Aldie, Virginia natural light studio | Northern Virginia family photographer

No Comments

I AM SO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE I HAVE MY OWN NATURAL LIGHT STUDIO!!!! I have DREAMED about this since 2011 when I became a photographer. The studio is located inside our house in Queen Creek, Arizona! I am going to be offering morning sessions Saturdays and Sundays until my girls are in school one day and the house is quiet and empty haha. Then I can do weekdays, but for now I am doing weekends so my wonderful husband can take them out of the house while I shoot! My studio is perfect for families who want to do in […]

The most important part of this blog post is please take note that the hideous basketball hoop no longer exists by our pool. It is long gone and I am so much happier. It was truly ruining my life because I couldn’t possibly take a nice photo with it ruining my background! Goldie’s room has been wallpapered and we LOVE it so much. Evangeline’s room is next! Evangeline is actually switching rooms entirely which is pretty exciting. We are just waiting for our painter to come this month and then I can really show off the entire house. Aliyah snuck […]

June with Evangeline & Goldie | Aldie, Virginia family photographer

In June we escaped our Airbnb for a change of scenery & weather and headed to Flagstaff Arizona, where I froze my butt off. We stayed on the cutest farm airbnb and the girls LOVED it. I couldn’t believe how brave and fearless Goldie was with all their animals. I didn’t take very many photos because we ended up having a photographer come out and photograph us which was so nice. I was actually so cold in Flagstaff, that I was so happy to get back to 100+ degrees in Phoenix haha.

May with Evangeline & Goldie | Aldie, Virginia family photographer

Lots of exploring happened in May. I have some amazing spots on my list now that I am ready to take clients to! I love location scouting with my girls, but unfortunately sunset is after their bed time. If we take them out for sunset photos, they are little nightmares the entire next day! Winter can’t come soon enough haha. We loveeee the Salt River and are thrilled it’s so close to our house. We got to see wild horses one time and it was the most magical thing ever. I already blogged our photos from when we stumbled upon […]

I can’t even begin to tell you how overwhelming it is to move to a new state and not know all the hot photography spots immediately! I have a long list of Arizona photography spots going, but have yet to explore them because of Covid. We decided to drive by the Salt River and were totally blown away by how magical the entire area is. That is without even getting out of the car and going down to the river! The drive is incredible! The mountains, the cacti, the light, the lush trees. Arizona is magic! With everything closed and […]

In April we sold our house and moved to Arizona!!! I am now an Arizona lifestyle photographer and am so excited about it! I have been researching locations here like crazy. If any of my Los Angeles clients come to the Phoenix/Scottsdale area for vacation, I am your girl. I also plan on being in Los Angeles often to do sessions for my repeat, loyal, clients that I love so much. The girls were very excited about our move because we promised them a pool in the backyard and boy, did we deliver! We bought a beautiful farmhouse in Queen […]

March with Evangeline & Goldie | Los Angeles family photographer

No Comments

Posting these photos is bittersweet for so many reasons. We no longer have our hens, but don’t worry! They are with the best family ever. I will post about why we don’t have them anymore very soon. It’s for a good reason, promise! March is the month of many things, most obvious being it is when we first went on lockdown. I am trying to stay creative by photographing our girls as much as possible.

February with Evangeline & Goldie | Los Angeles family photographer

It started off with Evangeline madly in love with Gruff, but now it’s Goldie & Gruff. Forever bffs. She’s constantly wanting to know where he is and saying things like “awww my baby!! Ma baby!! Awwww puppy!!!” I can’t believe how much he has grown since last month’s blog post! The last images in the field are when I needed to location shoot for my sessions! Evangeline took the photo of mama and papa! I am so proud of her skills! She says she wants to be a mommy & photographer when she grows up.
