washington dc

it had been about a month since i had been on an airplane so i figured why not go to washington dc for the weekend to visit the lovely jilli and jane. it was a short trip but such a perfect weekend. we saw the sights, laid out on the grass at the mall, went to the smithsonian (i was in heaven with all the french impressionism), ate a lot and spent time with jane's family. it was her grandma's eightieth birthday, so we threw her a little birthday dinner. its safe to say that i'm obsessed with her grandparents.

the anderton family!

i take every chance i get to shoot the beautiful miss danielle anderton [winter or summer, take your pick]. so when she called me asking if i would take her family pictures i jumped at the opportunity. not only were they a breeze to shoot, they are possibly the sweetest people ever and a total blast to work with!

merry chirstmas mamma meloy!

i recently had the awesome chance to work with kierea and tanner meloy on some sibling pictures for their mama. kierea was my roommate last year, and i love the girl to death! needless to say i was super excited to take these pictures and am really happy with the way they turned out. this was my first experience with siblings and i was quite lucky to have them to work with. they were wonderful and were willing to try anything i asked [sit in the snow, please?], even in the bitter 8 degree weather!!
