The magic of baby birthday aesthetics has truly taken flight these past few years and my heart melts as I capture these tiny, beautiful details that make each celebration special. I wish I had the time and space to do more of these precious celebrations and maybe … JUST maybe I will!

Also, it was such a treat to work with my very own wedding planner and decorator! If you’re looking for a girl team with the best kind of personalities and connections for any of your events, you really should give them a dm!

Have you ever listened to a song that transported you to a land of a million feelings? You know the ones that make you feel so many things at once: a happy sadness, a quiet excitement, dreamy inspirations and an urgency to listen to the song again and again and again….😂😅

As a videographer and editor, it’s the songs that make everythinggggg and my obsession to find the perfect ones for each of our clients can easily be one of the longest processes of the edit. But also, as I look back at some of my shoots that i never posted(like this lovely one!), songs from that summer season come back to me and so do those good ol vibes.

Currently listening to this song posted here on repeat, not sure why quite just yet, but if you’re a feeler like me, IYKYK 🫶

Also, we have been getting soooo many emails and dms and as we continue to balance work and leisure, it is taking us some time to get through responding. If it helps, we are no longer booking anything for 2024! DM for any quick questions and I’ll try my best to reply!! 🥹🥹

A little spring photo journal from a fun little trip to DC with our fams and friends 🌿 We DMVers usually don’t dare to venture into the city during peak bloom, so it was a pleasant surprise to see just how manageable it was. I don’t know if it’s because we went on a Wednesday at 2pm…or if we just got really lucky… but whatever caused such good fortune, I am so glad we were able to take a day to take photos for fun and see all the pretty flowers together!

Last pic: shout out to all the spouses/SO of photographers who end up unintentionally becoming professional photographers themselves. With all the “how about this time…can you just…”x10 😂😅

I❤️NY 🫶 Had an amazing engagement session in and around Central Park as I got to shoot at some of the most iconic spots 🥹 Although, I am more about capturing the beauty of the people over the scenery, the change of view was still a sweeeet experience. Thankful I get to be the photographer of this beautiful couple and now I am so excited for the wedding next year!

Currently on a train to NY for my last non wedding photoshoot of the year, and I cannot believe that it’s already the last day of November! With this tiny bit of time on my hands I thought I’d showcase just a few from some amazing photoshoots from the past couple months!

Apologies for any delays of communication. This is actually the busiest time of the year as we photographers get through all our wedding photos and videos and I am happily and stressfully in the zone ✊🏼😬🫠🥰

Happy Winter Days!!! ❄️

Loved this year’s fall themed florals for our mini session event! Thank you to all that participated and yes - I hope to do something like this again in the future! Make sure you sign up for our newsletter to get the announcement for 2024!

Also, I’ve storied this before but just in case you missed it, I’ve got my work cut out for me the rest of the year so I’m no longer taking any inquiries until spring of 2024. Until then - enjoy my belated posts and grab some inspo for your own photoshoots whether it’s with me or another fabulous photographer🥰❤️😘

Although most ideally want sun and shine on their wedding day, there is still something so romantic and magical about capturing photos through the rain and mist ☔️ 🪄 . Looking back at these sneaks from Saturday, I love how the lighting and the weather accentuated just how classic, elegant and beautiful Catherine and David were on their wedding day! Feeling grateful again to be a part of some of the sweetest moments of peoples lives - through the rain, shine, heat, cold, and whatever else comes our way! 😘

Shoutout to the awesome vendors that helped make their day possible!

Beautiful Sophia and her bridal shoot❤️

Composition and posing in a way that makes each individual session look effortless is an art form of itself that I’ve been really enjoying. I also absolutely love these quiet moments leading to the ceremony. 😌

I am a sucker for chasing beautiful moments but I’m also a sucker for beautiful posed sessions!

Thanks to my hero, friend and my own wedding hair and make up queen, for doing this bride’s hair and make up!

The Bridal Portraits ✨

With the bride’s blessing to experiment with poses and angles, I took advantage of our time together and snapped some of the most artistic photos of my dreams!

