It was almost a year ago when we met in person for their engagement session on Skyline Drive. 🙂 And quickly looking back through those photos gives me all of the fall vibes I’m longing for right now. 🙂 It was super cold/windy that day, but fortunately, for their Stone Tower Winery wedding, we didn’t have […]
When I spoke to Nick and Julianne about a meaningful location for their portraits, the Reston Towncenter came up. After all, they live in Reston, and Nick proposed there. 🙂 So we planned to take photos around the town and their home with their pup! But about a month before their portraits, Julianne reached out […]
Marcus and Sophia celebrated 12 years (!!!) of marriage this year, and I was excited to celebrate with them! When Sophia reached out to me, she told me that they never had professional wedding portraits taken — So they wanted to celebrate this milestone by taking wedding portraits at the Garden of the Gods. This […]
Ryan and Paige woke up early to make this session happen — But they made it look like a piece of cake! Months ago, we talked about a backdrop for their engagement session, and the Washington DC monument “row” came up. I like to call it a “row” because there are so many iconic landmarks in […]
The last time I photographed Matt and Angela was pre-kids — They celebrated their anniversary by having photos at the Meadowlark Botanical Gardens with their sweet Roxy pup (RIP). I was excited they asked me to be their photographer again, but this time, their family at Silver Lake Park. A lot changed in 6 years, but they […]
I love the Virginia countryside. The green rolling hills, sunsets, trees, and beautiful views of the Shenandoah Mountains. Whenever I visit from Colorado, there is a side of me that misses the green countryside. I have a lot of appreciation for this beautiful environment, and I’m grateful I have an excuse to visit throughout the […]
Oh, the way these two look at each other. <3 I love looking through these photos from Ryan and Kelsey’s Old Town Alexandria engagement portraits! It seemed suitable to have their portraits taken here since they live in this charming town. Old Town Alexandria is known for its cobblestone streets, brickwork, history, waterfront area, southern […]
This was not Lindsey and Brennan’s first time in front of my camera. In fact, I think I have photographed them at least three different times! Their engagement session, wedding day, and Christmas mini sessions. 🙂 But when Lindsey reached out excitedly sharing that they were expecting, I couldn’t imagine not celebrating this season with […]
Who else loves seasonal mini-sessions? I don’t offer them all year long, but I love the hype up before the event. 🙂 While I hosted mini-sessions in Virginia this year, I wanted to extend an invitation to locals in Colorado! I enjoy any chance to reunite with familiar faces and meet new families. 🙂 I […]
I’ve been looking forward to sharing this sweet and beautiful Great Marsh Estate Virginia wedding with you all! I remember my first phone call with Brendan and Caroline and thought we could be friends. 🙂 Fast forward to their dreamy Seattle, Washington engagement session … they were so easygoing in person and fun! I loved that we started […]
