I had such an amazingly delightful time capturing Julia’s amazing Bat Mitzvah a few weeks back in Northern Virginia. It was a wonderful event with so many family members and close friends. The family were wonderful hosts and I’m sure the party was enjoyed by all. Dancing, games, great food, and so much fun. Mazal [...]


While in Virginia/DC this past weekend I stayed with very dear friends of mine. This was a family that I visited a couple of times a week throughout my last year of college at George Mason University. At the time I was their Latin, spelling, art, religion tutor. A busy homeschooling Mom of four had [...]


Sometimes everything just aligns perfectly. That’s what happened with this sweet couple. Bethany contacted me a few weeks back asking about wedding photography for her upcoming summer wedding in Saline, MI (right near Ann Arbor). I was thrilled at the prospect and we have quite a few things in common. (she and Kevin go to [...]

I had a lovely weekend with some former and new clients back in the DC Area where I began my business over two and a half years ago! Thanks for the lovely sessions, and for those that gave the session a chance despite the gloomy weather.  You’ll see it was worth it!  Look at all [...]


I love people.  I love meeting people.  I love being outgoing and talking to just about anybody. Well this story is a very fun one – as I was flying from Mexico to Michigan 2 months ago by myself with three children (which isn’t alone in any sense of the word!) I saw Juan carrying [...]
