Your Go-to Woman For Soulful, One-of-a Kind Shots
I'm Natalie!
I'm Natalie! A Washington DC based wedding and portrait photographer. What sets me apart is the way I connect with every person in the room, whether it's your wedding day full of adventure or a portrait session capturing your truest self. My favorite thing ever is meeting people in those first few moments—exchanging smiles and easy conversation—and by the end, sharing hugs, gratitude, and seeing sparkles in their eyes. That connection is everything to me.
Every photography session I approach is intentional, capturing not just the stunning highlights but also the intimate, soulful moments that show how it felt to be there, surrounded by love.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been undeniably captivated by weddings— the choice to pause life to gather with your closest people, celebrating the merging of lives and the journey ahead. There’s something so deeply sacred about it.
As a hopeless romantic and avid traveler, my heart has led me to beautiful, unexpected places—venues, cities, and intimate spaces—where I’ve been invited to witness life-changing moments. Along the way, I’ve learned it’s not just the place but the connections within those spaces that make it
extraordinary.
From planning weddings in Washington DC for years, to capturing them as a photographer, my work is an extension of what I love most: the magic that happens when people come together. I create photographs that aren’t just keepsakes but living proof of every bond, every laugh, and every tear of joy, preserving the spark of your story for years to come.
I believe in following your own path
Home is where the heart is—whether that’s surrounded by all your loved ones on the dance floor or tucked away in an intimate corner of the world that feels entirely yours.
Your photos don’t have to look like everybody else's. Express your personalities, quirks and sentimentality by making choices that reflect who YOU are. Listen to what your heart is telling you and follow where it leads!
Make a great plan beforehand and then let go and trust. Embrace the unexpected, lean into spontaneity, and let each moment unfold naturally. That’s where the magic happens!
Your wedding day can feel like a blip in time if you let it. Building time into your day for calm presence is essential.
Prioritize what’s important to you, skip what isn’t.
Your wedding day is not a production. You should be able to free to flow throughout your day not concerned about how things look, but how they feel.
When you look back at your photos, I want you to be so blissfully happy by all the photos you didn’t realize were being taken. Trust that the experts have got your back!
✧ Hosting house parties is my love language.
You can call me the hostess with the mostest—with me there will always be music playing, drinks flowing, and a space for deep convos.
✧ The kitchen is my happy place!
Fueled by matcha and powered by garlic, I'm truly the happiest with herbs in hand and something simmering on the stove.
✧ Western roots, East Coast energy.
I’m originally from Boise, Idaho and no matter how far I travel, that big-sky, mountain-town magic never leaves me.
✧ I’m the designated photographer friend.
My camera roll is packed with the people I love, places I’ve wandered, and the in-between moments that matter most. Chances are, I’ve got a photo of you laughing when you didn’t think anyone was looking.
✧ Small towns > big cities.
Especially if they have a good bakery, some solid thrifting, and a natural landscape. Favorites: Charlottesville, Sedona, Whistler, and Joshua Tree.
✧ I geek out over astrology and personality tests.
Aquarius sun, ENFJ, Enneagram 7. If you’re into it, I’ll read your birth chart over matcha and spiral into a conversation about what the stars have to say about you ⋆.˚ ☾⭒.˚
✧ Currently manifesting:
10 more National Parks before I turn 30.
Want to help me pick the next stop? And yes, I’ll bring my camera.
✧ My dream life includes:
A vintage record collection, stacks of polaroids, and Sunday dinners with my favorite people.
