Yodith | Washington, DC Lifestyle Photographer

Happy Friday!

I realized that a lot of the artist spotlights I’ve done, I’ve yet to share the full sessions! So I’ll remedy that by sharing them over the next few months- First up is Yodith!

You may remember her artist spotlight feature at the beginning of the month. Definitely one of my favorites beacuse I absolutely love her photo series with her grandmother.

It’s always weird for the photographer being photographed, but we had such a fun time together and her photos turned out absolutely beautifully :)

Felicia | Los Angeles, CA Lifestyle Photographer

Happy Wednesday!

So happy to share this session with you today :)

On my last trip to LA this past November, I linked up with Felicia (you may remember her from here) and we had a lovely session at her home! I have been loving the home-based sessions lately because they have a great feel and really allow my clients to be completely themselves because they are in their element!

We didn’t forget about my first love of outdoor photography though! Definitely got some cool shots that sooo make me miss the warm LA sun since it’s currently… 27 degrees outside :/ 

Take a mini vacation, think warm thoughts, and check out Felicia’s session :) Her dynamic personality is perfectly captured in these photos ♥

Gill Family | Washington, DC Family Photographer

Happy Tuesday!

I hope everyone on the east coast is staying warm and dry :) We didn’t get too much snow in DC, but winter precipitation always kinda slows things down around here… I don’t mind because I still have lots of indoor work to do lol.

So who do I have to share with you today? The lively Gill Family! 

You may remember Celena from her colorful headshot session last summer! This time we got together for a fun family session! As you can imagine, mom and dad have a lot going on, not only with 4 boys, but with their own respective businesses to run- talk about busy! But they manage to keep it all together AND look amazing while doing so!

As it would happen it was raining the day of their session, but they were troopers! And we made it work despite the rain :)

Then we headed inside for the second half of their session :)

Aaris & Paris | Washington, DC Lifestyle Photographer

Happy Friday beautiful people :)

So excited to share this session with you guys today!

This past fall I got together with my former classmates Aaris & Paris for a fun “just because” session. I’ve known these ladies since elementary school and I love how, despite being twins, their individuality is clearly evident and awesome :) So I wanted to document it!

These pictures make me soo happy! The light, the locations, the makeup, their hair! Not to mention their beautiful relationship… I could go on, but I won’t lol. The pictures tell the story better than I can anyway :)

Melody & Chad | Baltimore, MD Wedding Photographer

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

I am dreadfully behind in blogging my 2014 weddings so I’m going to try and remedy that over the next few weeks :)

Our first wedding last year was Tiffany & Alonzo and the following month we shot this beautiful couple!

I canNOT tell you how much I enjoyed working with these two. You know how you can just tell when people are genuinely in love and everyone else around them can’t help but glow because they’re surrounded by so much happiness? That was what shooting this wedding was like. 

Their day was full of so many personal touches! Melody wore her mom’s wedding dress, Chad sung a surprise song for Melody after exchanging vows, the reception decor was all DIY and Baltimore-inspired… These two love their city, their friends, families, and each other very much. And their wedding day was the perfect reflection of it all :)

Check out the full wedding recap here via their slideshow! Set to their first dance song "Stay With You" by John Legend. 

If the video embed doesn't work, you can view the slideshow HERE.

These two are actually expecting a brand new baby girl in a couple weeks! I wish them nothing but continued happiness and can’t wait to see their beautiful family blossom in the years to come :)
