The National Arboretum is a very large outdoor nature museum that has The National Capitol Columns inside, which is one D.C.’s well known monuments. This was my first time visiting the Arboretum and one thing I did not realize was how large so it is. It is miles and miles of nature. So it was a little challenging to find where on the grounds the actual monument is. Luckily for me Cherise and her Mom met up with me and directed me to the exact right spot. Honestly if it weren’t for them I would probably still be turned around trying to find the monument. 😂Although the views were stunning, I have to say my favorite part was getting Cherise in front of my lens and having her awesome mom there as a helper. These two are so fun and sweet. It was like photographing a friend I’ve known for years.

The McMilllian’s are adorable and honestly this session was breeze to photograph. Photographing families with small babies can always be a little nerve wrecking going into them because you never know how the session will go. One missed nap can through everything out of whack. 😂But baby CJ is baby perfection…

I am so excited to finally be able to share Marcy and Carls Maternity session with you today. This is definitely one of my favorite Maternity Sessions of all times! Not just because I love Marcy dearly and her family is just to cute for words. But also because she is always down to try something new! That's the joy of photographing a fellow photographer. They will do anything to get a good shot. And Waterfall Glenn proved to be the PERFECT location for this adventurous Mommy and Daddy...

Hey guys! I think I am finally getting the hang of this blogging thing. I am not as consistent as I want to be yet but I am getting there so bare with me (lol). But today I am pumped to share some new images with you all from Jenisa and Lester's Engagement Photo Session...

If you know me at all then you know much I absolutely adore Family Photography! Capturing moments is so important when you have a growing family. Thats why I am so excited to share the photos from the McBride Family Photo Session. Mommy, Daddy and their FIVE (yes I said five lol) little ones took family photos on Easter Sunday at their beautiful home and...

Wow. Time is really flying! It is already 4 months into 2017. And can you believe baseball season is here already? In honor of such a fun day I wanted to share with you some fun birth announcement photos I took a few months ago.

Spring Mini Sessions are discounted photos sessions that are only offered seasonally to the general public. They are great opportunities to capture Family Portraits, Engagement & Maternity Photos and even get those new Head-shots you have been needing for so long. I am even adding some travel dates to my Mini Sessions this year...
