The D.C. area is known for its springtime beauty! Every year, tourists from around the world visit the National Capitol Region to admire the cherry blossoms.
However, as a local residing in Virginia, I rarely commute downtown during this time to avoid the bustling crowds and city traffic. This year, even I couldn’t resist photographing the magical moment of peak bloom. I have completely forgotten how astonishingly beautiful cherry blossoms are, especially during the petal snow storm. When standing under a few cherry blossom trees while the petals are snowing down from the cool breeze, it really feels like a pink dreamland!
Nalani Quintello, a talented singer/songwriter and American Idol Top 48 alumna, was a total natural in front of the camera. “NXPhotography offers professional and quality images for any occasion. I am currently working with NXPhotography to design the album art for my next music release. Our vision was to create a setting that not only depicts my life residing in DC, but also encompasses my southern roots. Combining the cherry blossoms, country boots, and creative artistry behind the camera operator captured that scene perfectly,” she says. Nalani made this session super easy and we had a great time photographing her.
