Baby Girl "V" is 6 months old already!

I just did another member of my baby club's 6 month old pictures this week. She is more adorable every time I see her and is now on the move! This age can be tricky because they are so interested in everything but you! The grass, the plants, their feet!
Enjoy!








I love this one...

Baby Girl "G" has finally arrived!

If you follow my blog I'm sure you remember the lovely mama from my maternity shoot about a month ago. I'll refresh your memory...



Well, they were waiting to find out whether it was a girl or a boy. I guessed a boy. I was wrong! She's all girl and here she is! All almost 9 lbs of her!


Isn't she beautiful! Look at all of that hair! Most of my newborn clients tend to have a lot of hair, it's funny...



Dad's over the moon already! She's already got him wrapped around that tiny finger...






This is one lucky girl! She's got a Coach diaper bag already thanks to her awesome aunt! I'm jealous....

Fun in Old Town...

This weekend I had the opportunity to get back into shooting in Old Town Alexandria! It's practically in my backyard and my favorite place to shoot but with weddings and so many babies lately it's been quite awhile since I've been down there so it was fun to shoot there this weekend. It was even better because I had a gorgeous family to work with! And the morning and evening weather here has been beautiful lately and truly gave us the feeling that fall is not too far off! So, we enjoyed being outside in the cooler weather and sunshine. And once the kids did get a little sick of having a camera in their face we were able to liven things up with some worms! There just aren't many things more exciting than that! Ya just gotta love the simple joys of childhood!
Enjoy



Isn't she gorgeous! Watch out Dad! The boys are gonna be knocking down your door! :-)


These two were so sweet together and got along so well...






Mr. GQ...



Alas, the worms...

Fall sessions...

Fall is coming more quickly than we all realize! And, although I love summer (the pool, vacation, flip flops, no jackets) I absolutely LOVE the first cooler days of fall along with the beautiful DC trees! In DC I see reds, yellows and fire orange like I've never seen them before! We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful area!
This also means busy season for me! Fall sessions book up fast and are limited! I've already had several pick their dates so if you're interested in having fall portraits taking book early! There have been some rate and pricing changes since last fall so check out my website under Info and then rates to see the updated information. Also feel free to email me for any info that you may need! I look forward to seeing some old faces and meeting some new ones! Just to wet your appetite for fall, here are a few of my favorites from last year!
Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Happy 3rd birthday!

A good friend of my daughter's turned 3 last week! We had a fun birthday celebration at Fort Hunt Park. They are all getting so big so quickly! Here are few pictures from that day!

Happy Anniversary!

Last weekend I had the privilege of photographing this sweet couple and their family in celebration of their 35th wedding anniversary at the amazing Gaylord Hotel at National Harbor. (If you haven't been over to National Harbor yet you should definitely go! If nothing else, to see the Gaylord Hotel!) They just wanted a few shots before their party began so I spent about half an hour with them. Both had children from a previous marriage so they created their own little Brady Bunch! (I'm sure I'm about the millionth person to say that). They were such a lovely couple with a beautiful family! The kids looked like their own little Gap ad!
Thank you for allowing me to help you document this wonderful occasion! Congratulations and may you be blessed by 30 more years together!

The whole family...

The beautiful couple...

Still obviously in love!

All the grandkids...
