When these mamas invited me to their (freaking gorgeous — I even said at one point, “your decor is ON POINT”) DC home to meet their new love (and their puppy loves and their lifelong loves), I looked forward to our date on my calendar for a few months. You…

Sometimes blogging becomes a grounding exercise for me. I look back at sessions I did a month or more prior, and it pulls me out of the chaos of right now. One of my favorite things about looking back at portraits is that you tend to only remember the good…

It is the biggest compliment when clients contact me years after I first photograph them. I met these Arlington, VA lovelies as a party of 3, and basically threw my arms into the air in excitement when I heard about their new addition. They were on my calendar several months…

Ah, fall minis, the beginning of the holiday season, truly, for me, as a photographer. A great way for families to update their portraits and get a holiday card photo or two, and just to spend some time together as the weather cools. I photographed this family in the spring,…

This maternity session in Georgetown, Washington DC was honestly one of my favorite sessions. A passion project. I woke up to gray, rain, and cold. I texted this mama-to-be to let her know she had to bring a jacket or something… at 8+ months, let’s not get sick, okay? Ready…

The self-portrait to the left was me at Fostr Collaborative in Georgetown, Washington, DC (love you) early this morning, sippin’ on my Blue Bottle coffee. Quiet moments like this, to focus on organizing my calendar, catch up on editing, admin stuff for the biz, and also just soaking in the…

That is the line I will always remember about this session. “Worth the wait.” Mom and dad got the call that their son, Baby A, was going to be born, and they left the state to meet him. I loved talking with them about the positive adoption experience they had…

I met this family of 6 at 48 Fields in Leesburg, VA. I grew up in Loudoun County, if you didn’t know. I have this love/hate relationship with driving through farmland (blame my teenage angst flashbacks), but my heart was so happy as I drove up to this freaking PERFECT…
