It’s no secret that I LOVE shooting editorial work — especially at Great Marsh Estate in Bealeton, VA! This venue is one that I have worked at many times in the past (Great Marsh wedding, Great Marsh maternity portraits, Great Marsh engagement photos) and always love returning to over and over again. I would never want […]

Carling and Dakota celebrated their 5-year wedding anniversary with a stunning vow renewal at the Meridian House in Washington, DC on an idyllic spring day. The spring weather in DC is completely unpredictable; it can be sunny and warm one day and then freezing and raining the next. That’s exactly what happened the week of […]

This May, I captured Heidi and Tucker’s engagement photos at the Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool in Washington, DC. These two had originally planned for a Cherry Blossom engagement session, but, unfortunately, the fleeting nature of the blooms didn’t work with their travel schedule.

The day was slightly overcast, which gave us great light in front of the monument for their photos — when it’s too bright, we usually have to skip this spot! The temperature was also […]

It features highlights from the front, back, and interior of this stunning property, so you certainly do not want to miss it! Part 2 is equally as important, as you’ll finally get a […]

Picking a favorite client is like picking a favorite kid — it varies by the day but, in the end, you really adore all of the equally. After a decade of capturing weddings, it’s usually pretty clear to me from the initial emails between myself and client whether or not we will work well with […]

It was such an honor to capture this wedding portrait session for Emma and Michael at Great Marsh Estate in Bealeton, VA. These two are no stranger to the beautiful Great Marsh Estate — in fact, they were married here just a year prior! They returned for a post-wedding shoot and were the most fun […]
