Reduced Price Headshots for Federal Employees | Silver Spring, MD

February 14, 2025 Ginny Thomas

Supporting Federal Employees in Transition

Recently I had the opportunity to offer free headshots to federal employees (or anyone effected by the new administration) who have recently been let go and are facing an uncertain future. It was a small way to help, and I was truly moved by how much this resonated and brought hope.

While I can’t continue offering free sessions indefinitely, I do want to make professional headshots as accessible as possible for those in need. For the next few months, I’ll be offering discounted studio headshots for federal employees at $150 (regularly $375)—a way to keep this going while covering my costs.


Hair and Makeup

If you are interested in a short 35 minute hair/makeup before your session, Valerie Hammer Makeup Artistry is offering an $85 discounted session. Her studio is 2 minutes away and we could coordinate a date where you go straight from her studio to mine.


If this could help you or someone you know, please reach out. And if you’re in a position to help others, whether through resources, connections, or just encouragement, let’s continue finding ways to lift each other up.

Here is a link to others also working to uplift our community during this time.

If you’ve ever tried taking photos with an almost two-year-old, you know exactly how this goes 😅

This little one had big feelings about being photographed, and that’s completely okay. Instead of trying to get her to sit still or smile o
Studio minis are the perfect mix of cozy and festive; especially for little ones. Short sessions. Warm space. And all the snuggles and twinkle lights.

This little guy brought all the smiles and charm to his session.  The holidays are coming!! 🎄

Don’t be afraid to bring your kids’ favorite things to your session. Those well-loved toys, stuffed animals, or dolls say so much about who they are right now.

These little details make your photos personal and real. A favorite truck, a
So I don't formally do Halloween minis, but my Halloween-loving kids wanted to do Halloween PJs so we did a super quick studio setup and these are some of the gems. 
What do you think- Halloween PJ's are the new Christmas PJ's??? 

Come by if you wan
Fall minis were a hit this weekend! So many sweet families, big smiles, and all the best fall colors. The leaves showed up, the kids brought the energy, and we made it through the day with full hearts (and a full camera roll).

Mini Sessions are rolling this fall and I am so enjoying so many new and familiar families! 🍂 

So grateful I get to capture these sweet moments and enjoy all the fall colors, laughter, and chaos that come with them. 

Every session is a reminder of

I’ll be at Eaton House DC tomorrow, Tuesday, October 14th from 11–12 PM partnering with Former Gov during their weekly co-working event t
These Fort C.F. Smith minis were supposed to happen on a rainy weekend. The rain never showed, but the light we got on the new date was worth the wait.

Cool breeze, golden morning sun, and happy, playful kids. We got everything from holiday card sho
A gentle reminder…
