“Babies don’t keep.” Have truer words been said? I think the answer’s no, even though I wish that weren’t the case. Time flies, and once your new baby arrives, you’re going to want to bottle up each and every detail about them. Trust me – as a fellow mom and teacher, I get it. To […]

Motherhood – So Many Meanings motherhood – noun – the state of being a mother In my opinion, there are many wonders of motherhood. And even more stages of motherhood. Motherhood is different for every mom – yes, there are common threads, but my motherhood doesn’t look like yours. And motherhood changes for moms during […]

What are Q & A Fridays? Did you know I do Q & A Fridays over on Instagram every week? I do! Every single Friday I pop on IG Stories and answer the questions you ask me the day before. And they aren’t all about photography, my business or my sessions. Not at all! I […]

When should we schedule pictures again? If I had a dollar for every time a client asks me this question… No, really, I get asked this A LOT! Usually at the end of a newborn session. And as a DC Baby Photographer I consider myself and expert at answering this. Babies change so much in […]

Twins! Can You Imagine? I truly can’t imagine having twins. I can’t imagine the exhaustion and the chaos.
