PORTRAIT: NEWBORN LUCY

Ashley and Dave were some of the first people I met moving to Washington, DC from Charlotte. In our first conversation, we learned that we spent time living and volunteering within miles of each other in Cochabamba, Bolivia. We share a deep love for the country and...
PORTRAIT: NEWBORN TEDDY

PORTRAIT: NEWBORN TEDDY

Erin and Don were great clients toward the beginning of my venture into wedding photography. They quickly became friends and it has been wonderful to stay in touch and see their family grow. Their baby is full of personality and was sooo good for our shoot.
WOODBRIDGE ENGAGEMENT: NANA & KUJO

WOODBRIDGE ENGAGEMENT: NANA & KUJO

I met Nana and Kujo in Woodbridge last week for this springtime engagement session. We started at a shopping center—I was skeptical about finding nice looking backgrounds—but it turned out to be a great place. We were there before any shoppers and found several...

I had never photographed a surprise wedding—that is, until this night. Tim and Laura asked me to go in with them on a sneaky plan to surprise all of their friends. What was advertised as an engagement party (surprising Laura) turned into a full blown wedding...

WASHINGTON DC WEDDING: MARTA & SUSMIT

Susmit and Marta were married in the Smithsonian Gardens. This small, intimate ceremony was performed by Travis of Tie the Knot DC and within minutes the newlyweds and I were off to take some portraits around the National Mall and up toward the US Capitol. The cherry...

FREDERICKSBURG ENGAGEMENT: LISA & KYLE

Lisa and Kyle are the sweetest couple, and Erin and I had a wonderful time with them in and around downtown Fredericksburg. Just like us, the people in their lives come first and the photos come second. We were able to get some fun shots and some romantic shots in...

The long winter has made it difficult to schedule engagement sessions. Several of our planned shoots were foiled by rain and snow! Now that spring is here, we are back on track and excited to be shooting outside again without having to bundle up like Eskimos. We met...
