Studio Portraits – Northern VA Senior Photography | Sindy
Another amazing senior, Sindy. So happy she chose me to be her Senior Photographer. As you can tell, she is into archery. I LOVE the picture above, it is so fierce, so intense.

Review: Trello Organizational App
Okay so last week I told you about my favorite paper planner, this week I am going to review Trello, one of my favorite apps.

There are just three simple…
Destination Senior Pictures – Northern VA Claude Moore Park
As a full-service photographer offering Northern VA senior pictures, I do offer studio portraits to my clients.

But some people belong outside. Their portraits…

Destination Senior Pictures – Lansdowne Waterfall
Northern Virginia has so many beautiful locations for high school senior photographers! The Lansdowne waterfall was one of my early discoveries, and has been so popular for senior portraits. It’s a very small space, but it packs a variety of different looks in one location. If you don’t like to do a lot of walking, and you want a more…
