Happy Monday, friends! This is a happy Monday for me because I’m feeling a smidge better after being sick all last week. I chose to take a rest day on Friday & Sunday in order to finally kick this sickness once & for all, and I think it worked! Or at least, is in the works… […]

If you’ve been following me on Instagram & Facebook (and if you haven’t, follow me here & here!), you will know that I’ve been super pumped for peak bloom of the cherry blossoms! It’s like a holiday in the D.C. area! There was so much more anticipation this year because the weather played a little trick […]

The cool thing about being a photographer who takes photos of families is getting to see how the families grow and change over the years. This perspective is amplified when you have known the family longer than when you started taking their photos. Such is the case with the folks in today’s Potomac Overlook Regional Park […]

What a better way to get familiar with your new home town than to schedule a photo session where you can enjoy a beautiful local park?! Gina wanted to capture some north Arlington holiday photos with her family to commemorate their recent arrival to the area. I met up with her & her crew on […]

One of the (many) fun aspects of owning a business is my newfound involvement in the community where I live – Arlington, VA. From participating in a local networking group to exploring the area on my outdoor shoots to meeting local families, it’s all been so eye opening! The opportunities I’ve had to do all […]

I love taking care of & serving my clients, and I SO appreciate when they take care of me! I met Andreya & her family thanks to a referral from another family who I took holiday photos for earlier this fall. Andreya’s friend, Amy, was happy with the images I captured for her family & […]

I think it says a lot about a family when they are willing to invite you into their home, their neighborhood, to capture holiday family photos. It makes so much sense, right? What better place to capture memories with your family than in your own backyard? In your own stomping grounds, as they say. Natalie’s […]

One thing I love about photography is how it brings people together – or back together, in some cases. I met Idelisse back in 2010 at trapeze class! Yes folks, I used to take trapeze lessons. But I digress. A mutual friend, Ricardo, introduced us when he invited Idelisse to one of our classes. So […]

So, apparently Greenwell State Park family photos are the thing to do in southern Maryland! Honestly, it’s worth coming from far and wide to take photos at this park because the views are stunning! I’m so happy Erin & her hubby, Mike, chose this spot for their family photos. It was the perfect backdrop to […]

While I try to count my blessings & recite my gratitude each and every day, this time of year is perfect for taking stock of all we have to be thankful for. This year I had the incredible honor and good fortune to take holiday photos for 25 local families. Typing that brings tears to […]
