PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS
Permits to take wedding photographs at historic outdoor sites must be obtained from National Park Service www.nps.gov. Most brides and grooms follow their photographers Drop & Dash suggestion which entails the couple and bridal party being dropped off at the site then dashing into their positions which the photographer has hopefully laid out for the photos in advance then all dashing back to their Car Cab or Limo before being spotted by the NPS Rangers who will fine all involved parties Scour books on DC to look at photographs of the sites taken at all hours of the day by professional photographers to be able to show your photographer Likes & Dislikes Hands down the most romantic photographs couples take are amidst blossoming cherry trees during the National Cherry Blossom Festival season. There are many cherry trees around the District in spots less conspicuous as not to have to Drop & Dash worrying about being fined by Park Rangers |
