Gwen & Elby-The Line DC-Roof Top-30.jpg

Even though the unprecedented time of this year has affected many people’s lives including wedding celebrations and also has heavily affected wedding photography in general, I am choosing to continue documenting love and life stories at weddings whether it is down-scaled and/or shortened. I hope that at least there is a person who finds the heartfelt moments of Gwen & Elby’s rooftop wedding in DC healing and touching her/his weary heart. Their touches and smiles shown amongst many black & white photos in this blog sprinkle a little fresh air of hopes and positivity.

As you enjoy viewing mostly black & white photos from this high school sweetheart’s wedding, I hope that these black & white images help you connect better with their moments solely through touches, emotions, moments, expression & such by limiting the color aspects in the frame.

Below is the very generous message received upon sharing the collection of their wedding photos.

“Ken!

These are absolutely incredible.  We cannot thank you enough for documenting our special day.  We've already forwarded to our friends and family who were in attendance and everyone loves them.  Absolutely incredible work!

Best,

Elby & Gwen”
