Joy. 🤍

For about 12 years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing the children where my kids attended preschool. True confession: this is one of the hardest jobs I do!

Capturing sweet expressions and genuine smiles without Mom or Dad nearby, without candy bribes, and with a whole lot of little personalities in a very short amount of time is no small feat! I do my best to earn their trust, make them feel comfortable, and capture those adorable faces parents love so much.

But this year, something really struck me as I was editing. The innocence. The joy. Both so apparent in their eyes.

In a world that can feel so full of fear, uncertainty, and worry, seeing these little faces reminded me of the beauty that still exists all around us. There is something so special about the unfiltered joy of a child, and I never want to take it for granted.

Sometimes a photograph reminds us of more than just what someone looks like. It reminds us of what is good, what is beautiful, and what is worth holding onto.

God is good. ❤️

Golden light, gorgeous fall colors, and SO much laughter! 🍂☀️

Kristen and Shraver brought all smiles and energy to their engagement session at Oatlands Historic House & Gardens. It was one of those perfect fall days when everything just comes together!

I’ve been editing their images with a smile on my face, reliving all these sweet, fun moments. I hope you love this little sneak peek as much as I loved capturing it!

These two are so much fun together, and I couldn’t be more excited for them and all that’s ahead. The countdown to the wedding is ON! 🥂❤️

Congratulations, Kristen & Shraver! So happy for you both!

There is just something so beautiful about a pregnant momma. ❤️

Maybe it’s the glow, the anticipation, or the fact that she’s already loving someone she hasn’t even met yet. And as a mom myself, I know there is truly nothing like becoming a mother.

I absolutely loved this maternity session. These two are such a beautiful couple, and you can already see so much love between them as they get ready to welcome their little one.

I’m also so grateful to be able to photograph families through the support of Hope in NOVA. There is so much good happening when families are surrounded by people who believe in them and walk alongside them.

Such a beautiful session with a beautiful couple. So happy for you!🤍

Still thinking about Sunday... 🤍

A little sneak peek from the first touch and ceremony at The View At Bluemont | Wedding Venue, where the views were incredible, the manor house was gorgeous, and somehow the rain hold off all day long.

But honestly, it was the people who made this day so special. Everyone was so kind and genuinely happy to be there, and these two… they just fit. The kind of couple who make you smile watching them together and remind you of just how special it is when two people find their person.

I loved every minute of it — from the quiet anticipation of the first touch and their private vows to the ceremony, the laughter, the happy tears, and all those little in-between moments that made the day feel so personal and heartfelt.

More from this beautiful Bluemont wedding coming soon. 🤍📸

Korean wedding tradition + the Potomac River + birds + Chuck Taylors + one seriously fun dance floor. 🥂✨

Joanna and Joshua’s wedding at River Creek Club in Leesburg was SO them.

They began the day in gorgeous traditional Korean wedding attire that their family had sent all the way from Korea. Joanna’s hanbok even featured embroidered birds—which was the sweetest surprise because birds were woven throughout their wedding details, from the carved table number holders to their cake. 🐦

Then they switched into their American wedding attire for the reception… with Chuck Taylors, because obviously. 😎

Since these two love being outdoors (and Joshua loves to fish!), we had a blast exploring the beautiful River Creek grounds and the Potomac River for portraits. The setting could not have been more perfect for them.

And when the reception kicked off? 💃🕺 A2Z Weddings & Events absolutely kept the dance floor hopping!

I loved all the details that made this wedding uniquely Joanna + Joshua—meaningful family traditions, nature, personal style, and a whole lot of fun.

Honor our heroes.
Love our freedoms.
Respect those who protect us.
Be kind.
Give thanks.
Never forget. 🇺🇸

About five years after 9/11, I was given an opportunity that has stayed with me ever since.

I was asked to photograph three survivors of the Pentagon attack for Washington Hospital Center. I met these incredible people, listened to their stories, and created portraits that documented not only what they had survived, but who they were beyond the tragedy.

These weren’t simply portraits. They were stories of courage, resilience, friendship, and lives forever changed.

One of my subjects was only on her second day of work at the Pentagon when the plane struck. She was working at a fax machine when the attack happened and was able to escape the building, but suffered severe burns over much of her body. Years later, she was still undergoing surgeries and navigating an entirely different life.

Another survivor lived with significant mobility and accessibility challenges as a result of his injuries. His home had been adapted around those limitations, creating a space that made everyday life a little more manageable.

What struck me most was hearing that some survivors felt forgotten.

That is something I have never forgotten.

These photographs were created as part of a campaign for Washington Hospital Center to help secure funding for a specialized trauma center in the Washington, DC area—one designed to treat victims of terrorism and other major crises.

I feel incredibly honored that photography allowed me to meet these survivors, hear their stories, and preserve a small piece of their journeys.

Today, on September 11, I remember those who lost their lives, the families who lost loved ones, the first responders and heroes who ran toward danger, and the survivors whose lives were forever changed.

May we remember.
May we give thanks.
May we never forget. 🇺🇸

Ready or not… here they come! 🤍😂

There is SO much love in this crew, and this family session was just the best kind of chaos, fun, and togetherness!

Sometimes the most meaningful place for family photos isn’t a fancy venue or a perfectly manicured location—it’s home. The place where life actually happens. The place filled with inside jokes, muddy shoes, favorite spots, and a million memories.

We photographed the grounds around their home, and suddenly these portraits became about so much more than “family pictures.”

It’s the lake they fish in. 🎣
The path they walk together. 🌿
The sunsets they watch. 🌅
The fire pit where they gather. 🔥
The place their kids will grow up remembering as home.

THAT is why I love lifestyle family photography. Years from now, these images won’t just remind them what everyone looked like—they’ll bring them right back to this season of life and the place they loved living it in. ❤️

And this crew? So much personality. So much fun. So much love. My kind of session! 📸✨

If you’ve been thinking, “We really need to get our family photos done,” consider this your sign. 😉 I’d love to photograph your family in the places that mean the most to you—whether that’s your own backyard, a favorite trail, or one of Northern Virginia’s beautiful outdoor locations. Send me a message and let’s plan something fun! 🤍 Fall sessions are booking now!
