I photographed this beautiful family in the fall, at one of my favorite places, Lake Accotink. I’ve lived in Northern VA for 34 years, and still, I feel like the seasons every single year are jumping right in my face saying, “LOOK AT ALL OF THIS DRASTIC CHANGE, GIRL.” And photography has become a reminder of the beauty in each of those drastic changes. Both in the actual seasons and when watching my clients’ and friends’ families grow.

Look at all of this drastic change, girl.
