Warm in-home photography session in Washington DC


I remember the feeling of joy I experienced after working on this family photography session in Vienna VA. The experience of meeting this beautiful family at their home and being witness to the tender moments they shared just helped me confirm the reasons why I love family photography.


When doing family photography at home, one of my favorite things is being inspired by your life and the moments that your family cherishes the most. Discovering those little corners at home that are truly special, that hold meaning, and where you can be yourself.


In this beautiful home, the warm light streaming through the windows created the perfect ambiance to showcase everyone’s unique personalities. The soft glow highlighted a natural connection. It wasn’t all about posing for the camera. We had moments to rest, laugh, and even step outside to enjoy the gorgeous weather. The balance of these peaceful breaks and playful moments allowed us to capture the joy and freedom that family life offers, making the whole experience feel relaxed and truly special.


As a Washington DC Family photographer, this session is also an important reminder that we don´t need the perfect season or wait for a perfect moment to plan a photography session. Just a normal day in the life can become something truly special.


My name is Rita Ambrosi and I am a Family Photographer in Washington DC.
