My promise to your family

A man playing with two young children on a sandy beach, happily hugging and laughing.

I’m a father of two little girls, which means I understand the beautiful chaos that comes with photographing children.

I know that asking little ones to sit still and smile isn’t realistic—and it’s never been the goal.

Children being children is where the magic lives. The giggles, the playfulness, the way they move through the world so freely—those moments exist only for a brief season, and then they’re gone.

You don’t need to worry about perfect poses. I’m more than ready to run, play, tumble, and laugh alongside your kids. I have the energy—and the heart—for it.

As a father, I see these fleeting moments every day with my own children. I understand which memories truly matter, and I photograph your family with that same care—preserving the moments you’ll want to remember, just as they are.

Our Collections

Maternity & Newborn

Our maternity and newborn sessions are rooted in love—the quiet force that builds a family. From the anticipation before they arrive to the overwhelming tenderness of holding them for the first time, we document this season as it naturally unfolds—focused on presence, connection, and the bond you share. These moments are not staged or perfected. They are simply held, just as they are, and preserved as the beginning of your family’s story.

  • I cannot recommend Lavish photography enough! I had booked a dohl studio session for my youngest. Even though my kids were not very cooperative (youngest was crying a lot and the oldest couldn’t stay still), Dave was so patient and kind the entire time. The end result was amazing, and the photos came out beautifully. He really captured the precious moments amidst the chaos of a baby and a toddler in the session!

  • I had my maternity photoshoot with Lavish Photography and the results were amazing! Communication was great throughout the whole process, and he guided me and my husband through different poses so we could look our best. He also used all the props we brought in such a beautiful and creative way, which made the photos even more special. We’re so happy with the photos and would definitely come back again for another session when we visit DC!

    -Anna Park

  • Loved his energy and professionalism. He shared the album earlier than expected and the photos + edits are beautiful. He was great with my one year old and four year old! I cannot recommend him enough.
