This Colorful Fall Family Session was so much fun! It was speedy with such a busy toddler but sometimes that’s when you can capture the most expression. I met my clients at the Basilica in NE DC because I knew there was a lovely orange tree in full autumn glory. I photographed this family last […]

I adored this in-home family session for so many reasons. Having a session in your home allows the kiddos to feel at ease and creates a more playful environment. We started out in the nursery for some snuggles and baby portraits. Then we moved downstairs into the living room. I enjoy using the family couch […]

I found other blogs and Utube videos so helpful in know what to pack for my hospital stay for our first birth. It’s a moment when you don’t want o over pack but also really wanting everything you may need as you recover from birth. This is my list I gathered from research and talking […]

This Thanksgiving Day I hardly have words to describe my gratitude. A year ago we couldn’t have dreamed what this season would look like. I keep whispering prayers of thanks and feel so undeserving of this precious gift. I’m currently reading the book Gentle and Lowly about the heart of God and it keeps reminding […]

It’s hard to believe I photographed this winter family session in November. It was such a beautiful and mild morning when I met the L family at the Supreme Court. We started out on the front steps -this time of year you can shoot at the Supreme Court and it’s still shaded until 10 am. […]

My mother and sisters hosted the most beautiful baby shower for me in October. We met at my parent’s home and all sat together in the front yard. It was mostly family and a few friends form Pennsylvania. My twin sister Jolene knew exactly what matters most to me: a relaxed environment, pretty surroundings, good […]

DC Fall Family Photos are so much fun! I met this family of four and their favorite dog Moses at the DAR building downtown. I photographed them for the first time this past spring at the Tidal Basin when the cherry blossoms were in bloom. You can view that session here. It’s amazing how fast […]

This Fall DC Family Session was filled with the warmest autumn light. The kiddos ran and played under the tree making it feel so fun and relaxed. We met at Georgetown University and walked around the campus. It has a lovely lawn and trees surrounding the buildings and we caught a warm afternoon in October. […]

This fall maternity session was so pretty at the Bartholdi Fountain. The light shifts in the fall and all the greenery looks lush and vibrant. I love how this location gives you greenery and architecture to create an artistic gallery for my clients. After shooting a few at the fountain we crossed the street and […]

This Bon Air Rose Garden Session was absolutely lovely. I met my clients in the late afternoon giving us a sun-soaked session. The roses were in their fall bloom and simply exquisite. I photographed this family for the first time last year and loved how relaxed and loving they were with each other. Any time […]
