holding onto

the fleeting moments of love, parenthood, and everything in between

Motherhood is what led me here. Being a mom of two, it changed how I saw everything and motivated me to learn how to capture the fast-moving world around me. I'm now so grateful to be one of the first people you call when you're

engaged, when your baby arrives, and to freeze those subtle moments that end up framed on your wall. Based in Northern Virginia, I bring my camera around DC, Maryland, and Virginia to capture your stories.

couples & family photography for the lovers of real connection, art, and storytelling.

MEET THE EYES BEHIND THE LENS

your true crime bestie, adventure seeker & Bravo addict

If you'd rather laugh through a session than fake a smile for one, we're going to get along great. I photograph proposals, babies (fur and human, and real family stories across DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia — and you walk away with images worth framing. Think less photoshoot, more hanging out with someone who happens to have a camera.

The way he makes you laugh. The beauty of motherhood. Tiny toes you can't stop staring at. Whatever the moment, I've got a camera for that.

Her love for her work and her clients was obvious starting from our first phone call

Taylor not only eased my nerves at the shoot and made every moment feel so natural and fun, but also captured our pictures so perfectly that I actually felt beautiful in every picture!
