  • Family Portraits

    Yesterday morning I had so much fun doing some portraits of this beautiful family. How gorgeous are they? Take a look (I especially LOVE this first black-and-white of them – so sweet!):






    And then yesterday afternoon I second-shot for Sarah Hodzic along with Michael Juiliano at a really nice wedding in Fort Belvoir, but more on that soon!

  • Her Majesty’s Album

    Okay, I consider myself to be rather computer-savvy usually, but for the life of me I cannot figure out why I can’t embed this slideshow into my blog. But I wanted to post the album layout (in slideshow format) that I designed for Alyssa’s princess party, so I’ll at least post the link. To see the album, click here or click on the image of the cover!

  • Fit for a Princess

    As I mentioned, I had the great honor of photographing a princess party last weekend and here are just a couple of my favorite images (without posting too many faces – I didn’t seek specific permission from all of the parents to post their kiddos’ pictures on the blog):

    Awaiting the arrival of other guests:

    The surprise arrival of Cinderella herself:

    The birthday girl, in awe of Cinderella:

    The birthday girl’s little sister, equally in awe:

    All of the girls looked absolutely fantastic in their princess outfits. And I totally loved seeing the girls’ faces as Cinderella, the ultimate princess, sang songs, told stories and painted the girls’ faces. I had so much fun covering this event!

  • Hunter and Ava

    Just a really quick little peek at Hunter and Ava who I met on Sunday. Hunter had an impressive amount of energy. He was constantly on the move and I’m pretty sure he could’ve kept going for hours!


    Dear sweet little Ava, Hunter’s friend, at just 10 weeks old:

    Look at those tiny toes! She was so ticklish:

  • Carly

    I had the pleasure of photographing beautiful 12 month-old Carly today. She was so excited about our photo shoot that she skipped her morning nap entirely! I wouldn’t have guessed that she missed a nap though – she was an absolute doll, and so easy-going in front of the camera. Here are a few of my favorites:




    Look at those eyes!
