Wedding Albums

March 2nd, 2012

One thing I love almost more than wedding photography itself is a good wedding album! I know everybody wants the digital files to share on FB and email to friends, but there is nothing like a good “old fashion” album. Now the albums that I use are not your grandparent’s wedding album. These are beautiful, flush mount albums with the option to have a picture on the cover, leather, exotic, leather or cloth. The main bridal albums are offered in 10×10 or 12×12 sizes. I also offer parent albums in 8×8 or larger.

Melanie & Dewey

January 29th, 2012

It is very rare that we have beautiful, not completely freezing, January days here in the DC area. Thank goodness the weather decided to cooperate for me this weekend. The morning started out a little windy and a bit chilly but who cares with the crazy sunny blue sky we had. About halfway through our session it warmed up a little more but… maybe that’s because I was running up and down the stairs at the National Harbor. If you have never been to the National Harbor first thing in the morning, go! It is quiet and beautiful and on a day like yesterday, perfect views of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and Old Town Alexandria. Anyway, I had a great time photographing Melanie and Dewey yesterday! Oh and thank you so much, Dewey, for smiling even though you were feeling very under the weather! I hope to see you guys soon!

Experimenting with film… Again!

December 13th, 2011

As most people know… or maybe not, I learn photography when film was still cool. After working with digital for the past 7 years, my heart and the artist in me has been craving some old school film photography! I feel like digital has made me a little lazy to be honest and not as creative as I once felt. So… I’m taking it back a little and as I shoot it more film, I hope to post more! Hopefully I will start offering film sessions as an alternative in the new year!

Enjoy!

This is Meredith and Crystaline! Two of my photography sisters. We try to meet up every Tuesday just to have breakfast, catch up with each other and just support each other in our photography growth. I’m so happy I met them last summer and I absolutely love these ladies!

This set of pictures is from our day trip to Ocean City, Maryland. I decide to drag my film camera along to see what I would get! I didn’t shoot as much as I thought I would only because I had to keep my 2 year old from eating the sand!

Brandi and Steve – Oxon Hill Manor

December 2nd, 2011

This year I have had the pleasure of second shooting with the fabulous photographer Marta Locklear of Marta Locklear Photography. She is simply amazing, a ton of fun, a great teacher and so happy to call her a friend!

Here are a few of the pictures I took while helping her out with this beautiful wedding. Check out her blog to see more from this wedding: Brandi & Steve

Here I am trying Marta’s famous “shooting yourself in the mirror” shot! I haven’t quite perfected it but I got her to pose with me in one. I swear this woman doesn’t take a bad picture!

Hama and Rheanna

November 7th, 2011

After a very rainy September, we could not have asked for better weather on this first Friday in October. Hama and Rheanna decided to have a small intimate wedding with about 20 of their closest family and friends. Beautiful Meadowlark Botanical Gardens was the perfect setting for a fall wedding. After the ceremony in the gazebo, they went straight into the first dance to Eric Benet and Tamia’s “Spend my Life With You”. Afterwards we all headed over to Chef Geoff’s in Tysons Corner, VA for the reception. I enjoyed being a part of this loved filled, beautiful wedding.

Enjoy!

Baby Galloway

September 19th, 2011

Thirteen years ago, I heard a voice yell across the The Set at Florida A&M, “HEYDC”! I turn around and there is Neesie waving and smiling at me. We met at freshman orientation but we didn’t remember each others names but she knew what I would answer to.

Thirteen years later, here we are. She married the love of her life almost 2 years ago to the date and they had their son less than 24 hours ago.

Saturday morning we met up for a quick maternity session before I had to rush off to shoot a wedding. Around 10pm, I got a text that her water broke! Phew…Thank goodness we didn’t let another day pass! Anyway, here are a few from our maternity session and a few of Baby Galloway at about 12 hours old. All 9lbs 13oz of him!

I love you guys with all my heart!
