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. 

I’ve known this sweet family for years when they would come in regularly at my husband’s ice cream shop. The children are so grown up now-time absolutely flies. We met early in the morning at the Capitol. This location is magical in the morning. It has a wonderful view of the Capitol but is also […]

Family is everything to them. They are down-to-earth, you can call them anytime during an emergency and also haul from […]

The Reina Family -a winter family session at the Arboretum

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 […]

A Christmas Family Session in City Center, DC

I always get so excited when sessions include Grandparents. I photographed Whitney and her family several months ago and now to add Grandparents to the mix…so fun! She emailed me the day before to say we had their session scheduled right over the Nat’s parade, so we opted to meet early. Crowds downtown can be […]

The Sheppard Family |Botanical Gardens

This was yet another cold and windy session, but you would never have known it by the Wise family. Little Clair was amazing. She got “special” portraits with Mamma and Daddy flew her which brought on a lot of giggles. We had to stop for a few tea breaks to warm up but they did […]

The Wise Family |Washington, DC Family Photographer

I met the Buch family on the most perfect fall afternoon at the Franciscan Monastery in DC. Kristin dressed the girls in darling floral dresses. They had fun running through the arches and twirling, like all little girls do. We ended the session out in the lawn snuggled up on a cozy blanket they brought […]

The Buch Family |Franciscan Monastery, DC

I always get so excited when clients choose the Library of Congress for their family session location. It’s architecture is stunning and all the white bounces the light for gorgeous images. When you add an adorable family to the mix….magic! The Meyer family were so easy going with incredible taste. I love classic navy in […]

The Duncan family welcomed their second boy into their hearts and home and we are thrilled for them. William Rogers is simply perfect. I love session where Grandparents can be part of the moments. Anna’s mother was there and we got to capture a few 3 generation photos. She pointed out the nursery door hanging…a […]

Welcoming William |DC Newborn Photographer

I wanted to share with you all this little gem of a shop. Elizabeth curated her store with incredible detail and she is the kindest person you’ll ever meet. She was a nanny for years and she knows a thing or two about what mother’s need and enjoy. It’s filled with sustainable goods for design […]

Three Littles -Baby Boutique

I was thrilled when Isadora reached out for a photo session and said her Mother would also be along. I love generation portraits! It’s something you rarely have a chance to do, it’s so hard getting family all in one place at the same time. We walked around the gardens at Hillside Estate. We walked […]
