I've been wanting to get downtown to the D.C. Botanical Gardens for some time now, so I was so excited when Erin said she would be down for a shoot (also HELLO beautiful red hair with those gorgeous greens)! While the outdoor temperature in the city was hovering somewhere around 14 degrees, inside the giant greenhouse was a balmy 70+ degrees. Erin actually told me as we started shooting to let her know if her hair ever started to frizz! We had such a fabulous time making a day of it in the city with a couple of our other friends, and I am so happy with how this first shoot of the new year turned out :)
