Nick and Yasuko

Nick and Yasuko travelled from Japan to share their marriage with Nick's family in the United States, while hosting Yasuko's family who made the trip from Japan to join the celebration and congratulate the newlyweds. Nick and Yasuko both teach English classes to children in Japan, and quickly fell in love while teaching together. The couple also had a traditional wedding ceremony in Japan, where they have now returned to begin their lives together in marriage. Nick and Yasuko are very fun and easy-going, and were a blast to photograph! I know everyone will look back on their wedding for years to come, and here are some highlights of their big day!

All photos from Nick and Yasuko's wedding will be made available for viewing and print orders on my client site here.

Loudoun and Prince William County Public School teachers visited Washington Dulles International Airport to learn about the operational challenges and logistics of an airport. They will take this experience back to their high school classrooms this Fall.  Not only did I help give the different tours, but I also documented their experience.

Lufthansa 747-8i at Dulles

Lufthansa recently became the first carrier to add Boeing's new 747-8i, the newest and largest variant of the legendary 747 jumbo jet, to their air fleet.  Washington Dulles International Airport and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority invited fifty lucky guests to welcome the historic, first commercial flight to the North American continent from a vantage point aside the runway.  Guests were thrilled to see airport operations from the closest safe threshold on the active runway. The entire set of photos can be seen on my Flickr, here.
