Ok… I am just GIDDY about sharing this session with you! The Jefferson Memorial is one of my absolute favorite places to photograph, and boy, it did NOT disappoint during Jessica and Stephen’s engagement session! Now… I think I need to preface this entire post by saying that I require all engagement sessions at memorials […]

I looked at my calendar this week and realized that, as of this Saturday, I have officially called Washington, DC home for TWO years now! WOW time flies! Last year, I shared a letter to myself. I shared the words that I would have told the girl getting off the plane, fresh out of college with a dream and not a whole lot of plans. I reread this post this week, and I cried like a baby. It was a bit embarrassing… thankfully, I was alone in my apartment. Goodness… how so many things have changed and how so many things have stayed exactly the same.

Let me tell y’all about Carolina & Brandon…. When we got out of our cars in Old Town Alexandria, I felt like I was meeting up with two old friends! These two are the warmest, most genuine people and just make you feel GOOD when you are in their presence! Carolina greeted me with gluten free/dairy free blueberry muffins (that were absolutely amazing) and the sweetest little succulent that I’ve ever seen… what?! How did I get so lucky?? They’re the kind of people that think of others first and that know how to hold each other just right. We spent their session plotting ways to steal every dog that passed by while touring Old Town on foot, which let me know that they’re my kind of people.

These two… I just can’t, y’all! I had so much fun with Francis and Daniel. A little bit of a back story… these two absolutely LOVE flowers, so much so that Francis’s engagement ring is custom designed to look like a FLOWER (It is gorgeous, just wait ’til you see it!). So naturally, a cherry blossom […]

As a photographer, I often find myself wishing that I could control the weather! This specific morning, I found myself wishing I could crank up the heat for these two, even by a few degrees. If I am remembering correctly, the thermometer was reading 12 degrees, the real feel was -2, and the wind was […]

Y’all, I am just having way too much fun sharing this season’s engagement sessions with you, and I can’t wait for you to see today’s! This session was SO special.

These two! Y’all, I have had some good stuff burning a hole in my hard drive, and I have finally had a moment to get them packaged together into blog posts. I had a few weeks with back to back to back engagement sessions, and let me tell you, it made me SO excited for […]

’Tis the season y’all! I am home, snuggled up next to our tree with a candy cane and a Hallmark movie playing in the background….it’s safe to say that I am pretty much in heaven!  This week’s Friday Chatter is going to be short and sweet! Over the next couple of days, I’ll be wrapping […]
