“So… I’m not sure this is going to work…” These were the words Evan said to us as we approached the Spanish Steps in Washington, D.C. After a long search of public spaces with some semblance of privacy, Sophie and Evan landed on the Spanish Steps just outside of the Dupont neighborhood in D.C.  There was only one problem. They were already booked! But since all we could tell was that they were booked for the entire day, we decided to go a little earlier than sunset, and just hope for the best! Backup plan in place, we were ready to change it up. Luckily, the photographer Evan spotted as he arrived just wanted a photo of the steps! We were in the clear!

We set up a First Look on the steps for Sophie and Evan. Evan’s parents and their Rabbi set up the chuppah. And just a few minutes later, Sophie and Even were married! Their Rabbi mentioned during the ceremony that Sophie and Evan always did things their own way. Their elopement was another example of how Sophie and Even take the challenges that come their way, and move forward together! Another example: they decided to go bowling to celebrate their wedding!

Sophie + Evan,

We are so honored to have been present for your intimate elopement! We hope that your bowling celebration was as much fun as it sounded, and that Sophie crushed the lanes in her dress! Whether you two plan a big wedding celebration in the future or not, we hope to see you two again someday soon!

With love,
Sarah + Hunter
