These DAR Constitution Hall photos were perfect for this sun-soaked family session. I love the DAR Constitution Hall as a DC photoshoot location. The DAR Constitution Hall is the perfect location if you’re looking for both quintessential DC AND convenience, all in the same spot. A lot of downtown DC locations involve lots of walking […]

Wow, it’s hard to believe I am entering the 7th(!!!!!) year of my business. I feel so grateful for the growth and prosperity this business has experienced, especially knowing that most businesses don’t make it past the first 7 years. 2022 was the best year yet of my business, yet I have even bigger plans […]

Butler’s Orchard is an amazing family-owned farm that offers fun-filled […]

We photographed this Richmond family session during The Kindred Path workshop in August.

This DC Monuments family photo session on a lovely summer morning is STUNNING! Erin, her husband, and sweet baby boy met me at sunrise at the Lincoln Memorial.

Naturally, their newborn session did not disappoint. Rosie was the sweetest, most darling baby. She gracefully slept for half the session and then we […]

When you book your session with Marie Elizabeth Photography, […]
