Anniversary Session at the Thomas Jefferson Memorial: A Perfect Inspiration for Your Washington DC Elopement

The Thomas Jefferson Memorial in Washington, DC, is an exceptional location for elopements and intimate weddings, offering a blend of historic architecture and serene beauty. Recently, I captured a 10-year anniversary session there, which was particularly meaningful as the couple had missed out on engagement and wedding photos a decade ago—a decision they deeply regretted. This session allowed them to finally create the timeless memories they had longed for, making it a perfect inspiration for couples considering an elopement in DC.
