welcome to the blog!

This is the place I get to showcase all of my beautiful clients and the love they put into their sessions or weddings. I also love sharing tips and tricks on wedding photography planning, ideas to make your session fun, easy, and organized, as well as personal stories. Find the category you're looking for, or browse for hours! There's plenty to keep you entertained.

  I learn this lesson more and more as time passes: if someone tells me they aren’t great at having their photo taken, the opposite tends to be true! Such was the case with Cecilia and Steven’s C&O Canal engagement photos this past weekend in Potomac, Maryland. Cecilia and Steven were such naturals in front […]

  When you propose to your girlfriend in an an amazing, majestic location such as Yosemite (!!!), you could probably rest on those brownie points for months – at least until your wedding! But not George! George wasn’t settling for Yosemite proposal brownie points – he went the extra mile and did Belle Haven Park […]

  I totally love D.C. and the D.C. area, and there’s something to be said for exploring beyond our little metropolis. Within an hour of D.C. we have everything from rolling hills (baby mountains) to battlefields, wineries, flower fields, expansive gardens, sprawling manor houses and mansions, quaint riverside towns, farmland, beaches… you name it, we’ve pretty much […]

I mentioned on Instagram the other day that although I don’t consider myself a super girlie girl (or shallow!), I absolutely love taking photos of flowers and diamonds! Maybe that is the little bit of girlie that exists inside me! So pair that with my love for photographing couples and this D.C. cherry blossoms engagement […]

Cori and Rich’s love story began in a somewhat unexpected place. You go to work everyday expecting to do a good job, please your boss, BE the boss, maybe make some friends. I don’t think most people go to work thinking they’re going to meet their future spouse! But Cori and Rich defied the unexpected […]

I am literally typing this post when Fun Monday is almost over! It’s 8:45PM and I’m finally sitting down to type it up! Today, much like the rest of my weekend, has been busy in the best way! It takes days and a big weekend like this to remind me how lucky I am to […]

Sometimes this job seems like I’m getting away with something. Are you really allowed to have this much fun while doing your job?! I pinch myself and realize, yep – not only is it allowed, this is real life! I had the *best* time with Azeezat & Jeremy during their Centennial Park engagement photos shoot […]

I’m excited to add another post in my series on wedding photography planning. Two weeks ago I shared why you should consult your wedding photographer when creating your timeline and last week I helped you pick the perfect wedding photography package to bring you joy. This week I’m telling you why booking engagement session photography […]

I remember hearing about Nicole, Ryan’s new girlfriend, from our friend Lauren a few years ago. Ryan sent Lauren a text the evening we were all having happy hour together at our favorite neighborhood spot. The text went something like, “Nicole is getting there before me. Be nice to her.” Haha! Lauren is the friendliest […]

I’m excited to share with you these National Mall engagement photos! When I met Kandis & her now fiance, Daniel, they weren’t yet engaged. But I actually thought they were already married! That is how in sync and tight their connection is. They give off a vibe of unity, of closeness and security. So I was […]
