To the boy who made me a mom, please help me wish my first son a very Happy 4th Birthday! I’m feeling a bit emotional as I reflect on the past year with Jack… and the fact that he’s already four. It’s been a year full of growth—he’s traveled a lot, made new friends, gained […]

Sorry that this post is long-winded! It has been a while since my last blog post (so embarrassing, haha!) and a personal update. 🙂 For those who do not know, we welcomed our son, Owen, into this world on June 12th! Looking back on what felt like the longest pregnancy, I cannot believe it was […]

Kenzi and Jack are SO excited to start their little family here in Colorado. I might be biased, but my husband and I believe this was one of the best places for us to raise our son. There’s so much to do in the mountains to raise an adventurous boy! I’m excited that Kenzi and […]

I knew I was in for a treat after I photographed Ryan and Paige’s engagement session in Washington DC — They are not only down to earth but classy. The Clifton Inn in Charlottesville, Virginia, had an appealing factor that carried the same class Ryan and Paige embodied. Their closest family and friends gathered to celebrate them […]

In the photography business, word of mouth is powerful. Thanks to a mutual friend (heyyyy, Jess!!), I was connected with one of her best friends who lives in Colorado. 🙂 Claire reached out wanting updated family portraits with their toddler and wanted fall vibes AND greenery. After recently photographing at Bear Creek Park in Colorado […]

I’ve been dying to share Ryan and Kelsey’s wedding day on the blog! Their Virginia vineyard wedding exuded Southern charm at its finest, especially with the bespoke signage. The details were beautiful, but the party was super fun! Ryan & Kelsey’s Wedding Day Ryan and Kelsey wanted to provide an experience for their guests, and […]

This Sunday, February 11th, is a day that will be honored in our household, for the baby we only met through the ultrasound monitors. I didn’t think I was going to share this pregnancy loss story on the blog, but it felt fitting for this weekend would’ve been his/her birthday. The steps to healing are […]

What a romantic evening! The sky showed off for Olivia and Marshall’s Skyline Drive Virginia mountain engagement session! And their sweet laughs/smiles lit up the photos more. <3 I appreciated them driving from the DC metro area for these portraits in the mountains. Shenandoah Mountain photos are some of my favorite sessions in Virginia! Talk […]

Miles, Elizabeth, and I met one morning in Washington DC to document this sweet engagement season that seems to fly by. They were excited to have their portraits taken in a meaningful place to them! I love it when couples incorporate their favorite sports team too (as you’ll see at the end of this blog […]

Typically, I organize a full afternoon of Christmas mini-sessions every year. In fact, I don’t think I’ve missed one year (minus the year my son was born in 2020) since the second year of my business in 2013. But this year was a little different due to the busy season (I’m definitely counting on it […]
