Tying the Knot:: Kathryn & Bradford:: Old Town Alexandria Wedding Photography

Kathryn & Brad are both firefighters, so of course red seemed like the natural color choice for their big day. What a treat it was to spend the day with this sweet couple and their amazing family.

Boudoirs on Film :: DC Boudoir Photography

Today we’re switchin’ things up a little bit…..adding a little sexy to the mix! We are so excited to finally publicly announce that we are now offering Boudoir portrait sessions. We  have actually been offering these sessions for about 4 years now but typically only book clients that specifically ask if we do so. Our clients have been so happy with the sessions that I’ve become more and more open to the idea. Now some of you are probably wondering what the heck these sessions entail. Typically bride’s will book this session and take beautiful photos of themselves in order to gift them to their future husband on their wedding day. So I guess you would think of it as “pin-up” photos. Here’s a session I did with a beautiful model a couple of weeks ago.
