Megan and Charles are just the absolute CUTEST couple ever! These photos were for their FOUR year anniversary and I was soooo ecstatic when Megan texted me asking to book a DC session! I shot these two once last summer when I was first kick-starting my business, and I fell in love with them! They […]
I have been obsessing (yes, obsessing) over these photos for the past week and I am SOOO excited to finally share them with everyone! Connor and his family (the fabulous Noonan family!) used to live across the street from me and I have known him since I was very young. We vacation with the Noonans […]
Let me start this post with a HUGE apology for my lack of blogging this week.

I can’t even begin to tell […]

I can’t even begin to explain how adorable these two are together! They drove up to our location and the second they stepped out of the car, I knew it was going to be an AMAZING session! (Not to mention we had a random 60 degree day…score!!) They also had the most adorable outfits and we […]
Jennifer called me a few weeks back and asked me if we could schedule a session in the snow. I was SO excited because I LOVE shooting in the snow…but also a little bit sad because there was none of it in the forecast any time soon. Then, out of no where, snowmaggedon came to […]
Let me just start off by saying that my day prior to this session was just NOT my day. I was not feeling well, didn’t get a good night’s sleep and everything seemed to be going wrong! It was topped off once I arrived at the location for the session when I put my keys down […]
