There is something so fitting about maternity sessions in the spring. The new blossoms and new life breath such hope and expectancy. I met the R family at Meadowlark Gardens for their maternity session. It was perfect with the blooming trees and lovely gardens. Little JJ is the sweetest boy and I’m thrilled he gets […]

This sweet family is welcoming their third baby into the world. I can’t wait to see how big brother and sister love on their new sibling. The gender is a surprise-which is always such fun! We met at the Lincoln Memorial for their DC maternity session. I love the view from on top of the […]

I’ve had several parents looking to book a newborn session with me ask if they should book a maternity sessions as well. I love when clients book both maternity and newborn sessions together for multiple reasons: I offer a Motherhood Collection including both a maternity and newborn.
