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.

With today’s blog post I can note two items on the list of reasons why I love photography: 1. I get to photograph people from all kinds of businesses. Sometimes we’re super profesh in suits & blazers and sometimes we’re spunky in yoga gear with a fitness instructor! 2. I get to learn what my clients are passionate […]

I’m so excited to finally debut a new blog style I’ve been working on & to feature fellow entrepreneur Bryana King of Studeo 23! I have so much to say whenever anyone asks me about my business, so I figured the people I take headshots for would also have a lot to say about their businesses. […]

It’s time for another Dance Adventures Dominican Republic post! I don’t know about where you are, but in the D.C. area it’s freezing & we are having a snow storm! So I thought it would be a great time to whisk you away to Playa el Valle – the private beach located down the road […]

Creative license is something I always heard about in my literature & art classes in school. I loved the idea of the freedom that comes along with being an artist. You can mold a story or piece of art into whatever you need it to be, whether you’re defying reality or playing safely within 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 & […]

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. One such business venture my local chapter of BNI recently put together was an event for northern VA Realtor headshots […]

So, Old Town Alexandria headshots might be my new favorite thing. There’s something about walking along the cobblestone sidewalks in such a historic town that’s managed to stay current at the same time. History is mixed with modern day cool in the form of hip restaurants, unique boutiques, & fashionable passersby. During this most recent […]

I usually start out my blog posts describing how & when I met my client and how I got to know them through the course of working with them to plan their photo shoot. So, I’m going to start this post about a recent Annapolis headshots session in a similar way: I met Steve a little over 29 […]

I love working with clients who know what they want but are still open to letting me do my thing, make suggestions, and trust my experience & expertise. Josh was one of these clients! His Old Town Alexandria headshots session went nice & smooth because he was great at communicating what he was looking for […]

A month or so ago I posted a blog with my high school friend Emily’s newborn daughter’s photos & mentioned how some things are meant to come full circle. Well this post is definitely another full circle kind of moment! More on that to come. But right now I am excited to share the photos from […]
