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 […]

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 […]

To think that we nearly rescheduled. We were on the fence about going forward because of uncertain weather, and, boy, am I glad we moved ahead: a virtually empty garden after the rain and even, cloud covered light all around allowed us to freely move about for some beautiful Senior portraits of this stunning McLean […]

After taking his sister’s senior photos a couple of years ago at this very location, I spent a wonderful spring morning with this fun college-bound senior – and look at the huge gallery we produced for him. We even found blooms that matched his Gonzaga HS tie right by the Supreme Court. Clients are sometimes […]

Old Town Alexandria has it all: Marina vibes, Old World charm, and Americana. After his older brother’s Senior session here a couple of years ago, Walker decided on this popular spot as well and cheerfully met with me at the crack of dawn on a very sunny spring morning. Here are some favorites of his […]

Oh what a chilly morning this was at the Jefferson on this early April session! Kudos to this intrepid Georgetown Graduate Grad for sticking it out so we could get iconic DC images as well as the last of the elusive pink blooms on the GU campus. Congrats all around! 🎓🌸
