A Day for Feds | Free headshots, makeup and more

February 19, 2025 Ginny Thomas

I’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response to the free headshots I offered last week, and it got me thinking—how can we do more? So, on March 14th, we’re turning our scheduled Headshot Marathon into a free event for impacted federal employees. Alongside Valerie Hammer and Locally Crafted, we’re offering headshots, makeup touch-ups, career services, legal and real estate guidance, crafting, and a supportive community—because sometimes, we just need to know we’re not alone. No cost, no appointment—just a space to feel seen, supported, and encouraged. If you or someone you know has been affected, join us. Let’s lift each other up. 💙

Annnnd that’s a wrap for 6th grade! This girl “slayed” her first year of Middle School & makes me so proud. 🥹 💕Bring on summer!! ☀️
Photographing kids under five? Let’s just say... you learn to expect the unexpected. 

Between snack breaks, wiggles, and full-on sprints mid-shot, it can feel a little chaotic — but also so full of fun, spontaneity, and real connection.
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there... especially the ones who grumble, “Do I really have to be in this photo?” …and then do it anyway. 🙃📸

You stand there, smile-ish, hold the kid, and pretend not to notice when w
June is here!  It’s a time of transition- it's busy, unstructured, and a little chaotic. But it’s also full of those real, meaningful moments that are worth capturing.

Lately, I’ve been especially loving:

We've made it!  We're down 1 tooth (and a lot of hair) but this guy is ready to say goodbye to pre-school and off to kindergarten next year! (Mommy may not be as ready...🥹) but we are all super proud!  Bring on summer! ☀

Happiest of Birthdays to my big bro!  So proud to be your sister.  You're an amazing dad and uncle and I love the childhood memories we share and the adult ones we're making with our own families.  Cheers to you! 🥃 💙

Sure, smiling-at-the-camera photos are great.
But when you tell your kid to “wear something silly and just have fun”? That’s when the good stuff shows up.

Personality Portraits are all about letting your kids be fully themselves: e
