Brianna and I went to College together and I was so excited to see when she got engaged. I was more excited when she reached out to say that they were going to plan a pandemic micro-wedding in their backyard in the suburbs near DC. I think Briana has a career in wedding planning should […]

I met Danielle and Steven, at the beginning of the year. As we met at a Panera, we joked- I’m sure this Covid thing won’t be a big deal. Now in October, we have seen the full life span of it- the super scary of April, the relative calm of the summer and now the […]

I know that Kayla and William’s engagement session is in the Fall but there was something about this sunrise session that felt a lot like spring. There was the cool breeze but the temperature was warm and a bright sun. I think Kayla’s second outfit also contributed to that spring vibe. We walked along the […]

We started on the docks of Centennial Park. Porter liked the ducks and pointing them out to us. Pointing out his new sister…well […]

When Kellie emailed me to set up family photos she remarked how the last full family portrait they had was when their boys were in elementary school. Now they were teenagers! Amazing how fast life moves! I met them at their home and we walked to the park behind their home. I know photos are […]
