Having a wedding or session featured on the world’s largest wedding blog, Style Me Pretty, is always such an honor.

At the start of my career as a wedding photographer in the competitive Washington, DC area, I was taught a valuable lesson very early on — don’t take every wedding that comes your way. This may seem counterintuitive as someone who is trying to build a business from the ground up, but that person explained […]

The stunning gardens of Tudor Place Mansion in the Georgetown district of Washington, DC was the absolute perfect location for Kate and Michael’s engagement session early this fall.

Melissa & Jake were married on the first day of September during their District Winery wedding in Washington, DC. The first weekend always marks the unofficial end to summer, in my eyes, and their big day was the perfect way to send off the season. With the help of her amazing florist, Emily, of Love […]
