Becky A. Gardner Photography

Becky A. Gardner is a natural light photographer in Northern Virginia, specializing in family, newborn, and engagement photography with a little bit of whimsy and a whole lot of life.

why, hello! first of all, can i just say thank you so very much for stopping by my page! i am so excited about my photographic adventures, and this page is a showcase of my work, my life, sweet smiles, and special moments.

when i was a kid, i wanted to be a paleontologist. i graduated college with a degree in english literature, emphasis is poetry. flash forward to today, and i wear many different hats. but, most importantly, i am a wife to my very best friend and a momma to two of the most interesting tiny people i know. after a million army moves and for the past 5 years, my family has called northern virginia home. i am not so much a city girl, but i cannot sit still. so, my little family is constantly on the go, finding new places to explore with my camera in tow.

when i became a mom, i fell in love with photography, a hobby i traded for corporate jobs post-college. i am a natural light photographer, and i have a knack for capturing unique moments with a little bit of whimsy and a whole lot of life. specifically, i specialize in on-location newborn, family, and engagement sessions with a combination of both a traditional and lifestyle approach. i love to capture perfect smiles, but prefer everyday sentiment and quirks.

it’s no secret that the years go by so ridiculously fast. that’s where i come in. i’m here to help your family make these sweet memories last forever. i love that photos tell strong and profound stories about these fleeting moments, and i can’t wait to help you document yours! let’s chat!
