DC's premier natural light, on location lifestyle photographer.
Amber is one of my longest friends. We met on her first day of school in the fourth grade. Over the past 20-something years we have had more sleepovers, laughs, tears and softball tournaments than I can count. Amber and I did soooo many things together that probably weren’t a great idea. Luckily, we can out the other side with minimal wear and tear. (An act of God, for sure!)… Keep Reading
DC people, If you haven’t been out to Frying Pan Park yet….GO! It is a great trip for families. We had a great time “picking rocks” to help the farmers get ready for wheat planting, petting the farm animals and riding the tractor. Best of all, it is all FREE! (We came on “Back to School” day so the tractor rides were free today but usually they are a couple… Keep Reading
I have had the pleasure working with a DC stylist named Manvi Drona (http://www.mochatini.org/) for a little over a year now. Last year I shot an HGTV New Year’s tablescape for her along with a Photo Booth how-to. She just recently created a Halloween tablescape and DIY children’s costumes for the DIY Network. I knew the perfect kids to model the costumes! Please check out the DIY Network article and follow… Keep Reading
I have had so many awesome sessions lately. I am getting comfortable with my new camera and editing style…although there is still so much more to learn. But trucking along non-the-less. And even though I haven’t posted a full blog post on these families, yet, I wanted to show a couple of my recent favorites.
Over the last several months Eric at Enigma Boxing and Training (http://www.enigmaboxingandfitness.com/index.html) has been kicking my sorry butt into shape. We have a pretty good thing worked out, he tortures me in the gym and I take photos for him to be used to promote his new business. A couple weeks ago he asked me to go take pictures at the local boxing gym. Fun…a little intimidating…but fun. My usual… Keep Reading
I think we were 5 minutes into this maternity session when I told Kerianne that she was ridiculously photogenic. I mean really, a photographers dream. She looked amazing in every shot! Kerianne and Joe already had a perfectly outfitted nursery for their little one (Way more than I can say for myself when I was pregnant with my first) painted a great gender neutral shade of teal for their mystery… Keep Reading
Loved this family! The Waddell’s smiled and laughed the entire session making my job easy peasy lemon squeezy. Awesome kids, awesome parents, awesome session. Meet the Waddell’s.
A few months ago I had the pleasure of shooting a maternity session with a very pregnant Sirena. Her and her husband, Tarek, were patiently awaiting the arrival of their little baby Enzo. A couple of weeks after our session Sirena gave birth to a healthy baby Enzo. He is a sweet, happy little baby and the joy of his parents life. Meet Enzo and proud parents Tarek and Sirena.
I know I have said this before but this really might be my favorite session to date. It was so hard choosing a few of my top favorites from this bunch, I really kind of wanted to show you all of them but I manged to narrow it down. When I met the Mensah family, mom Isabelle had just given birth (via c-section!) four days prior. I have had 2… Keep Reading
When Tony booked me for his family photo session I was a bit nervous. Tony himself is a photographer. A really good photographer. My nerves were calmed as soon as I met him and his family. His son Luke was an incredibly happy kid who thought I was awesome. 🙂 (I mean what’s not to love, right?) Like all 18 month olds, he smiled at the camera until he was… Keep Reading
This is my favorite age. 6-9 month olds are so happy. Constantly smiling, laughing and learning. Calder is such a sweet boy and I was so happy to have the chance to take his picture again.
The last time I saw the Menkiti family they were awaiting the arrival of the newest Menkiti boy. I love photographing newborns…love.it. Their little cries and sounds and the way they smell. (During a newborn session is the only time it is appropriate to smell a client.) Meet sweet baby Clayton.
