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 love when families grow with me. I took the first portraits of the Fleming family years ago. I have grown as much in photography as their little girls have in height this past year. It makes all the difference when you client believe in you. I love the colors they chose: cream and camel […]

Family Photos in the Supreme Court Garden

I have photographed this dear family for years now and each session I say is my new favorite. This one is for sure at the top. The children were so fun and excited about photos. It was a sunny morning at the Capitol and then we walked across the street to the Botanical Gardens for […]

A Sunrise Session at the Capitol |Washington, DC Family Photographer

The fall light has returned and you can see the warmness it brings in these photos. I met the M family at their home on Capitol Hill. There is something so special about photos together at home. The children are relaxed and the parents don’t have the hassle of needing to be at a certain […]

A Fall Family Session on Capitol Hill | Washington, DC Family Photographer

What a fun way to start off 2021 with this family! Nicole booked her session last minute because we saw the next day was going to be very mild. She went with a classic wardrobe because we chose the Capitol at their location. She wore navy and put her girls in leopard print dresses, so […]

A Classic Family Session at the U.S. Capitol |Washington, DC

I drove to the Hazelgrove family’s home on one of the hottest days in June. We opted for that instead of rain on Sunday. It was warm but the children did so well! Big brother did so well at making the whole crew laugh. The best thing about front porch sessions is it doesn’t take […]

The Hazelgrove Family |DC Porch Session

I was so excited when Natalie reached out about taking Mother’s Day photos. Their home is a lovely farmhouse with a full porch so we had the entire session outside. We started on the porch and then kicked off our shoes for a few photos running in the grass barefoot. The children are at such […]

The Strahorn Family |Washington, DC Family Photographer

It’s always a treat when family visits. Daniel’s brother, Adam, and his family came down a Sunday afternoon and we were able to take a few family photos on our afternoon walk. The cherry trees were just starting to bud at the Basilica which made the perfect backdrop. They are expecting a third baby in […]

A Family Cherry Blossom Session |DC Family Photographer

This family! We had such a great time together at the Library of Congress. I think you can guess by now, this happens to be one of my favorite locations to photograph in all of DC. All the clean lines, white backgrounds and French architecture….I love it all! The children definitely have a close bond […]

Library of Congress, DC Family Photographer

These little girls were just the sweetest! They were so well behaved even with the colder weather. As you can see, all smiles! Their parents were so calm and relaxed, which also help the children to enjoy the session too. Children follow the lead of their parents every time. We walked around the Senate building […]

The Medema Family |Senate Building, DC

It was pouring down rain the morning I met the Subramanian family for their session. So thankful we picked the Library of Congress to photograph at because you can photograph inside and it’s absolutely gorgeous. The tall pillars and white marble are beautiful and it has great natural light. The children had fun playing and […]
