Welcome to the Blog

I'm Erica a D.C. wedding photographer, with two young children, and a love for organization. Welcome to my small space on the internet where I can share with you special sessions, real weddings, and even little looks into my everyday life. Take a look around, and thanks for stopping by!

The Wynn family is back for another year of family mini sessions. This is my second year getting to photograph handsome Jack and his parents as he grows. I love getting the chance to watch so many littles grow up year after year through these mini sessions.
