I have been providing the highest quality imagery and products as a school photographer in Northern Virginia since 2016, working with kids of all ages from infants through high school.
Minimal Classroom Interruptions
I know that instructional time is valuable, and I make every effort to minimize disruptions to the school day. Before picture day, I'll provide a detailed schedule so teachers can plan. My streamlined approach ensures that students are photographed efficiently and return to class as quickly as possible. Say goodbye to long lines!
Privacy
As a fellow Northern Virginia parent and professional school photographer, I take privacy and security seriously. My online galleries are password-protected down to the individual student level, ensuring that only authorized users can view specific photos.
What clients are saying
When I heard a non-traditional school photographer was going to be used, I was skeptical at first. Many of us have endured school photos (as if they were a rite of passage). Often staged with (cheesy) props, titling your head to unnatural angles and poses. When I saw the results of my daughter's photograph I was very impressed and the skepticism faded fast. The photograph reflected back something special about the child, her character and uniqueness came through.
