Spring has sprung in Washington, DC! The cherry blossoms are stars of the show around here, but if you ask me, the magnolia blossoms are even better. Saucer magnolias typically bloom about two weeks prior to the cherry blossoms, are a little pinker in color, and best of all: attract much smaller crowds. As a […]

My Week in the English Countryside Part two of my June 2022 trip to Europe begins here! When we last left off, I’d just parted ways with my dad after an incredible long weekend in Paris and Bruges. You can read that recap HERE. Dad left to catch his flight, and I was on my […]

Washington DC Family Portrait Session One of my favorite things about being a Washington, DC photographer is sharing my favorite hidden gem locations around the city like this one. Constitution Gardens is a sprawling park located in the heart of DC, featuring beautiful willow trees and stunning views of the Washington Monument. And yet, it […]

This is the second of two Jane Austen inspired editorial shoots that I had the pleasure of photographing in the Cotswolds last summer! Julie Paisley hosted the most incredible retreat in the heart of the English countryside, and my jaw is still on the floor over these images. For this shoot, I wanted to embrace […]

With cherry blossom peak bloom dates being announced this week, it felt like the perfect time to share this very special series and the story behind it. These images are incredibly special to me, and it’s my hope that they bring you some joy, too! The Cherry Blossom series was created on March 16th, 2020. […]

So when Julie Paisley released the mood boards for her retreats in the English countryside inspired by the Regency author’s novels, I had to be there! I’ll recap the full retreat in a separate post, but today, I’m focusing on an Emma inspired editorial that […]

Without a doubt, the best part of my job is having the privilege of documenting so many of my clients’ happiest milestones. I photographed Aili and Tom’s wedding in 2019, and now I get to have a front row seat as they embark on the journey of parenthood. These two are expecting their first baby […]

Even though Henry is our third baby, it still takes my breath away how fast the time flies! Babies don’t keep, and that’s why so many parents like to document their growth as often as possible. A professional portrait session wouldn’t be feasible every single month, but with a few simple steps, you can take […]

There are so many things to love about being a Washington DC wedding photographer, but days like Julie and Kevin’s truly take the cake. I loved every last detail of their Potomac View Terrace wedding but most importantly, their loved ones made my job an absolute joy. I always knew that Julie and Kevin were […]

Romantic In-Home Proposal There’s nothing more intimate and personal than a romantic in-home proposal. Brandon pulled out all the stops when he popped the question to Helen, hiring a personal chef and lining the path through their home with candles and flower petals. Flowers were on every surface, and he’d even had menu cards printed […]
