I know how stressful it can be to choose and coordinate clothes for photo sessions. I thought I would share with you a few of my favorite dresses to photograph during maternity sessions. These are all dresses, long and very flattering. Petite Charlotte Floral Wrap Maxi Dress Light Blue Floral Print Maxi Dress Long sleeved, […]

When Lauren reached out to me about photos for announcing their pregnancy, I was thrilled! I drove to their home in Arlington and we had such a lovely time. They were so welcoming and relaxed, the best part about in-home sessions. I can’t wait to see them become parents! This little one is incredibly blessed […]

Honestly, this session was so fun and easy. They were the sweetest couple and just look at that beautiful golden! We walked around the basilica and casually talked in between snapping portraits. They are going to be the best parents and their excited was evident. Congratulations, you guys! I wish you and your family the […]

DC’s summer heat has been tricky to work around this year, but my clients have been very flexible with it all. The Cherry family opted to meet early in the morning and I’m so glad we did! We met at a little park tucked away in their neighborhood. It was the perfect setting, so private […]

The secret moments. The waiting. The wonder of soon meeting your little one.

John and Jo are seriously the sweetest couple. I knew immediently that they would be fun from their relaxed and comfortable personalities. We met on a warm fall day at the Meadowlark Gardens. John could make Jo laugh at anything which made it easy for me to capture real emotion during their maternity session. We […]

Sarah’s outdoor maternity session at the Smithsonian Gardens in DC was so beautiful. The soft morning light, her lovely blush pink maternity dress and magnolia blossoms complimented each other perfectly. The gardens were quiet in the early morning so we had the chance to walk abound without having to dodge crowds of people. Little Alana […]
