I met the gorgeous Maritza for the first time a couple of years ago when I took headshots for her office team at Morgan Stanley. I was so thrilled when she inquired about a photo session celebrating her impending MBA from Penn State. We decided on one of the most iconic DC spots, the Lincoln […]

What a beautiful Senior Session with the stunning Ellie at the Lincoln Memorial and the National Mall last fall. I just couldn’t get enough of her gorgeous personality – she’s beautiful inside and out. All best wishes to her for the remainder of Senior Year and beyond. ๐ŸŽ“

An epic Senior Session with Twin High Schoolers – enhanced by an appearance of their little brother – on Capitol Hill last spring. This was one of the largest galleries I have ever delivered. Their mom got a little teary-eyed during the session and who could blame her? I trust that they are both rocking […]

When Oma and Opa come to visit from Germany ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช, you get all dressed up, schlepp to DC through rush hour traffic and road closures on a hot weekday evening, fight for a parking spot on Capitol Hill and arrive all relaxed and giddy for a fun family session. Right? – Yes, right! Check out […]

This wonderful family has been a loyal client since I photographed the little girls’ baptism as babies. I am so grateful for my clients who value quality family photographs reflecting and documenting the many stages of their growing family. You can’t hold on to the moment but you can freeze it in a beautiful portrait […]

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 morning๐Ÿ˜‰.) And what a gorgeous June morning it was last year when we met on Capitol Hill for their annual family […]

Finally sharing this spunky girl’s rehearsal photos at Temple Rodef Shalom in late March. Mazel Tov to Kate and the whole family! There was so much love from Kate’s doting grandparents and parents. And check out her sweet big brother Jack whose Bar Mitzvah I photographed pre-pandemic, about 30 years ago – just kidding – […]

The Cherry Blossoms at the Tidal Basin set the scene for one of the most iconic looks in DC. They are also one of the most popular tourist attractions in the Nation’s Capital. You’ve got to get up early to beat the influx of visitors and joggers and to catch the most magical light. These […]

It’s always funny to me that I have to drive half an hour to Old Town Alexandria for a “European vibe” in my images. Old Town in particular, with its cute red brick alleys and (a few) cobblestone streets, gets overrun with photographers, especially during the busy, pre-holiday season. LITERALLY HALF OF MY NATIVE GERMANY […]
