It’s hard to believe that these two get married in just over a month! I have been counting down until their winter wedding for nearly a year and it is just around the corner! When Jamie and Adam told me their vision for their Stone Tower Winery wedding, I already had all the heart eyes… […]

The first time I talked to Victoria via Facetime, we were on the call for so long that my phone died! We instantly clicked so I had been counting the minutes until this Lincoln Memorial engagement session. This is a classic love story or doctor meets nurse and the two fell head over heels! Jonathan […]

When I look at these photos, I can’t believe they almost didn’t happen! Sarah and Connor decided to elope in DC this fall and thus didn’t know if they ‘needed’ engagement photos. I am so glad they decided to take these snaps in Meridian Hill Park! How many times in your life do you get […]

Even though these two are technically based in Charlotte, they are a D.C. couple through and through! Alex and Billy grew their relationship in this city so they wanted to honor their beginning with a classic DC engagement session. They knew they wanted monuments at sunrise and since Jefferson is under construction, we headed to […]

In college, both Hannah and Mark played soccer for John’s Hopkins. It was only common sense that they would meet, it was extraordinary that they fell in love and just happened to wear the same jersey number! What a world. These two have a darling apartment near Logan Circle so we decided to take a […]

I first met Kaitlyn and Steve during my cherry blossom mini sessions. I only had about 15 minutes with these cuties but in that short time, they lit up the camera. Steve is always making Kaitlyn laugh and feel at ease. It was a blast. So when these two reached back out to me to […]

I love nothing more than a gal with a big laugh. Every time Josh made a joke or I accidentally told them a weird pose/direction, Katie had this radiant laugh that lights up the frame. These two were a bit nervous at the start of this session but a few minutes in they relaxed and […]

Some engagement sessions seem so surreal. I have known Emily for over a decade; I actually met her in 2007 on my recruiting trip to Duke! She ended up being my ‘big sister’ on the swim team and part of Sprint Club so we would train together every day. We have seen each other through […]
