Cachet | Washington, DC Family Photographer

Happy Thursday!

Continuing on with yesterday’s family posts, I have two more colorful fall family sessions to share with you today :) 

Can I just take a moment and say that I am sooo incredibly happy we’ve had such a beautiful (and extended) fall season this year? It has been absolutely wonderful having such great weather for family photos, colorful leaves, beautiful light… I could not have asked for a better autumn season and I am so very thankful ♥

With that being said, let’s get on to the photos :) 

First up is Cachet and her beautiful family! If you follow me on instagram and/or facebook, then you’ve definitely seen a few of these photos- I couldn’t get enough of baby girl’s outfit- I LOVED her hat :) 

Check out their complete full mini session!

Pezzuti Family | Bowie, MD Family Photographer

Last post for today? The Pezzuti family! I got a late start today so I’ll finish up with sharing more recent family sessions tomorrow :)

I first worked with this lovely family back in 2010 for fall photos!

And now? 5 years later I couldn’t be happier to once again be entrusted with documenting this beautiful and growing family :)

We got together on a bright and sunny day and had a great mini session right in their backyard! I love taking photos in a family’s space because everyone is comfortable and this is especially great for younger kids. 

The Pezzuti family was no exception! Check out their fun family photos :)

Decker Family | Washington, DC Family Photographer

Next up today? Another beautiful fall mini session :) This time with the Decker Family!

Stephanie is actually one of my mentees! We worked together earlier this year and I was so happy when she reached back out and said she managed to convince her husband to finally take family pictures lol.

The day of their mini session came and the weather was perfect, the light was gorgeous, and I had such a great time capturing this sweet family ♥

DC 101 Group Session [October 23] | Washington, DC Photography Instructor

Happy Mentor Monday loves ♥

I hope your Monday is treating you well! And if not, hopefully the fact that this is a short work week cheers you up a bit :)

Today I am sharing the recap from my October group session here in DC- it was full of learning, laughs, and good light! Tina was such a fun and charismatic model for us and totally made our jobs easy :)

Check out the photo recap from our session!

Hear from the attendees themselves on their experiences!

“I finally made time and attended the class, all the way from Seattle! We met over breakfast on a Friday morning and casually started talking about photography. After just a couple of hours of chatting, I felt the fog lifting and many of the questions I had were easily demystified—very simply might add. This was just the beginning, we took a stroll down the street and scouted a few locations around the neighborhood. These locations would never have been a first choice for me before the class but after seeing what came from the shoot, I was sold.”
-Stephen

“It was a pleasure to have Danielle as a mentor. She is simply amazing, so sweet, and she loves photography. Her love for her craft definitely shows through in her teaching!”
-Erika

“I have to admit I was excited, but also I was very nervous. Most of what I know has been by trail and error and watching tutorials on youtube. So to be able to work with someone hands on was great. Danni’s explanation was simple and easy to understand, and what a bonus to be able to scout locations and work with a model and make up artist for a full experience! I am definitely more prepared, and I now know what I need gear wise to be able to produce the images I want for my clients.”
-Danna

“The overall experience with DFinney mentoring was amazing. From the time that I arrived, to the in person training, she kept us intrigued and motivated! The flow of the day went really well and she engaged with all of the mentees on a personal level. I am so glad that I finally took this class!”
-Arminta
