I’m on a quest to make my little urban casa as green and sustainable as it can be!  Everybody needs a project, right?

So, I’ve been doing tons of research about energy efficieny and green roofs and rainwater collection systems and getting a little carried away with dreams of turning my roof into an eco-paradise.  But, I did something actually practical recently and had an energy audit of my house done.  I contacted Greener Home, of Access Green and they sent Grant out (super nice guy by the way…and he loves his cat, so I like him even better!) to look in all of our nooks and crannies and see where our energy is leaking out!  It was really fascinating and they just sent us our report with all this great info about ways we can make our house more energy effecient.  Check out this page from the report.  I love how you can see Grant and my infrared outlines in one of the pictures – I’m the one holding the coffee cup!  I’d definitely recommend doing this for your home – it’s really so helpful!  Next stop on my greening project is to have a consultation with DC Greenworks to determine a plan for my new rooftop garden – I’m so excited!

Reyna & Matt’s wedding at Seqouia is coming up so soon!  So we hurried out to Georgetown in DC at the first sign of spring weather and got some great shots!  Despite a bit of camera shyness, these two had a great time together and even, at times, might have forgotten about the lens for a moment or two.

We started off for a couple of drinks at Peacock Cafe – everyone there was so nice!

Reyna loves the cable tracks on O St, so we had a little fun around there.  We may have seemed a bit foolish when we were asking strangers on the street to shine their car lights toward the camera, but hey, it’s all about the shot, right?!

As dusk fell, the streetlamps came on and cast this beautiful yellow glow on everything – with the first bit of warm weather we had, it was really a nice evening to be outside!
