Twice a year, I offer family mini sessions: once at the holidays and once in springtime! I think these moments are so important to capture because kiddos tend to grow up so quickly that photos twice a year barely cut it! While holiday cards and updates are important, so are springtime celebrations!

Spring Mini Sessions | District of Columbia Cherry Blossom Mini Sessions | 2019

Judee & Justin, what a pair! These two are first time expecting parents and I could not be more thrilled to have documented this part of their journey. This may be the last set of images they have together as a party of 2! They are expecting identical twins in the next few months and will be surprised by the gender on delivery day!

Washington DC Maternity Photos | Thomas Jefferson Memorial Maternity Session | Judee and Justin

Don’t you think this looks like an Anthropologie add?! I don’t often shoot families but I just can’t say no to Adleigh and Chace! They are the perfect clients. They are super in love and have the easiest/most smiley little girl on the planet. I am heartbroken that these two moved to Iowa right after this session. This little family wanted one last photo session in their favorite spot overlooking the city. Adleigh decided to pack a little picnic which was the perfect way to enjoy the grassy spot near the Iwo Jima memorial.

DC Family Picnic | Washington DC Lifestyle Photographer | Ramey Family

Lately, I have been getting a lot of inquiries for Lifestyle sessions. While I focus primarily on weddings and engagements, I will make certain exceptions (mainly for past clients and friends) and delve into the world of family and lifestyle photography. I wanted to create this resource for my clients to explain the kind of photography I do and do not do when it comes to these sessions! Definitely reach out for pricing and availability if the info below applies to you!

From Bride to Baby | Kir Tuben Family Education | Maternity and Lifestyle Photos

I have ALWAYS wanted to shoot at Federal Triangle!! I am so so happy that Ritzy and Koji jumped on board with my vision! We both have the same taste in cityscapes and love all things french. We began our morning at Lincoln and ended in the middle of DC for from European inspired backdrops. Cafe inspired engagement photos? Yes please!

Federal Triangle Engagement | District of Columbia Engagement Photos | Koji and Ritzy

I will never stop thanking Pinterest for connecting me with Shannon and Ben. Shannon wanted some quintessential DC engagement photos and my goodness we got them! It was a little foggy at sunrise at the Jefferson Memorial but that didn’t stop us from getting amazing images! Shannon is also my favorite because she read all of my blog posts! She wore a maxi dress AND brought her sister as a dog handler. Hello perfect client.

District of Columbia Engagement Photos | Blagden Alley Engagement | Shannon and Ben

It’s SUPER rare for me to snap an in home session like this one but I couldn’t say no to Adleigh and Chace! I reserve family sessions for past clients and I just KNEW this one would be an instant favorite of mine. Adleigh and I are style twins; we have a mutual love of blush, Lulus and blogger Amber Fillerup! Her nursery stepped out of my dreams! If Ben and I ever venture into this stage of life, Adleigh will be my first call for home design tips!
