As a DC engagement photographer, I’ve had the privilege of capturing some of life’s most meaningful moments, often in spaces reserved for only the closest family and friends. Being trusted to document these intimate connections is what makes this work so special to me.

DC engagement Photographer

I am a passionate photographer with over a decade of experience, starting from high school film photography to becoming an award-winning Air Force photojournalist. As a DC engagement photographer, I specialize in capturing authentic and timeless moments that reflect your unique story and connection.

I offer engagement shoots, wedding day coverage, and post-wedding editing with a commitment to exceptional service. Whether you’re envisioning your engagement photos at iconic DC locations like the National Mall, Georgetown Waterfront, the C&O Canal, or the vibrant streets near Union Station, I’ll work with you to find the perfect backdrop that matches your style. My love for film photography adds a timeless, artistic aesthetic to your special moments, blending creativity with emotion.

As your DC engagement photographer, my goal is to create images that not only preserve your memories but transport you back to those meaningful moments for years to come. Let’s make your vision come to life in the heart of Washington, DC!

The wedding photos and video are so incredibly beautiful. We had an absolutely incredible time and seeing it captured through your lens makes my heart explode. I've said it before and I'll say it again, your talent is incredible. Your ability to capture moments in time is magical. I could not be more obsessed with these if I tried.

We LOVE our photos! We worked with Delano, who was super friendly and made us feel very comfortable. He captured all of the important moments that day, and we love the photos he took. He managed to photograph almost all of our guests at the reception, so it's been really fun to share those photos with friends and family. 

""Hands down the best photographer!!!""
