This family session was hands-down one of my favorites from this past fall season! I can’t remember the last time I laughed so much during a session. From beginning to end, it was a frenzy of high energy, big family hugs, park races, tickle fights, and plenty of giggles and mischief. Rachel told me ahead […]

I had the best time photographing the beautiful King family in Old Town Alexandria! This was such a fun family, with mom and dad, four siblings, and two daughters-in-law. Fun fact: older brothers Michael and William are fraternal twins, and both of them got married during the pandemic! Younger daughter Lilly, who has a background […]

“I just want it to look like fall behind us,” Meredith told me as we were planning her family session. I think it’s safe to say that she got exactly what she wished for! After the warmest October in recent memory, we finally got a gorgeous display of oranges, golds, and warm greens at Burke […]

There’s nothing quite like Green Spring Gardens in the fall! On this particular Saturday afternoon, the gardens were THE place to be, with countless families, engaged couples, and expectant parents alike vying for the perfect photo spot. I may or may not edited a few photographers out of the background in some of these photos! […]

This session with the Greenley family was so incredibly special! Baby Lois was born extremely premature at 24 weeks, and her parents, Emma and Michael, wanted to have a family session to celebrate her life and the fact that she is now healthy and thriving at one year old! Older brothers Gus and Patrick were […]

It’s always a treat to get to photograph the Gardner family! This is my third straight year working with Aurora, and we like to joke that every time we take her family photos, there’s a new member of the family for me to meet! We started out with just her and Tristan (see their adorable […]

A few weeks ago, I got the sweetest inquiry from Lauren. “We are looking for family portraits with our two little girls and are swooning over your portfolio!” she wrote. “We would love to get on your schedule!” Thankfully, I just so happened to have one slot left in September, and we made it happen! […]

The night before our session, I was frantically texting Nora to let her know that our original location, Burke Lake Park, would not be available. It just so happened that Burke Lake was hosting a huge cross country race the morning of our session, and their website warned that the park would be extremely busy […]

I got the chance to photograph the gorgeous Thompson family last week in Old Town Alexandria, and I’m so excited to share these images with you guys! Jackie and I first met at Cornell – we were actually housemates my senior year, and I called her my “dimple buddy” hehe! Let me tell you, this […]

Some family sessions just make me squeal with joy, and this was one of them! It goes without saying that I looove photographing families, but throw in the opportunity to take some gorgeous maternity photos too, and I am ALL HERE for it! When Yoshiko showed me the maternity gowns she had selected for our […]
