You’re not going to believe this but this session was probably our easiest DC engagement session to date! We had glow, no crowed, a beautiful setting and the most wonderful couple!
Kevin and Emily met us at Constitutional Gardens last week and I was expecting crowds because the weather was amazing. We were anticipating super hot weather and high humidity but it was so pleasant! Everywhere we went, I just kept saying, “guys, how is this so perfect?!” and I meant it! Normally DC sessions have some element of stress but everything for Kevin and Emily’s shoot worked out so well! Even our parking spot was amazing!
We met them at the gardens and found beautiful settings, foregrounds and glowy light which is all I could ask for in a location! Then we headed over to Georgetown where we captured some more images where Kevin asked Emily to marry him! We loved getting to know these two and hear more about their life, their work, their families and their wedding plans! We left our time together and Michael and I both commented on how sweet our time together was! I’m thrilled to share some of my FAVORITES from their session!!

In today’s world, the idea of a “healthy home” can feel overwhelming. With constant information about toxins, processed foods, and environmental risks, it’s easy to feel defeated before you even start. So I’m sharing our journey and the small, impactful steps we’ve taken towards a healthier home.
Wedding days can be incredibly stressful for everyone involved. Photographers, brides, grooms, and guests alike often find themselves overwhelmed by the schedule and the numerous details that need attention. However, there are key “in-between” moments throughout the day that can be leveraged to create a smoother experience and better outcomes. As the photographer, you can calm the nerves of everyone there and capture their day beautifully!
This week, Michael is sitting down with me at the microphone to join me on the podcast! When we started our Acton Academy journey, we had big dreams and very little idea of the practical challenges that lay ahead. Today, in year three of running our own Acton Academy, Michael and I are thrilled to reflect on the incredible transformation we’ve seen in our learners, our community, and even our own perspectives on education.
Photography is an art that thrives on creativity and technique. If you don’t have the basics of lighting and posing down, this tip won’t work- but if you’re looking to elevate your style, this is for you!!
