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. 

These family photos at Bishop’s Garden felt dreamy. The National Cathedral is one of my favorite locations to photograph at in all of DC. It offers beautiful architecture and of course, the stunning Bishop’s Garden. The garden had hidden stone walk ways, benches tucked in private corners and the stunning rose garden in the middle […]

Family Photos at Bishop’s Garden | Washington, DC National Cathedral

I love winter family photos in DC because the city offers so many wonderful locations even during the colder months of the year. The Supreme Court is one of my favorite locations in all of the DMV. It offers beautiful gardens on either side of the building. So many people walk right by them because […]

Winter Family Photos in DC | Supreme Court, Washington DC

I enjoy taking Washington DC family photos because the city offers so many beautiful locations to photograph at like the Constitution Gardens. This location is right off of Constitution Avenue but still feels calm and peaceful. It has walking paths, a wonderful view of the Washington Monument, willow trees and the lovely pond. It’s the […]

Washington DC Family Photos | Constitution Gardens, DC

This Arlington Fall Family Session gave me all the autumnal feelings as I finished my last few sessions for the year. I love the earth-tone colors and outfits my client chose to celebrate the season they were in. I have had the delight of photographing this sweet family for maternity, newborn and now 6 month […]

Arlington Fall Family Session | Arlington Family Photographer

This DC Fall Family Session was full of morning light and happiness. A toddler at this stage is always busy and will make any photographer work to capture their portraits but that is where the fun lies. I love the challenge of taking a few formal portraits but also the joy of movement and expression. […]

DC Fall Family Session | DAR Building, DC

This U.S. Capitol Maternity Session felt so special. I love photographing families as they grow and welcome new babies and new seasons of life. Little Naomie is soon going to be a big sister. She is so kind and gentle; I know she will be amazing at her new job. The only sad thing about […]

U.S. Capitol Maternity Session

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 […]

Colorful Fall Family Session | 6 month old family session

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 […]

In-home Family Session | Washington, DC Newborn Photographer

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 […]
