welcome to my journal

Hi friend! My name is Jessica, I am a newborn and family photographer based in Washington Dc. I find it an absolute honor to photograph you with your little ones. I adore baby toes and that unforgettable newborn smell. 

Meet Lane Walker, the newest nephew in my family. We all got to dote on him over Christmas weekend. There may have been arguing on who got to hold him next. My family simply adores babies and it’s been a few years since we had one. All the nieces, aunts, and Grandma crowed into the […]

At-home Newborn Session | Washington, DC Newborn Photographer

Babies are the sweetest, but when it’s times two…how fun! These two were home only 2 days from the NICU before their session. They did so well and slept the entire time. Their big brother was so gentle with both of them…I know they have some fun times ahead.
