I honestly don’t think I have enough good things to say about Miss Vanessa of Vanessa Smith Photography. She was one of my very first friends here in DC and has continued to cheer me on each and every day. We met for the very first time over margaritas and salsa, as fellow Texans should and shared so many laughs and struggles about running a business. She is the mama to a sweet baby girl and is an amazing boss lady. Her use of light in her photography is absolutely stunning, and she is guaranteed to make you feel (and look!) like a million and one bucks when you are on the front end of of her camera. We met on the first cold morning of the year for a headshot swap. We had so much fun running around Georgetown, even though neither of us could feel our toes by the time we got back to our cars!

I am so incredibly thankful for this sweet soul’s constant love and support.
