The idea of a late summer breeze, spaghetti straps, and pretty flowers seems unreal right now when you might feel stuck in the depth of winter and bundled up to the nose. I’m finally sharing some favorites of this late August session with my radiant and beautiful senior client at Green Spring Gardens in Alexandria. […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

It was still quite chilly during this Spring Session on Capitol Hill this past weekend, and some of the wind gusts had us laugh out loud as they did a number on Elizabeth’s hair. But what a wonderfully spirited session we had on this sunny Sunday evening without the weekday melange of lawmakers, lobbyists, tourists […]

Green Spring Gardens was at the very early stages of spring last week, with many flower beds still more mulch than blooms, and the beautiful Sunday afternoon drew crowds of families and picnickers. I had to be very intentional with locations and posing to capture the early spring colors (pre-tulips) while avoiding the many visitors. […]

What a session this was with the stunning and lovely E. Getting up and out before dawn is never easy and always worth it. And while the Lincoln Memorial is still a construction site, the reflecting pool and Washington Monument are beckoning us to provide an iconic DC backdrop, followed by other photogenic spots along […]

Throwback to this colorful spring Senior Session with the beautiful R. on a day when there is a snowstorm forecast in Northern Virginia. I met her back in 2016 when her parents hired me for the first of many family sessions, and I’m pretty sure that I was taller than her back then. 😎 It […]
