Hollie, Trent, Jack & Quinn // Arlington, VA

Okay, this family is all sorts of awesome and adorable. I was so thrilled when Hollie asked me to come and take pictures of their family - including their newborn, Quinn! This was my first newborn photoshoot and it was just as cute and fun as I thought it would be. Also, do you guys remember Jack, the cute little tree hugger? Well, he was just as adorable the second time around - and such a great big brother! Thank you Hollie & Trent for the fun morning!! 

Adrianna & Angel // Montrose Park, Georgetown

This couple is so beautiful - inside and out. I just love that their love shines through these photos so strongly! And they are pretty darn hilarious to boot! We spent a beautiful fall afternoon running around Montrose Park in Georgetown - playing in the leaves, walking the trails, enjoying the late afternoon sun - it was SUCH a wonderful shoot. Thank you Adrianna & Angel for the amazing afternoon! 

The Khoobchandanis // US Botanic Gardens

Do you guys remember Rita, Pavan and little Saavn from our fun fall photoshoot at Rock Creek Park last year?! Well, I got to do ANOTHER photoshoot with them this year, and I was thrilled! It was a chilly day, so we ventured indoors to the US Botanic Gardens, which were all decorated for Christmas. It was so lovely! Here are two sneak peek shots of this awesome little family -- isn't it crazy how big Saavn has gotten?! 

Trent, Hollie, Jack & Newborn Quinn // Arlington, VA

What an AWESOME family. Trent, Hollie, Jack & Quinn made this past Sunday morning pretty special for me. It was the first time I'd ever done newborn photography, and they made it an absolute breeze. Let's be honest, they are an adorable family to begin with (which never hurts when doing a photoshoot!) but they were also so pleasant, so excited and so fun to work with. So, without further adieu, I'm thrilled to be able to present my first newborn sneak peek to you...this is Quinn, everyone! 

More to come in the following weeks! 

Adrianna & Angel // Montrose Park, Georgetown

I can't tell you how much fun I had with Adrianna and Angel at their shoot yesterday! We spent the afternoon among the fall leaves in Montrose Park in Georgetown. The perfect weather mixed with the gorgeous scenery was to DIE for. Sounds a bit extreme, but it's true! Adrianna and Angel are naturals in front of the camera - and I think it's obvious in these photos. They were so much fun and so themselves - which always makes for pretty amazing results. The two pictures below literally take my breath away. I can't wait to show you the rest!

Tiffany & Casey - Engaged!

I am so so SO excited to share a sneak peek of Tiffany and Casey's engagement photoshoot with you all! This shoot is particularly near and dear to my heart because Tiffany is a very close friend of mine who I met just after moving to DC. We clicked instantly and never looked back. Just so happens she's also engaged to one pretty awesome fella! 

We started our day in beautiful Old Town Alexandria and finished our day in a very autumn setting at Colvin Mill Park. These two made my job so unbelievably easy - they're naturals!

Kati // Gravelly Point & Theodore Roosevelt Island

Well hello there friends! Even though it is a VERY hot and humid day here in DC, I'd like to take you back to the frigid month of February when I did this fun shoot with my beautiful cousin Kati. We ventured to one of our favorite Northern VA spots along the Potomac River - Gravelly Point Park! It was a majorly blustery day, but it was one of the first where there was a touch of springtime in the air. We had fun watching the planes and strolling along the river. If you've never been to Gravelly Point, I highly recommend it. The Reagan National Airport planes take off and land right above your head! And by "right over" I literally mean dangerously close to you. It's terrifying, but also somehow very mesmerizing and intriguing. It's worth the trip! 

PS - I don't know about you, but these photos make me long for boots, scarves and sweaters. C'mon Fall, hurry up already!
