I got so lucky photographing this gorgeous family at Cabell’s Mill! My photographer friend Erin referred their session to me. I didn’t even realize I had already met them in October of 2016! When I arrived at their family session they looked so familiar and the first thing they asked was if I shot Stacy’s and Mel’s wedding […]

Photographing sunrise DC family sessions are being requested more and more and I am ok with that! How cool is it that we are able to live so close to our nation’s capital and photograph sessions with these incredible monuments! This particular session was absolutely freezing! We scheduled a sunrise session to beat the DC […]

There is nothing quite like the cherry blossoms in DC. It’s the only reason I would wake up at 5am, drive to Arlington, park, and take a taxi into the city. You may ask, why wake up so early and photograph at the Tidal Basin? Once 10am hits, the Tidal Basin becomes very crowded and no […]

As I was driving one day, I looked over and spotted this little field at an intersection in Woodbridge with a bunch of cherry blossoms and I thought to myself I have to have a session there! Sure, it’s in the middle of town at an intersection and it’s not very secluded like a park […]

6 Years Ago 6 years ago my husband and I were a newly engaged couple searching for our wedding venue. One day, Danny and I were walking around the Ferguson’s property in Edinburg, Virginia. Their home is one of favorite places in the Shenandoah County because we you’re surrounded by trees right along the Shenandoah […]

Here is it! The best of families 2017. I believe that capturing your family photos is so incredibly important, especially when you have young kids but even as they grow. Unfortunately, my own family didn’t get a chance to take family photos at all in entire year! My mom and I said we must change […]

The best compliment you can give your photographer is by referring your friends and family! That’s how I met the Collins family. The Collins go to church with the Anderson family who I’ve photographed for the last few years. During the Collins Manassas Battlefield Family Session, I found out that they used to live a […]

I meet the Brown family at Leesylvania State Park Family Session Woodbridge a few days before Halloween. Jessica and Richard met me in the parking lot with their son Greyson who was a little shy at first. I started asking Greyson about Halloween since it was just around the corner. There was a lot of […]

Every year since 2011 I’ve gotten an email from the Pifer family wanting to schedule their annual family photos. We usually schedule their family session in my hometown when I am in town for either Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years. This year we scheduled their family session in Edinburg, Virginia, a very special place in […]
