Lona Saccomando Photography

Hello, I'm Lona Saccomando, but some people call me "Tink." I earned that call-sign during my time in the Navy, where I traded the excitement of flying jets for the thrills of family life and desk jobs. I wouldn't change a thing!

My love for photography took on new depth when we nearly lost all the images of our first child's birth due to a hard-drive failure. That experience taught me the real value of photographs, and I realized the power of capturing those fleeting, everyday moments that truly matter. If this resonates with you, I would be delighted to speak with you about my custom photography services. I am based in Clifton, Virginia, and serve the Northern Virginia, Southern Maryland, and Washington, D.C. areas.

Our Photography Style

At Lona Saccomando Photography, we specialize in family documentary and lifestyle photography. We believe that the authenticity of real-life moments holds more significance than posed perfection. Our approach is story-driven and moment-based, allowing us to capture the essence of your family's unique bonds and the genuine emotions underlying your shared experiences.

The Power of Authenticity

In a world filled with carefully curated social media and photoshopped images, we strive to create a space where families can feel confident in their own stories and embrace their imperfections. Our photography aims to capture the raw beauty of your family life, encouraging you to see the value in your authentic moments.

As a mother, I understand the pressures of living up to the standards of perfection that we encounter daily. I want you to know that you're doing a fantastic job and that there is no such thing as a 'perfect' family. Instead, our focus should be on cherishing those real, authentic moments that make up our lives.

What We Offer

Our services include professional family photography, catering to northern Virginia (Fairfax, Arlington, Alexandria, Manassas, Reston, Herndon, and Springfield areas), southern Maryland (Charles, St. Mary's, and Calvert counties), Washington, D.C., and surrounding areas. We provide custom photography sessions tailored to your family's unique needs, capturing the special moments that define your bond and make your family who you are.

We believe that the beauty of a family portrait lies in its authenticity, rather than a forced, posed image. When you work with us, you can trust that your family's genuine love and laughter will shine through in every picture.

If you prefer genuine moments over posed perfection, you've found the right photographer. We would be thrilled to answer any questions you might have or help you book your session. Let's connect and start creating your family's treasured memories today!
