them show off their new moves during their first dance. The DJ had a great setup – I wanted to dance! When dinner was ready, the party was moved downstairs where the joining families had a chance to go around and meet each other.

I heard Bill say that he looks forward to the many get-togethers they will be having over the next 50 years! As the sun went down and the temperature cooled, we went out for some fun photos by the colorful fountain just outside. I promised not to keep them away from the dance floor for too long! Thanks to Mario Brathwaite for helping to cover this awesome wedding with me. Congrats to the bride and groom!
