Yes! Its that time a year again, where we get up early and shoot all day the Cherry Blossoms at their peak! Date may change!!!! Yes! Its that time a year again, where we get up early and shoot all day the Cherry Blossoms at their peak! This year the peak is not know yet, so the date may change, see here. We will meet at the Washinton Monument Parking Lot at 6am. (9810 Independence Ave SW, Washington, DC 20024) Parking is always a challenge and Metro doesnt start running until 7am. FYI We will gather and chat, then start with Twilight landscape shots (6:44am sun rise) and continue as the sun rises walking around the Tidal Basin, East to West.  At 8am we will meet our models MLK Monument and start taking portraits of them in the cherry blossoms. So dual subject matter for one beautiful day of photography. Models: TBATBATBAPlease Note: If things go as planned with good weather, we will shoot in the morning.
