Sundays are for family walks…
and a little scouting because photographers can’t help it! 😉

What do you think of this spot?
It has water, willow trees, and the Washington Monument. It might just be the perfect place for your next family portrait.

Proud to join Blue Star Families in participating in the National Day of Service here in Washington, DC — alongside more than 1,200 volunteers packing 450,000 meals for the Capital Area Food Bank.

This was part of 9/11 Day’s nationwide effort to provide 9 million meals across 21 cities — a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together in service.

📸✨ Happy Birthday, Daniel!

Wishing you a year full of great listings and sales! It was my pleasure to create this look for you.

Thinking about updating your own headshot?
Treat yourself — whether it’s your birthday or simply time to refresh your look.
A great headshot opens doors, builds trust, and helps you show up as your best self.

There is a large and varied collection of local artists’ work on display.

I have four included from a travel series (Bali, Vietnam, and Korea).
It was fun to hang Seoul Sisters, with my sister.

🌸How do you recharge your creativity?

🍵 I’m enjoying green tea and before diving back into editing a product photography shoot. Sweet moments like these make all the difference!

DC’s cherry blossoms + beautiful products = the perfect inspiration.
