Washington DC Family Photography

It’s that time of year when everyone starts thinking about holiday cards and photos. I thought I would share a few photos from some family sessions I have done over the past few months. Get ready for some cute kids. The first family is my dear friends the Yost family, founders of the New Rhythm Project. I took photos of their sweet little girl at 4 months and at 7 …

24 Hours in Tokyo

Dave and I had a 24 hour layover in Tokyo during our flight back from Thailand in July. I always love getting the extra bonus of a layover in another country and take the opportunity to extend the layover if I can! Unfortunately I came down with a terrible cold during our last few days in Bangkok and this flu hit its climax during our time in Tokyo. We were …

Home in Khon Kaen

Dave and I are back in DC after a week away and trying to settle back into Monday morning routines. Dave spent the last week in Guyana filming a medical mission and I was in New Jersey and South Carolina visiting friends and family. (I need to get to Nashville next Kelli!) Do you remember our post last week about running around in rice paddies? Well, after popping in on …

Rice Paddies

As we’ve talked about before, Dave and I spent some time in Thailand this past summer filming for a short film we are making about Breakthrough Thailand. One day while we were spending time with Cori, Jub, and the girls in a rural village, they took us to meet their neighbors who were harvesting rice. Their neighbors were incredibly kind and let Dave and I run around in their rice …

Making Sandwiches: Food Photography

A few weeks ago I shared some photos from a shoot I did with my dear friend Danielle. We took food photographs in preparation for a fabulous blog that she is starting. This is the second half of that shoot which involved making us sandwiches. Mmm. Shooting these sandwiches was kind of torture because if you know me, you know how ‘hangry’ I get when I haven’t eaten in a …

Taling Chan Floating Market: Bangkok, Thailand

Dave and I had an incredible time in Thailand this summer. We absolutely loved the country, the people, and the food, and we have decided that we need to take another trip to see southern Thailand. One of the things on my list to see in Thailand was a floating market. After doing some research on floating markets, it seemed that the famous market I was picturing from the old …

Cherry Blossom Engagement

This past spring I met up with Chelsea and Hunter by the National Mall for a sunrise engagement shoot with the famous DC cherry blossoms. It was the first day of peak bloom, so don’t let these photos fool you, it was insanely crowded around the cherry trees. We got creative with positioning and framing in order to take photos without tourists and landscape photographers in every shot, and we …
