I love seeing my children like this: barefoot by the water, running around with sweaty, messy hair, pockets full of sand, and experiencing the magic of childhood. This is life right here and thank God for it!

In the past three months…we bought a house, renovated that house *ourselves*, began booking 2022 weddings, edited countless galleries, and MOVED!…

Moving forward, I am so so SO excited to share that I will be offering services IN STUDIO. I will serve as a visual artist and fine art photographer, offering studio, at home, and on location maternity, newborn, and family photography within Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland areas…

My little family and I flew to Plymouth, Michigan for a three-day weekend to celebrate my second cousin’s wedding that I had the honor and joy of photographing! It was thee perfect weekend and although we flew back home […]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from my family to yours! Christ is born! We are still singing Christmas carols and eating Christmas cookies at the El Massih house. We get a whole 12 days of Christmas and won’t take the tree down until Epiphany (on January 6th!) 🙂
