St. Catherine's Senior Shoot

  • Meet Tori

days when I wish I could offer portraits again! I only offer portraits to friends and family because our time is so dominated by our weddings. We LOVE our wedding clients and that is definitely where our heart is but I do LOVE shooting senior portraits for our kids from church! It’s just FUN! I love my time with them and it’s especially fun to photograph the girls! I mean really, what teenage girl doesn’t love modeling for 2 hours?! Tori and her mom walked the campus of St. Catherines School last week and had a blast!

Washington DC Wedding Photographer

  • Mike + Kelly | Engaged

days it can be 50 degrees and it feels like 65! Other days, it can be 50 degrees and feel like 30!! Well, last Wednesday it was in the 50’s but it was FREEZING! The sun was shining but the wind was roaring through DC during my eshoot with Mike and Kelly! They were such great sports about the temperature and the never ending wind that kept blowing hair in their faces. That’s how you know you are working with GREAT couples. If they can make it work in less than ideal conditions, then I have struck gold in the client department! I had been waiting to meet Mike and Kelly for a while now. They are getting married this coming fall

  • The Snapshot

when life is getting a little crazy if you don’t remember the past month flying by. March was SO busy but it was a GREAT month!! Now it’s time to get down to business. April marks the beginning for us! We will be shooting weddings from now until November with a few little breaks here and there. Thankfully, April isn’t maxed out with weddings! I think God knew that we were going to be a little busy with the home building process. It’s almost a full time job trying to prepare for the move. Not only do we have to prep our current house for renters, we also have to prep for the NEW house!! So much to do! Here are a few HOUSE goals for April:
