It was so nice to see one of my favorite families in DC for a fun morning in the garden! The best part of spring sessions is there is not quite as much sweating as DC summertime… and of course there was some laughing, some tickling, and even some poop jokes. And lots of smiles from these two fun kids and their parents!
In the heart of Chevy Chase, this family invited me into their home to meet their newest (and tiniest) roommate: two-week-old baby girl, already running the show. Despite the snow outside, it was nice and warm in their beautiful home and she performed perfectly. It was a session filled with cuddles, fun, and the undeniable charm of a newborn who clearly knew she was the star.
Welcoming baby sister into the world, this beautiful family celebrated with a cozy newborn photo session in their Washington, DC home. Big sister, just three years old, beamed with pride as she gently held her new baby sister, already stepping into her new role with love and curiosity. Between snuggles and giggles, the bond between siblings began to bloom right before the camera and I’m so happy we could capture this chapter in their family’s life.
On a perfect crisp fall morning, this little curly haired babe brought pure joy to his family photo session. The golden leaves at Rock Creek Park were the perfect backdrop for this family’s first photo session. Between leaf tosses and tight family hugs, their love and laughter shone through in every frame. It was a beautiful reminder that the best photos often come from the smallest, unscripted moments.
I had the pleasure of working with one of my favorite repeat families for a fall photo session at Bishop’s Garden in Washington, DC. Their two young boys, full of energy and smiles, brought the garden to life as they ran through the vibrant autumn leaves and explored the beautiful scenery. It’s always such a joy to see familiar faces return, and this session was no exception, with each shot capturing the love and connection that grows year after year. The stunning fall backdrop at Bishop’s Garden perfectly complemented the family’s warmth, making for another unforgettable set of memories.
Ever since I moved to Silver Spring, Maryland, I have mostly stopped doing photos in Virginia. But once in a while a trip to Virginia is worth it for a very special session. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing this adorable 4-month-old baby boy and his family’s playful Goldendoodle in Virginia. Can you believe his big smile? The combination of the baby’s sweet expressions, the parents loving looks, and the vibrant fall foliage created the perfect setting for a memorable photo shoot.
This little dude will forever have a special place in my heart. I did his newborn session on Capitol Hill just days before I gave birth to my own daughter—so basically, we were both going through it. I’ve loved seeing him morph into a happy and busy toddler. This time, we lucked out with a picture-perfect Washington, DC fall day—crunchy leaves, golden light, and one very photogenic goofball. 🍁📸.
