Saturday, November 1, 2025 – Afternoon + Sunset Sessions
Manassas National Battlefield Park
There’s something truly magical about autumn afternoons in Manassas. The tall golden grasses, the open meadows, and the soft, painterly sunsets work together in creating breathtaking photos iconic to Virginia.
These sessions are perfect for families who love open space, for couples who want that cinematic glow, or for anyone who wants their portraits to feel warm, romantic, and timeless. Picture yourselves walking hand in hand through the fields as the sky shifts to gold — yes, it’s as dreamy as it sounds.

Friday, November 7, 2025 – Morning Sessions
The Jefferson Memorial
A crisp fall morning at the Jefferson Memorial is pure beauty — the soft light glows against the marble, the reflection on the water is serene, and the atmosphere feels distinctly Washington. These sessions offer a both sophistication and simplicity, perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves the city’s quiet grandeur.
Bring a coffee, stroll by the water, and let’s capture images that feel classic, heartfelt, and enduring.

My goal for every mini session is to make the experience as enjoyable as the images themselves. Here are a few quick reminders to help you get the most out of our time together:
Plan with intention. Think less about matching and more about mood. What do you want your images to feel like — cozy and nostalgic? Refined and timeless?
Arrive early. Take a deep breath, settle in, and enjoy a few extra minutes together before your session begins. Nothing looks better in photos than relaxed, unhurried energy.
Let kids be kids. The best photos happen in the in-between moments — giggles, movement, curiosity. I’ll guide and prompt your family naturally, capturing both the posed and naturally unfolding moments.
Celebrate afterward. You’re already together and beautifully dressed — plan brunch, a park picnic, or a walk through town. The more joy you infuse into the day, the more it will shine through in your photos.
“We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand – and melting like a snowflake.”
— Francis Bacon Sr.
Remember: this season won’t last forever. The laughter, the growing kids, the quiet in-between — these are the moments worth preserving.
