If you are new here, hello! I am so glad that you are here. I really am. Since 2011, I've photographed Northern Virginia Families in all the beauty that our gorgeous Loudoun and Fairfax Counties have to offer. i’m a life photographer. i love light, i love love, and i love laughter. like the relentless, hurt your guts, belly-shaking until you cry kind of laughs. i've won some awards, been published here and there, but mostly, i just love my job, my families, and creating lovely images.

I'm a passionate storyteller. i graduated college with a degree in english literature, and since i was a tiny girl, i’ve always been obsessed with stories. sad ones, happy ones, scary ones. a favorite was the bfg by roald dahl. my imagination is wild, curious, and colorful.

I study my light and locations in order to give us the very best backdrop to just be. i want you to hold onto your family and relax. i'll guide you through our time with suggestions to take away any nerves, but for the most part, i step back and let your unique tale take center stage. my sessions are always all-inclusive, meaning digital images are included in the session fee, because i approach my sessions as having both a beginning and an end. a completeness. this is important to me and my art, and i can't put an image limit on that.

For my seasoned veteran families, you have no idea how thankful i am for you. thank you for your constant trust and support. nothing makes me happier than seeing your familiar faces, year after year, watching your babies grow into big kids, and capturing all the goodness in between.
