This is the place I get to showcase all of my beautiful clients and the love they put into their sessions or weddings.

Find the category you're looking for, or browse for hours! There's plenty to keep you entertained.

You may remember Maddy from this post from a little over a year ago, when she helped me create my Photo Shoot Style Guide. Well this little project came full circle when she booked me for her Old Town Alexandria maternity photos because guess who got to actually use the style guide? Maddy! haha 

By the time you’re reading this, I’ll be out of office & south of the border… well, not in Mexico, but still south of the border! I’m in the Dominican Republic as one the of the official photographers for Dance Adventures, DR version! I’m in for lots of sun & sand, all with a camera […]

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 […]

How was everyone’s weekend? Here in the D.C. area we had great weather for winter so I think everyone was able to enjoy the weekend more than usual. The sun was shining, the air was on the warmer side, & you could get away with maybe two layers instead of four! It’s kind of the […]

Y’all, it’s tough to find a good hair stylist in the D.C. area! It baffles the mind. Think about it. People from all over the world come here to live, work, play, pro-create, govern, be diplomatic. You would think you could find plenty of good hair stylists! But in my eleven years living in Arlington & […]

Some weekends call for a little bit of pampering & discovering new places, and that’s what this past weekend had in store for me. I love when I get the chance to work in all of that plus a little R&R and actually have some time off to enjoy my weekend. I’m always taking pictures […]

Being part of a group of motivated business people who are happy to network & look out for your business with the same intensity as they garner business for themselves is such a wonderful opportunity.

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 & […]
