Gorgeous fall colors. Glowy sunshine. Love, warmth, and smiles all around. Sometimes everything clicks into place for a portrait session, and this beautiful family session was definitely one of those times...

We met up just a few days after the official first day of spring and got to see some early spring blooms, including camellias and a whole sea of trumpet daffodils. It was wonderful to see the colors […]

Even longer than the Ithaca winters I endured in college, which easily stretched from November to April! I think the combination of the cold weather, being cooped up at home for months, and not […]

I was cautiously optimistic when the weather station started hyping up this weekend’s snowstorm, as there have been many a false alarm in the past. However, I had nothing to worry about! We […]

It feels like every year there are more and more stylish options for the little ones, and on multiple occasions, I have found myself wishing a dress or jumpsuit came in adult sizes! ๐ Today I’m sharing a […]

As a family photographer, I love being able to photograph families as they grow and change through the years. Last fall, I had the distinct pleasure of doing a mother-son session for Aurora and Tristan in Old Town Alexandria (check out their session here). So when Aurora reached out asking if I could take their […]

I’m so excited to share this adorable session with the Lee Family, taken at the picturesque River Farm in Alexandria! When Rachel reached out looking for updated photos of her beautiful little family, I knew that River Farm would be perfect for their session. I love River Farm’s mix of brick buildings, manicured lawns, lush […]
