As a family photographer in DC, I often hear the same questions from clients as we prepare for their session. I wanted to gather the responses here in one place to best meet your needs. You should confidently walk into your DC family photo session feeling great! It is a true honor for me to […]

This Brookside Gardens photo session was an ethereal dream as a Northern VA Family Photographer. I love golden light, but there is something to be said for an overcast, foggy morning. The fog helped create a magical feel throughout Brookside Gardens during this family photo session. We even found some lingering cherry blossoms to add […]

I had such a fun time photographing this dreamy Brookside Gardens family session in Maryland. This sweet family got up early on a Saturday morning and met me at Brookside Gardens in Silver Spring. It had rained the day before, and although the forecast for Saturday was clear, there were overcast skies with fog. I […]

This Washington DC Family Cherry Blossom Photo Session was delightful. These tiny pink blooms last for only a short duration, but they make such a big impact! If you would like to have a cherry blossom session, I recommend being incredibly flexible. The National Park Service gives a peak bloom prediction every year, but this […]

This Brookside Gardens family photo session was simply lovely. I enjoy photographing all around the DC area. I have had the opportunity to explore so many lovely locations over the years. This winter family session was photographed in Brookside Gardens in Montgomery County, one of my favorite locations to photograph during the spring. The gardens […]

As a DC fine art photographer, I have desired to enrich the service I provide the families I photograph. I couldn’t quite place my finger on it, but it seemed there should be something more than simply sending an online gallery and calling it a day. The galleries are beautiful and purposeful, yet so often […]

Jill and her darling family recently moved from San Francisco to the district. We only thought it fitting that we capture her classic family photography session in front of a DC staple, the U.S. Capitol Building. The Capitol Building is the epitome of elegance in the city. Therefore, it serves as the perfect backdrop for […]

Fall photo season is finally upon us as many families gather to get that perfect shot for Christmas cards or new portrait hanging on the wall. I love photographing families in the fall for many reasons, from the gorgeous colors and scenery to the animated little ones.
