I had so much fun shooting at Brookside Gardens again, this time with the beautiful Fender family! 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 […]

Scheduling a winter family session in the DMV can be quite the roller coaster! We had to reschedule this family session TWICE due to snow, sleet, icy rain, or some combination of the above! If you look closely, you can even see patches of thawing ice in the background. 😉 Thankfully the sun warmed up […]

I loved absolutely everything about this session with the Yamada family! After a pretty crazy February filled with sleet, snow, and icy rain, we were blessed with some warmer days last week, perfect for frolicking through the fields of Manassas Battlefield Park. I will definitely be oversharing images in this blog post, but I won’t […]

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 […]

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! I’ve known Angelina since our Cornell days, and she has always been true to her name: generous, kind, gentle, funny, and a true angel. […]

This family session holds a special place in my heart, and that’s because I love the Smith family dearly! I have known Hannah and Barrett for almost a decade now (wow does that make me feel old!), having met while studying together at Cornell. They are two of the smartest, most compassionate, and most loyal […]

As soon as I met Aurora and Tristan by the Market Square fountain for their Old Town family session, I knew I was in for a fun one! Tristan had the most infectious and boundless energy, which made for some awesome candid shots between the more traditional photos we took. He definitely wins points for […]

This beautiful family session was gifted to baby Nora for her first birthday by her doting grandmother, and it’s safe to say that she rocked her portraits like a pro! 🙂 Caroline and Chris chose a lovely palette of soft blues, pinks, and grays that played beautifully with the lush greenery of Founders Park in […]
