Caitlin & Chris Engagement Session

Caitlin & Chris were gracious enough to let me do the photos for their engagement session. The wedding date is set for June 19, 2010. We shot in Old Town Alexandria and made use of the vibrant fall colors, parks, swings, and lots of fallen leaves.

Marine Corps Marathon

My brother Jeff is a huge running fanatic - he's the manager of a running store in DC, ran a 100-mile race this past February - and ran the Marine Corps Marathon on Sunday. He ran 3 hours, 4 minutes and 34 seconds, which qualified him for the Boston Marathon in April 2010.

My other brother and I were on our bikes following Jeff around the course and making sure to snap as many cool photos as possible.

The course is beautiful and easy to navigate thankfully. Here's a few of my favorites and here's more.

Oktoberfest at Rustico

I can't decide if summer or fall is my favorite season but this time of year, I have to lean towards fall just because the weather is perfect, the colors are vibrant and best of all, Oktoberfest beers are in season!

Rustico, a fantastic restaurant in Alexandria, VA, held their annual Oktoberfest block party last weekend. The owners also own several other fine establishments in the area so a bunch of great restaurants were selling really good food plus Rustico is known for its beer selection so the beer was tasty and bountiful.

Cheers to good beer this season!
