Shyla and Jasper celebrated their engagement with a sunrise cherry blossom photo session at the Washington DC Tidal Basin. We got an overcast morning which really made the pink trees pop! We snapped these a few days after peak bloom but the rain hadn’t set in yet! How lucky! I love the black ensembles underneath […]

Obsessed with these two 🤍 Some photogs find a height difference challenging but I think it’s the most fun! The posing game of “let’s find a hill” “let’s sit” “stairs are our friend” is one of my favorites! Jessie and Dillon actually booked me the same week the cherries popped. I had one slot left […]

Prepare to audibly gasp at the beauty of these two kids. Marley and Peter flew in from Utah for this session and got super lucky with weather and peak bloom! 🌸 Fun fact: we even had some tourist photographers follow us around because they assumed these cuties were models! They were such good sports with […]

What’s funny about this set of imagery is that I usually recommend that couples wear pastels or neutrals at their engagement sessions. 🤍 Mostly because it can be complementary on skin tones and tends to blend with any background- nature or city. I didn’t expect to love this neon number as much as I did, […]

I met Ryann back in the Microstrategy days. I’m so thankful for Ben’s old job since it brought me to these two! I just love being around these two cuties. Their love is playful and genuine and it’s super fun as I get creative to pose these two with feet of height between them! I […]

I will be forever sad that I will not be the one to capture Chris and Ciara’s wedding. These two adorable humans met playing Ice Hockey and fell madly in love. A few years and rescue dogs later, they’re planning their big DC bash for later this year and couldn’t be more excited to finally […]

Lily and Ben are two of my all-time favorite clients! When I had to pick models for a mentoring session, they were the first couple I thought of! I actually shot their wedding during the pandemic but we never did an official engagement together so this was the perfect excuse to get together again and […]

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 […]

I just love when a gal has a signature color. Rachael showed up in this stunner and I knew it had to be a thing. She even has a green engagement ring! She’s basically a real life Elle Woods but subbing out green for pink. These two got super lucky with the cherry blossoms this […]
