Washington, DC based photographer
with a heart for visual story telling.
Hi, I’m Meghan Kehoe - the proud photographer over here at Meghan Francis Creative! I am a Washington, DC native with an enthusiasm for people and their uniqueness, a visual storyteller with an appreciation for detail, and a self-proclaimed stovetop popcorn connoisseur. I am a firm believer in daily gratitude and a lover of all things colorful. I thrive on personal interaction and the ability to foster lasting relationships. A people-person through and through, connecting with others to create something meaningful is the very heart of my photography. I find joy in sharing my clients’ stories – stories of love, friendship, community, creation, and design.
Invite me in to share your story;
I’d love to work with you!
Born and raised in the Washington, DC area, I attended Georgetown Visitation for high school and the University of South Carolina’s school of Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism for undergrad. I've always loved the dynamic buzz and excitement of hospitality so working in the Events & Catering industry for several years was a natural fit. After pursuing a degree from the Washington School of Photography in 2015, I established Meghan Francis Creative and began growing my photography business - gearing myself towards both portrait and corporate work, specifically within the restaurant and hospitality industries.
I am thankful everyday for my career in photography, an amazing network of clients, and the daily opportunity to work creatively.
"People say that a picture is worth a thousand words. With Meghan, hers are easily worth a million. Over the past two years I've worked with her, she has provided our restaurant and event group with the most stunning portfolio of photography we've ever had. She makes sure our delicious food looks fantastic and our events exciting and impeccable. With social media platforms like Instagram, Meghan's work couldn't be easier and more effective as we tell our story through imagery. If you're looking for a photographer that will give your business a polished, crisp image to stand out both online and in print, Meghan is your best bet.

"Choosing a photographer to work with can be challenging - not because of a lack of talented professionals to choose from, but because you want to be sure you will feel comfortable, as being in front of a camera is a vulnerable feeling! But with Meghan, we always feel at ease.
She is incredibly kind, friendly and fun - and extremely talented!
We have worked with Meghan multiple times and her photos always exceed our expectations. She takes the time to understand our vision for the shoot and works tirelessly to ensure she captures the perfect photos that bring that vision to life"
- Molly & Katie, @thedcdarlings
"Being an interior designer and having worked with many photographers, I can truly say Meghan has and knows what it takes to shoot an interior worth publishing. While she explores perspective and pays attention to detail, she’s also receptive and creative with what the designer wants out of a photograph. Meghan’s professionalism, fun-loving personality, and final product make her a pleasure to collaborate with each and every time. Thanks again, Meghan!"
- Kate, Owner/designer at McCullough Design.
"My family had the pleasure of working with Meghan to commentate the birth of our son and the evolution of our family from two to three.
We hoped for a casual and fun morning in our neighborhood and favorite park. Meghan impressed us from the start by preparing for the shoot by scouting the area we suggested as the backdrop. She provided helpful feedback throughout our time together to capture the most flattering shots.
Meghan’s enthusiasm for photography was palpable and resulted in cherished family photos.
We look forward to working with her again soon! "
- Amy.
"We feel so fortunate to have used Meghan for our recent family photos.
Even with a lovely (but fussy!) 6 month old and some tired parents, we received incredibly beautiful photos that we will cherish for years. Meghan is the consummate professional, and our photo shoot was fun, easy, and extremely worthwhile. Her knowledge of light and location was impeccable, and we explored parts of the city that we hadn't been to before - A true "win-win" for our family!
We would recommend her to all of our family and friends."
- Marisa & Pat.
"Working with Meghan was awesome!
She was very responsive and got a sense of our vision for the photo shoot before we got there. During the shoot, she was very clear with directions while still being fun and nice. As a result, our pictures came out great, and my fiance and I look comfortable and natural! We were lucky enough to book her during Cherry Blossom season, and she had such creative ways to capture us in the blossoms. Additionally, she did an amazing job with our camera-shy puppy!
I would highly recommend Meghan - she's truly a joy to work with!"
- Liz & Alex.
"Meghan took our maternity pictures in Georgetown and we couldn't be happier with them!
Meghan did a wonderful job at making us feel totally comfortable. We have gotten a TON of compliments on how beautiful pictures are.
Meghan listened to our vision and was able to bring it to life, effortlessly.
Not only is she an amazing photographer, she's a BLAST to hang with.
anyone would be lucky to work with her!"
- Kelly & Albert.
"We had Meghan take newborn photos of our baby Eliza and some family photos of us all together. We had such a wonderful experience! Meghan was patient and professional as we had to take time to feed and change Eliza between photos. The pictures turned out so beautiful.
She does such a great job with the lighting and and was creative with taking shots that we will definitely frame. We will be using Meghan again for our family pictures!"
- Sarah R.
"Meghan came highly recommended to us for the newborn photoshoot of our second child. She is warm, polite, and our older child took to her instantly. We chose her because of the simple yet beautiful feel of the photographs she took. The photos of our baby are works of art and we love them.
If you want a collection that is classic and timeless, then I would recommend Meghan!"
- Neyha.
"I reached out to Meghan to take some family portraits for a Christmas card. What I got went beyond what I had asked for. She spent the day with us in the Fall in Rock Creek Park taking photos of my family. She was able to keep my 3 and 4 yr olds entertained while taking posed family shots as well as candid shots. There wasn't one bad picture in the bunch. Not only that but all of the photos from a 4 hour session were back to us within days. She managed to capture the essence of my young family in such a way that it brought tears to my eyes. I will trust her phenomenal photography skills at any time in the future as my young family grows. Her vision is impeccable and the fact I was able to see the beauty of her work within a few days was fantastic. Thank you, Meghan, your skills and professionalism were much more than I could have asked for."
- Kerry & Matt.
