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 are a few images from a family session in Virginia. When you have multiple little ones there can be lots of energy during a session. I’m sure from the parents view it can feel chaotic but these are the moments that give you real emotion and interactions. This also shows the season your family […]

Small Moments | Washington, DC Family Photographer

This session was filled with all my favorite things. A darling baby, active toddlers and a beautiful garden. But my favorite thing about this session was the bond the parents had together with their little family. They are in a very busy season of life but they both led with such gentleness that the children […]

An Outdoor Family Session | Tuckahoe Plantation, VA

Summers in DC can be sweltering and this session was no exception. How Ted and Lauren remained flawless through mosquitoes and 90% humidity I will never know. They are amazing! And little Gwendolyn was a sweet as can be. We met early in hopes to beat some of the heat which helped immensely. The Basilica […]

A Summer Family Session in DC | Washington, DC Family Photographer

I’ve had several clients reach out to ask if it is too late to schedule a newborn session if their child is already a month or two old. You absolutely still can schedule a session! Also this is such a sweet age to capture. The baby is responding with smiles and interacting. Let’s not forget […]

Mother’s Day Mini Sessions at Three Littles

Early morning in my favorite time to photograph at the Supreme Court. It’s so quiet except for morning runners and the occasional person walking their dog. It also has a lovely cherry tree that blooms and this year it really showed off. I have four older sisters and it always feels special photographing sister bonds. […]

A Spring Sister Photo Session at the Supreme Court | Washington, DC Family Photographer

I was so excited for this session. One, because I have known Kalee for years and two, it’s so fun getting a new location to photograph. We met at Caledonia State Park and walked through the woods to a peaceful spot. The little girls were darling. I love when parents are up for anything and […]

A Woodland Family Session | Chambersburg, PA Photographer

If you are any form of artist, you know sometimes you get in a slump. A creative rut. One of the best ways is to create something by inspiration. Motherhood inspires me with it’s depth and complexities. I asked my friend Marie if I could photograph her with her children. There was a lovely blooming […]