This post is not even close to how many I love, so I may have to story a bunch!

Europe photo dump! ✈️ 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 🇮🇹

Finally on my way home from this 10 day journey through the breathtaking Mediterranean shores! 🌊 Taking photos for myself and of myself is not a common occurrence, but I definitely had a blast being behind and in front of the camera out of pure fun for a change! Im in love with these places and have already asked my husband to figure out the ginseng coffee recipe to enjoy at home ☕️😛 Speaking of him, shout out to my life partner as being married to a photographer is not an easy thing! 4 years of “not this angle…don’t forget to include…I don’t like it…step further back…etc” and he has finally arrived. 😂 poor guy became an excellent photographer without intending to 😂😅

Anyways, after walking about 5+ miles a day, home sounds really good about now and just in time for our back to back weddings this weekend! Feeling so good and ready to get back into the grind 🤙 PAYCE✌️

Simone + Lionel’s DC engagement☀️🌇

Brilliant greens and florals have once again blossomed in our DMV area, and it has been so much fun taking photos in the warm weather and capturing so many perfect moments between lovers, friends and family!

It’s the best when clients are naturals in front of the camera and these 2 showcased here, were just that - naturals! I love the vibe of love, and once again, what a treat to be the one behind the camera! 📸

This year’s spring mini event was everything I hoped for and more! I wish I could share every single photo from every family that participated 🥹😍 Thank you to those that came out and let me take your fabulous photos - all of you were incredible! I was telling Grace the other day of how I am always pleasantly surprised with turn outs and this one was no exception🥲

Huge shoutout to for bringing my spring inspiration to life - you are a magician 🪄 and mind reader! I cannot wait to do another one of these in the fall!

Finally getting some time to post some of my family photoshoots and first are these little gems and rubies from ‘s shoot a couple months ago 🥰

Spring is around the corner and so is a very full schedule of shoots😆 I’ve been taking a lot more photos lately and it’s been quite a nice change ☺️ As I find my style through experimenting with different compositions, lighting, poses and edits, I have been so blessed by clients that really let me have so much creative liberty.

It’s because of the trust they put in me that sets me up to blossom in my art and as many of you already know, it’s the people that make all the difference in your life experiences. Basically, y’all are the biggest reason why I continue to love and pursue what I do - 🫶Davina

Spring is around the corner and as the DMV has been experiencing record early blooms, I just had to take advantage of the Magnolias blooming in DC last weekend!

Super thankful for this amazing couple that has shared their Saturday morning with me and so excited for our second shoot and then their wedding!

I’ll be highlighting another announcement soon, but for those that made it to the end of this blurb, I will be hosting a mini spring shoot on April 8 in Fairfax and Centreville! We’re planning a spring floral spread so it’s going to be suhweeeet!!

With those feelings of anticipation officially behind them, Laura and Jonathan walked out of their ceremony and into the most golden time of their day - literally 😉.

Presenting the gallery of some of my proudest pieces of art, with Jae and Elaine here as my muse - congrats again 🥰

There’s a lot of trust you put in a wedding photographer/videographer. Besides likability and professionalism, you’re trusting their eye for the art. How they see you, what they believe is worthy of a shot, how much light or shadow they prefer, how much saturation they like in an image… is what makes us all unique in this kind of work we do.

Everyone has a style, and so for something big like a wedding, it’s crucial for couples to do their due diligence when choosing a photographer and/or videographer. Make sure you like them, yes. But also make sure that the work they produce is along the lines of what you consider beautiful as well. It is totally worth the research!

Bridal photo art 📸

As I’ve quietly spent all of 2022 obsessed with finding the perfect composition while also searching for different ways to showcase the beauty of the bride through photos, the journey has been incredibly fun and rewarding!

A real wedding shot back in the fall, all of this couple’s details, moments together and portraits(I mean just look at her!😍) were dreams come true! A huge thank you to this couple for literally being the best models and obliging to everything I asked them to do(and not do😂)😘
