About · Tammy Nguyen

Let’s create beautiful memories together.

Tammy Nguyen has photographed families across Falls Church and the DMV for four years — babies in their first fortnight, mothers who never get to be in the picture, and families who finally got everyone in one place on the same afternoon.

In her own words

Hi there! I’m the proud owner of Tammy’s Photography, based right here in Falls Church, VA. With a passion for capturing life’s precious moments, I specialize in portrait, headshot, and event photography.

Whether you’re looking to celebrate an engagement or need a professional headshot, I’m here to make sure you look your best. As my own business, I give each client my full attention and care.

Achieving our clients’ vision is my top priority.

How a session runs

Every session starts with a planning call — where, when, who, and what you are worried about. Nobody is handed a shot list and left to perform. You are directed the whole way through, shown the back of the camera early so you stop bracing, and given room to stop being self-conscious about halfway in, which is where most of the good frames come from.

Finished galleries arrive within two weeks, print-ready, in a private online gallery you can share with family.

Where she works

Falls Church, Arlington, McLean, Vienna, Annandale, Alexandria and Fairfax, plus Washington DC and nearby Maryland. Seasonal locations across Northern Virginia — spring blossom, the late-summer sunflower fields, autumn colour in the parkland. Travel beyond about 30 minutes from Falls Church may carry a small fee, always quoted before you commit.

Beyond family portraiture

The folio also holds editorial, conceptual and equestrian work. That work is not a separate business — it is where the technique comes from, and it stays available by request for anyone who wants a portrait built that way. Headshots, engagements and events are also photographed on request.
