Adele and I met up at George Washington’s River Farm for her summer senior session. River Farm is also the headquarters of the American Horticultural Society, and with 25 acres overlooking the Potomac River, including a 4-acre meadow, an orchard, and wildlife garden it is the perfect spot for photos. There is also a children’s …
A sunset session in the Blue Ridge Mountains! I’ll take any opportunity to shoot in southwest Virginia, and I spent a gorgeous afternoon with this couple watching the sun sink behind the mountains.

Just a couple of months ago I did maternity photos for Kelly and her toddler V, and when her baby girl was born I couldn’t wait to meet up with the whole family for a session in their home. V kept me company and showed me some of her books and stuffed animals while I …
Alexis’ friend gifted this family session to her when her 4th girl was born. The baby is now 11 months and just starting to stand on her own, so it was the perfect time to schedule the session! They were so much fun, up for all of my crazy prompts, and I loved seeing how …
In a little over a month this gorgeous mom will be welcoming another baby girl into the world! I was so excited when I talked to Kelly and she told me she wanted maternity photos with her 2-year-old. I arrived early at the location and walked around to check the areas for the best lighting, …
Moms! How many photos do you have of your kids? How many of those photos are you in? May is the perfect month to offer special motherhood sessions and nothing makes me happier than being able to capture the bond between a mom and her children. My hope for every session like this is to …
I’ve been a freelance graphic design consultant for 19 years, with the exception of 2 years when I worked in the art department at Washington Navy Yard in DC. When I was hired, Jessa was also a graphic designer in that department and was very close to going on maternity leave with her 2ndchild. Our …
I am so relieved to have longer and warmer days and can’t wait when the next few weeks bring Virginia’s daffodils, dogwoods, and cherry blossoms! Monday evening’s 60-degree afternoon was perfect for these mom-daughter photos with Holly & Arden. When I first meet little ones I try to get a sense of their personality so …
After 3 days of straight rain in late February, we finally saw the sun and 50 degrees. I met the sweetest mama and her 2 girls right before sunset for their photos and after a short (and muddy) walk we found just the right spot! Emme grew up taking ice skating classes at the Mt. …
