When a session has loving parents, an adorable baby, a cut bulldog AND sweet grandparents…it was such a delight to photograph this extended family session. Little Lia was so sweet with her big eyes and adorable bow. It was a beautiful summer evening at the Basilica. We caught the last light as the sun set […]

I met the Vuong family bright and early Christmas Eve for their wintery session in City Center. I thought it was a pretty mild day but then met the family and found out some of them had just flown in from California. But they all did so well and we had such a great time […]

This family was simply wonderful! The Father reached out to me and said his full family would be in town and wanted photos of everyone together. These are some of my favorite sessions to capture. The littlest man stole the show and had fun aunts, uncles and grandparents to dote on him. It was the […]

I have photographed the Oksala family for years. When Lisa asked if I could meet them for an extended family session-with Grandparents-I was delighted we got a date to work! They were so much fun and incredibly kind. I even received a lunch invitation after. I try my very best to capture personalities in a […]

Meet the Patel Family! We planned to meet at the Library of Congress for their extended family photos. It was a special time, their smallest boy turned one that week and it was Father’s Day so they wanted the moment captured with family photos. It was a typical hot June day in DC and the […]

This day has been in my heart for several years now. When we first started to process our journey with infertility I remember browsing the web for any blogs or resources that would help me process my feelings. At that point I couldn’t find much and slowly started to share with others about it. I […]

The only way I know to describe this family is talented and incredibly kind. Michelle is a teacher, mother and amazing photographer. You can follow her here. It’s always a pressure when I’m asked to photograph another photographer, especially when they drive 4 hours for the session AND you are running 2 hours late due […]

I met Shilpi about 2 years ago in our neighborhood. Her boys are the same age as the children I nanny and they play so well together. I admire her gentle confidence and all the places she takes her children. They explore the whole city together! Enjoy her story on motherhood. What is your full time […]

I have known Sylvia for several months now. We met through a local church that hosts art classes every Monday morning. She is so soft-spoken, gentle and kind with her daughters. I knew I wanted to feature her for a Motherhood session! I asked her last minute and in two days we mad it happen. […]

Grace. I’ve never chosen a “word for the year” before but this year grace has resounded time and time again in me. We all need grace so much! I need grace from my husband, employer, friends and most importantly God. When ugly and hurtful things happen to us it’s so easy to react in defense […]
