The evening for the shoot, the weather was perfection. I just knew that the fates were with us as we ventured through Harper's Ferry, West Virginia. This is one of my favorite locations to shoot. It presents some difficulties, like the need for a permit, which isn't fun, but fortunately, the National Park Service is quite easy to work with and it's always better to be safe than sorry :) This family came as a referral from one of my clients last year. It was pleasure to spend time together …

Families are Forever: Loudoun County Photographer
When I look at these images from this session, I realize why I love my job so much. I love capturing real life, real emotion, real love. This family had all of these things and more. It's after a session like this that I sit back, take a deep breath and say to myself: "This is what it's all about." I just adore and love their little girl they call: "Birdie." Such an appropriate nickname for a girl who loves her little chicks. She's such a sweet momma to them. It was so nice to sit back, …

Green All Winter Long? Yes! : Northern Virginia Photographer
I love color... yes I do! When winter comes sometimes photographers go into hibernation, not necessarily on purpose, but we look outside at our bare trees and wonder when spring will come again. Not me. I have to admit that I love winter sessions. I really love winter sessions. I love snow, I love the bare landscape, and I also love challenging myself to find new locations or different possibilities. I think winter presents the perfect photography challenge. And I do like a challenge …
