When Nikki first contacted me about wedding photography, the line that stuck out most in her inquiry was “Our families and friends mean the world to us, so we’re excited to have everyone under one roof to celebrate!” When things started to go south with covid, I knew that a change in plans would be […]

I can pose people perfectly, find the most beautiful light and location, and get all my camera settings just right. I can even give prompts that encourage emotion and interaction. What I can’t do is fake authenticity, TRUE JOY, contagious love…. that stuff comes from having clients like Laura and Davin. And that’s the stuff […]

Sean and Katherine had to come up with a brand new wedding plan, including a change in venue, just months before their big day. (Thanks 2020!) You would never have known because each detail was perfect! And I’m thinking the patience and endurance these two showed during it all shows the kind of strong marriage […]

Last Friday Haley and Cody became Mr and Mrs Jewell! Not only were they dealing with an international pandemic, but the weather was also throwing them a curveball, with strong storms moving across the area. As soon as I arrived I was struck with how relaxed and positive Haley was! The mood of the day […]

Mona and Saman are two of the kindest, most fun people you’ll ever meet. Their wedding celebration was full of laughter, dancing, friends, family and SO MUCH LOVE! I was honored to be chosen to capture this incredible day. These are some of my favorite images from their winter wedding at Manor Country Club!   […]

Cora and Marko are one of the kindest couples I’ve worked with! Spending time with them is easy, conversation is positive and interesting, and they make the people around them feel special. I photographed Cora’s sister’s wedding in March, so I’ve gotten to know this whole family in the last year. It’s been an ABSOLUTE […]

  The first time Kate reached out to me through email, I could sense her warmth. (Not everyone has the gift of coming across that well in writing!) She told me about her and Ryan, and their sweet pup, as well as how much they love their niece. Sometimes I can tell almost immediately that […]

All week long we planned and prepared because there were storms forecasted for Lily and Eddie’s outdoor celebration. (We had not only a plan b, but also a plan c!) But instead, they got an absolutely PERFECT day to celebrate their love and commitment to one another. Sunshine, a storm that blew through quickly (after […]

I’ve known and loved Jessica as a client and friend for quite a few years now. To see her with Derick has been such an absolute joy! I love watching them laugh together, parent together and face challenges with grace together. They are such a great team! Last fall these two had a lovely and […]

Tracey & Jon were married Saturday at Evergreen Country Club in Haymarket, VA. The heat index had to be over 100 degrees, but I don’t think I heard anyone complain all day! This was a day full of smiles, laughter, fun and celebration! Tracey and Jon have been together 12 years, so everyone involved in […]
