This is me: Blaire Elizabeth.

I’m a mom, wife, friend, and photographer in Northern Virginia.

I grew up on Long Island, NY, just around the corner from 2nd Ave - the street where my grandpa lived. He was the OG family photographer, with a dark-room in his basement who taught me to shoot and develop film. That's where it all began: the spark that ignited my love for all things photography and where the name Second Ave Photography comes from.

So, fast-forward to today. Working with young children is my jam! They're like walking muses for me. They can sense my genuine enthusiasm and I believe that makes all the difference. Bring me all your babies and toddlers and preschoolers - we're going to make some magic.

All of my photo sessions are a bespoke experience tailored to the unique family I am photographing. My dynamic nature allows me to effortlessly switch between heartwarming portraits and vibrant candids.

Family photography is an investment you'll never regret. So, if you're searching for a photographer who can work some serious magic with kids, strives to achieve the perfect blend of creativity and authenticity, hand-edits every image with thoughtful attention-to-detail, knows their way around both the old-school and modern photography worlds, and offers a curated collection of premier products as well as digital files, then we just may be the perfect fit!
