This handsome family just always knocks their sessions out of the park. (It’s a good thing that I am behind the camera because I sure don’t look this sharp at seven o’clock in the morning😉.) And what a gorgeous June morning it was last year when we met on Capitol Hill for their annual family […]

Yes, a Senior & Family Session combo is a thing. If you’d like to capture a few family shots in conjunction with your child’s Senior Session, I will gladly work with you to make it happen. Check out this Senior & Family combo from a very sunny day last spring with the beautiful Hannah and […]

LITERALLY HALF OF MY NATIVE GERMANY […]

One of the beauties of the Washington area is that autumn can be seemingly endless. 🍁🍂I always think of it as payback for the miserably sweaty summers – that fall here goes on and on, well beyond Thanksgiving.
