Congrats to Lillian who tossed her cap and officially graduated from American University back in December! While we took her images back in the fall, I figured it would be fun to share our sunrise session time to celebrate her accomplishments (and to mark the official beginning of grad booking season!). I was lucky enough […]

IT’S HERE… IT’S TIME!!! The CKP Graduation Portrait page is officially LIVE! I’ve been in love with graduation photography for years— it’s actually how my business started (more on that in a minute!), and for years, I’ve been fighting the urge to make it an official wing of my business. I’ve been photographing a few […]

I know peak grad season has come and gone, but it’s never too late to share a session as pretty as this one! A few months back, I got to meet these eleven (!!!) Loyola University Maryland Grads in Baltimore for their graduation photos, and Y’ALL… it was so good that I may or may […]

Just WAIT until you hear the story behind Pauline’s session! She graduated from GW in December of 2019, reaching out to me right around her official graduation to schedule a spring grad session. We all know what unfortunately hit in the spring of 2020, so we postponed. Pauline actually calls PA home, so it took […]

This sweet group of gals were the absolute best to work with— I can’t thank them enough for their flexibility OR willingness to get ready two days in a row! Leading up to their session, I was watching the weather like a hawk. I saw there was a slight chance of rain in the forecast, […]

I’m so proud of this dear friend of mine! I’ve known Kirsten (Or as I’ve called her for years, Kirst!) since we were both Penn State undergrads, me a senior, and her a sophomore…. and now, fast forward a few years, and she is both a Penn State Grad and a Villanova Law School Grad! […]

Oh my goodness… Mother Nature was certain that this session would never happen after multiple reschedules due to rain, but this crew was SO beyond flexible. For that, I’ll be forever grateful. Brianna is one of my sweet OTF friends, and when I say we spent MANY days after class in the studio, refreshing weather […]

A grad with sweetness to match her smarts, red bottoms, and one of the most iconic locations in the DMV?! Sign me up! Samantha was the final Lincoln grad session of my May grad season, and oh my goodness, I don’t think I could have picked a more perfect grad to wrap up an amazing […]

We’re continuing the recap of grad season with the sweet and gorgeous Hannah! She was just wrapping up her senior year when we met for these photos back in May! With a virtual graduation, she and her mom knew they wanted to do something special to celebrate. She’ll be leaving the DC area for school, […]

I’ve been SO excited to share Bri and her sweet Frenchie, Bentley, with y’all! I mean, their matching grad attire?! It couldn’t be any sweeter! Bri graduated from GW University with her Masters of Science in Sports Management this past May. She and her family were in town to celebrate, so we got together one […]
