Last week I shared Caroline & Judd’s gorgeous maternity portraits, and today I’m sharing their Georgetown newborn photos! Caroline & Judd welcomed their new addition, baby Owen, the week of 4th of July. So he’s a patriotic baby, that’s clear! haha I had already met Caroline & Judd’s first baby – their pup, Indy – […]

Oh! I am so happy to be playing catch-up & blogging right now instead of planning logistics, packing, signing checks, & moving large boxes! I am almost done with my move and can see the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel! Woot woot! While there is still much unpacking & settling in to […]

I’m excited to share the photos from Daniela & Steve’s Leesburg wedding with you today! It was a beautiful winter day last Saturday when they tied the knot at the quaint Weddings On Wirt.

So much of your wedding memories are tied to the things you’ll still have with you years later, like your wedding rings, your something blue, the dried bouquet, and your other […]
