Hello

My name is Lona Saccomando. Some folks call me "Tink"....Tink was my call-sign when I was in the Navy playing Goose (Top Gun anyone?)...I got out of the Navy nearly ten years ago, replacing the thrill of flying in pointy-nosed jets with the excitement of meeting-filled desk-jobs and starting a family.

....and I wouldn't change a thing!

​

While I've always loved photography, I came to truly understand the power of a photograph when we nearly lost all of our images of our first child’s birth because of a hard-drive failure (luckily, we were able to recover a handful - whew!).

​

People ask why I love family documentary photography. I guess I’m drawn to family documentary and lifestyle photography because of its story-telling, moment-based approach. I believe the seemingly mundane, day-to-day, real-life moments are what really matter in the end.

​If this kind of family photography speaks to you, contact me to speak about my custom photography services. I am based in Clifton, Virginia, and serve the Northern Virginia, Southern Maryland, and Washington, D.C., areas.
