Washington DC Family Photographer
Rebecca opened her family album, smiling as she said, "I can't wait to share this with my daughter when she's older."
As I stood there, watching her view her beautiful images, I felt such a feeling of joy. This mother, who wasn't sure if she would ever hold a child in her arms, now has this beautiful linen heirloom album that she will share with her grandchildren one day.
For me, it began when I had my son. The ever passing of time tugged at my heart, and I wanted to preserve. From his rolls to his inquisitive gaze, nothing lasted and it ached me.
Fast forward to now - as a Northern VA family photographer, I am drawn to all things romantic, elegant, and whimsical. I want you to feel that nostalgic joy when you view your images 10 years from now.
These photographs are eternal - they're our means to remember these small, sacred moments, and I want to remember. To learn more about how we can create your legacy, click the button below.
