I haven’t done a Q&A post in a LONG time! So, I thought I would post some frequently asked questions I get as a newborn photographer in Washington, DC. Q: Why do you do a phone consult? A: I know you are busy. I know it’s easier to do everything via text and email, BUT […]

Not only did I have the pleasure of photographing this sweet newborn baby girl, but I have photographed her sister since the time she was born, too. Big sister is such a hoot!  I mean she makes me laugh throughout her sessions, so I can only imagine the personality that Baby S will have as […]

Cake Smashes – Studio or Outdoors Location…location…location.  Yes, the location is important when it comes to Cake Smashes!
