I met the Dixons at Bon Air Park on Friday for their third family session with me! I always love working with this super kind family, but this session was extra special because of what Dad brought along…

I photographed this sweet family back when we lived in New York and now they’re stationed here in the DC so I got to…

Just eighteen months ago, I photographed the Defibaugh’s oldest daughter Annabelle as a newborn, and now her little brother Charlie has arrived!

I met this adorable little family at a tiny park in Arlington earlier this week! These sweet brothers played and giggled and…

To say Anna was the most alert newborn I’ve photographed would be an understatement. This little 10-day-old wanted nothing to do with…

Such a bittersweet session! I’ve been photographing this crew since the year we moved here when Chrissy was pregnant with tiny Gwen! Her and my twins ended up being born…

You’ll see Oliver’s pacifier and favorite show, Daniel Tiger make some cameos below, but that’s just life with a toddler. Thank you to the Loks for…

I think you’ll agree that little Tarn stole the show during this session. And no photographer was going to get in the way of his snack time…

It’s always intimidating to photograph for a fellow photographer, but Darcy’s sweet, laid back family made for a fun, easy session in DC last night…

The Villemez family has reached a big milestone — their 10-year wedding anniversary!! To celebrate, Elise slipped (effortlessly!) back into her gorgeous wedding gown and posed and played for…

As I was leaving at the end of their session, mom made a comment about having been adopted later in her childhood (age 12) and that family photos of her kids are very important to her since she doesn’t have any from when she was their age. This comment definitely stayed with me as I edited their images this week…

You may remember their sneak peek from earlier this month, but it’s time for the full show with their completed film and gallery! Please have a look at the adorable mini film and highlight images from the Ouart’s session…

This mama-to-be was FIVE years old when I started dating my husband back in the day and now she and her awesome husband are about to be parents. It’s still hard to believe sometimes that she’s not that little girl crashing me and Bill’s dates anymore!

As you may know, I recently went through a rebranding with ALP and transitioned away from studio portraiture to on-location storytelling photography. Well, this morning that transition came to a close with my very last studio newborn session with beautiful baby Rory…
