Well friends, I have some big news that I can finally share with the world! I am officially down to part time at work, giving me more time to spend with my family and build the studio. It’s surreal that we’re already to this point, honestly. But it just felt like the right time, and […]

It’s been three days since Rebecca and Anthony’s wedding, and I’m still getting teary eyed thinking about it! Every little thing about their day was just so raw, real, and refreshingly authentic. These two met in the unlikeliest of places: while working as marine observers on fishing boats in the Bering Sea! Their wedding was […]

One of my favorite parts of the wedding day is photographing all the little details! These are the special little touches that you’ve planned for months makes your event personal to you. I photograph most of the details in the first hour of coverage, often while the bridal party finishes hair and makeup. That part […]

Summer is coming to a close and we’ve got a week of rainy days ahead, so here’s some gorgeous golden sunshine! My assistant, Leigh, and I met Amanda and Patrick for their engagement session and it was so good for my soul. We met at Jefferson Patterson Park in southern Maryland, where they’ll be married […]

It’s no secret that I hear the words “baby whisperer” A LOT. True, it’s literally my job to know how to soothe newborns and help them sleep.

Living near a major Naval base in southern Maryland means much of my clientele is active duty military. It’s such an honor to serve them, especially knowing how important these photographs while they’re separated from one another. It totally warms my heart when a dad is home on leave for just a few days, yet […]

August was a major baby boom month here at the studio, and I’m so excited to start sharing some beautiful recaps with you! A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing baby Grace on Fort Belvior in northern Virginia. Talk about an AMAZING hospital! The maternity wing was immaculate and beautifully decorated. It […]

Today marks FIVE years since Adam and I were married! In some ways it feels like yesterday, in others it was a million lifetimes ago. Our two beautiful girls keep us busy, but we wouldn’t have it any other way! For those that didn’t know me back then, it probably won’t surprise you to learn […]

I still remember when I first met the Dominick family. It was summer 2014, and I was VERY pregnant with Caroline. I was determined to have an unmedicated childbirth: I’d read the books, studied breathing techniques and positions, and even signed Adam and myself up for natural birth classes so we’d be ready for baby. […]

I see you, wedding guest. Maybe it’s your niece getting married, or the groom was your college roommate, or you’ve worked with the bride’s parents for twenty years and she’s basically another daughter to you. You look awesome. You’ve got a sitter for the kids and are looking forward to an evening out, celebrating this […]
