D + J had the most gorgeous Historic Savage Mill Manor wedding this past May. You know me; I’m slow but determined to get these blogs up this year. I loved so many things about this wedding, so let me share with you some of them. D had a gorgeous USED wedding dress she bought […]
Washington DC Lifestyle Newborn Photographer | Luke
I promised myself I’d try to blog more this year. Yet, here it is, and I just typed the words Washington DC Lifestyle Newborn Photographer and it’s mid-June and this session took place in February. Granted, this was not the easiest of years professionally in my teaching job or in my life, in general. The […]
Old Town Alexandria Engagement Session | Lisa + Spencer
When Lisa contacted me for their elopement, I asked if she wanted to do an engagement session so I could meet them. There wasn’t a ton of time between when she contacted me and TODAY, their wedding day, but I knew an Old Town Alexandria engagement session would make their short wedding day go so […]
DC Area At Home Newborn Session | Baby KJ
I love storytelling, and having a DC Area at home newborn session allow me to just that! Ideally, we want your session to be in just one day, but if schedules don’t accommodate that, I’ll sometimes break a newborn session into two! I did that for sweet little KJ, whose dad is in the military […]
Maternity Session at Herrington Harbour | The P Family
When you have a kid, a maternity session ends up being more of a family session, but that’s ok! Melissa’s first maternity session for Paisley was where she and her husband were engaged, and they went for where they were married for kiddo number two, holding their maternity session at Herrington Harbour in North Beach, […]
Downtown Annapolis Family Session | The V Family
Spring has sprung, and I honestly loved waking up early on a Saturday morning for a downtown Annapolis family session. This family ROCKED coordinating and not matching and was styled so perfectly for your location. This is a great gallery to show how what you wear can really elevate the look of your gallery, and […]
Military Promotion Photographer | Promotion to Captain at the Navy Yard
As a military spouse, I love getting to do military promotions. They are such a special time commemorating the hard work of not just the military member, but his or her family, as well. I remember looking for a military promotion photographer who could easily get onto to base for my husband’s promotion on Andrews […]
Lifestyle Newborn Sessions | Baby Ronak {Seven Days Old}
If you don’t know how I run lifestyle newborn sessions, this post is for you. Lifestyle newborn sessions are a mix of documentary, lifestyle, and portraits. They last two hours long, and they can be lots of fun even though the parents are stressed and sleep deprived! During these sessions, I like the babies to […]
Engagement Session at Cylburn Arboretum | L + B
Back in fall of 2019, Liz wrote me wanting an engagement session at Cylburn Arboretum. She was excited to be planning her spring 2021 wedding, and she had always loved this spot. They couldn’t hold their wedding here, but she wanted it to be part of their engagement session. Who knew at that time what […]
Engagement Session at Bear’s Den Overlook | J + D
When D wrote me wanting an engagement session at Bear’s Den Overlook in Bluemont, Virginia, I was game, but I was also nervous because I knew that I would never be able to get out there to scope out the location. Luckily, the DC photography world is amazingly nice, and a colleague had just done […]
