I’d visited Morven Park in Leesburg before but this was my first photo session in this expansive garden. It was a truly fun time with this beautiful and spirited class of 2025 Senior and her lovely cheerleading parents last summer as we explored the various areas of the park. If you like greens this is […]

It’s hard to imagine right now that it will ever be warm enough to dress in a sleeveless summer dress at six in the morning. When you don’t get around to blogging right after your sessions, this disconnect is what happens. 🥶🌞🥵 As it happened, a Netflix crew was setting up on the steps of […]

It doesn’t feel like it’s already been eight months since this beautiful Grad Session at the Jefferson Memorial. We had to overcome some significant logistical challenges due to a 10k run that closed off all the surrounding streets to the Jefferson, but my lovely client and and I did prevail and made some beautiful images […]

Jasper Last weekend’s doggie mini sessions “Puppies Against Hunger” were a big success. A total of 16 sweet dogs came to my outdoor studio (aka my dear neighbors’ yard), excited about all the new scents and more or less enthusiastic about modeling. 😉 With my husband’s invaluable help, a bit of coaxing, a few treats, […]

This late summer family/senior/cousin session was such a joyful one with lots of sunshine, laughter and adorable baby giggles. We worked in three different locations, a short walk from one another, to capture images in sun drenched beautiful colors as well as the classic Capitol Hill vibes. A simple process resulting in a dynamic, varied […]

As we are headed into October, I am thinking back to this absolutely wonderful autumn session in downtown DC last year. Don’t these photos make you feel the whiff of crisp fall air that we are all looking forward to? Working with these children was an unmitigated joy and makes me look forward to many […]

We are blessed with mild autumn days with incredible sunlight deep into the fall in the DC area. The day of this session was one of those. It was an absolute joy to meet and work with this lovely family, and especially with their very spirited children. We couldn’t have asked for a better afternoon […]

Check out the garden session with this stunning High School Senior from the spring. The day had started with very heavy wind gusts of 25 mph and we considered rescheduling. So glad we decided to move forward – the strong winds had morphed into a Hollywood fan by the late afternoon and we were able […]

Heavy rains were in the forecast for this Senior Session so we moved it up by a day and it couldn’t have been a more beautiful morning at the Reflecting Pool for this McLean High School Senior earlier this year. After a stunning sunrise, a few clouds mercifully rolled in and allowed us to spend […]

What a wonderfully joyful session I had with this charming and delightful University of Maryland (nearly) graduate last Saturday. We had perfect conditions on campus: mild, overcast, just a little wind, most students still asleep, parent cheerleaders, and the cutest canine UMD graduate ever. So much fun, and very likely the first time ever that […]
