It’s evenings like this one that make me believe in love. Jessica and Bryant eloped on the national mall on a Wednesday. With the pandemic in full swing, they decided to make private vows to one another and self-officiate at the DC War Memorial. We took a handful of portraits at Lincoln before walking to […]

DC War Memorial Wedding | National Mall Wedding Photos | DC Wedding Photographs | Jessica and Bryant
First comes love then comes marriage…. then comes engagement session?? Welp, if 2020 taught us anything it’s that life can be unpredictable. I actually photographed Erinn and Jon’s intimate Anderson House wedding mid-pandemic last year and we realized they never actually took engagement photos! When they reached back out I was over the moon excited […]

Rose-Helen and Filippo were my first ‘pink tree’ clients of the year! Knowing that the tidal basin might be shut down due to COVID, we decided to go for magnolia photos instead; and oh boy, was it a treat. We began at sunrise at the Enid A Haupt Garden with their adorable puppy Roots (who […]

David wanted to surprise Jamie during their trip to DC to visit their friends. They traveled all the way from New York to visit her pal Ashley on her birthday weekend.

Kyle knew he wanted to propose to Lisa during their trip to Washington DC. He had planned months in advance to catch the cherry blossoms only to be a week early! Not to worry. The magnolias bloom first in the district so we got the pink tree fix even if the cherry blossoms hadn’t bloomed! […]

Alyssa and Ethan probably had one of my favorite sessions of the year. We knew we wanted cherry blossoms but also knew the tidal basin might be closed due to the pandemic. As it turns out, we went at sunrise on a weekend and had no problem at all with pedestrian access. In fact, these […]

When I told a pal I was doing a private mentoring session for a photographer she said “isn’t that giving up your secret sauce?” I couldn’t help but laugh. My goal is to always raise other photographers up & build more self sustaining businesses (particularly those run by women)! I photographed Jenna, who owns her […]

John and Maria found me through past clients and just knew they wanted DC Monument engagement photos. Since Jefferson is under construction and the Capitol is fenced off due to the insurrection, we landed on Lincoln. What a time to be engaged in DC! We woke up early to catch the sunrise light and were […]
