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.

I start every wedding day by sitting down with a big box of my bride’s details and accessories, and y’all, it is so much fun! From my couple’s wedding bands to the bride’s bouquet, to her shoes, gown, jewelry, family heirlooms and, of course, the invitation suite, I love taking a little bit of time to style […]

I feel like I should be starting off this blog post by singing “TO THE GROOM (to the groom to the groom to the groom)…TO THE BRIDE (to the bride to the briiiiiide)!” Now…if you don’t have a certain song from Hamilton stuck in your head, I’m not so sure if we can be friends anymore…this […]

If you’ve worked with me before, or are […]

Phew…y’all! What can I say?! One year ago today, I was stepping off a plane at IAD with a suitcase filled with about 2 weeks worth of clothes, an internship, an audition at a fitness studio that would soon become my home away from home, and a hotel reservation booked. I had nowhere to live, didn’t […]

These two were absolutely UNREAL! Can I just tell you…Jenny and Allen were in town all the way from LAS VEGAS for Jenny’s graduation from GWU with a degree in Master’s of Science in Nursing – Family Nurse Practitioner. So, to say that I was nervous to live up to their excitement is an understatement […]

I just want to start this post off by saying I have been so incredibly up and down and back and forth about pressing publish. As a business owner and young professional, I don’t really love sharing my beliefs online…so today, I am not. Today, I simply let my inner, and somewhat retired, journalist flag hang high and had an amazing time capturing the faces and stories of the Women’s March on Washington. And now I am sharing the product with you.

Oh you guys I have been dying to share these mini sessions with you for so long! After some bad weather and crazy schedules put one on hold, I finally wrapped on my Archibald Project Mini this weekend! I am so thankful for the love of each of these sweet people and had SO much fun working on this project. I mean sweet kiddos, loving couples AND dogs?! What more can a photographer ask for from mini sessions?! Their support of my mission trip means so much to me, and it felt so great to get back behind the camera during this off season.
