My love for photography began as a little girl, watching my grandmother - an amateur photographer herself - follow me around with a camera. I picked up my first DSLR at 16, and the rest was history. More than a decade later, I’m based in Old Town Alexandria and specialize in family, newborn, and maternity photography throughout Northern Virginia and Washington, DC.
For me, the best part of this job is getting to know the people in front of my camera. I want to hear your stories, learn what makes your kids laugh, and genuinely have fun with you while we’re together. My approach to sessions is relaxed and playful. You don’t need to show up knowing what to do. I’ll guide and pose you throughout the session, keep things moving, and adapt as we go, with plenty of room for play and personality along the way. My job is to handle the session so you can simply enjoy it.
From first inquiry to final gallery, I aim to create more than just beautiful images — I offer an experience rooted in ease, trust, and genuine connection. Thoughtful planning and natural direction allow you to feel present in each moment, knowing your story is being documented with care.
Your life is worth remembering — not just the milestones, but the in-between moments too. I approach every session with a heart for celebration, honoring the beauty, meaning, and joy of this season you’re in right now.
Your story is unique, and it deserves to be told with care. From quiet details to candid connection, I aim to capture what makes your life yours — with timeless images that feel like you and last for generations.
