Happy One Year Birthday Sweet T!

admin — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 02:54:08 +0000

I photographed this little doll when she was just a week old, and I just can’t believe she has just celebrated her one-year birthday! I know from my own experience with my little guy how quickly the first year flies! Little T just keeps getting cuter and cuter. Must be why my little John Patrick keep making flirty eyes at her, and tries to hug and kiss her incessantly. I don’t blame him!

G and A Engagment Session

There is nothing like an engagement session to remind you of those feelings of excitement and anticipation of a life spent well together when we initiate our marriages. G and A so clearly adore each other, and take joy in the other’s presence. It was rejuvenating to spend time with them at Dumbarton oaks a few weeks back. Yes, I am behind on my blogging. Family has taken reign this year with the birth of John Patrick, and I am longing for summer break from my full-time job so I can dedicate even more time to my photography passion!

Thank you two for spending one of your last afternoons together with me! I know the long-distance engagement is hard! I can’t wait to photograph your wedding this summer!

Warning-there are a lot of them kissing. I encouraged, and they willing followed Not a bad way to spend an afternoon with the one you love. If you know of someone recently engaged, spend them my way for a fun way to celebrate their engagement!

C Family Session!

It had been a while since I had done a shoot with a toddler. I forgot how much running it involves on my part, and inevitably, lots of shots from behind of the little one running. Ah, the independence walking gives! Little R was relishing in her independence, and of course, she just looked adorable. I feel so thrilled to have been able to do a portrait session for the C Family again! I just love repeat clients, since I get to see how the kids grow and change over the year. Thank you all for such a fun night up in the Kentlands!

Aren’t these girls just gorgeous? I could have done an entire shoot just of them! Awesome personalities too! As a high school teacher, I can very easily tell when a kid is just an all around great person. These two fit the bill for sure.

These beautiful twins were up visiting from West Virginia. They live on a cattle ranch! I just think that is so cool. I adore these cowgirl boots- wish I had a pair!

I just love this shot- the girls have such different styles, but seem to totally love bing with each other. I love twins!

Awaiting Baby!

My dear friends Bennett and Virginia are awaiting the birth of their first baby in April. I wanted to make sure to capture this special time for them. We photographed Virginia when she was about 32 weeks, a great time to shoot pregnant bellies before the swelling and “I feel gigantic” emotions set in. Since I was pregnant not too long ago myself, I just find pregnancy to be such a beautiful time in a woman’s life, and I love photographing the joy shared between husband and wife as they await this miracle they have created. Maternity is to be celebrated, and it all begins even before the birth of the baby. Pregnancy is really a time to celebrate the woman beholding this child within, as once the babe is born, we all know who becomes the star of the show! 9Just peek at my personal baby blog to see what I mean!).

Virginia is particularly radiant, and the excitement is clear between her and her hubby. I cant wait to meet Baby Benginia as I fondly call their little one!

Little Miss S

She is the most darling almost- 2 year old I know! So quiet and sweet, pensive and articulate. Totally different from my wound-up little 6 1/2 month old boy!! We did this shoot way back in November at the National Botanic Gardens, and I just stumbled across these and wanted to make sure to share. It is a great place to take your little ones for an outing- there is a fabulous children’s garden where they can play, and of course, it makes for a great place to photograph the little ones at play.

I just love this last one of the little lady with her daddy… so cute- as we were walking to the car, the sky just opened up and let in the most amazing diffuse light over the Capitol. So beautiful!

Mini Sessions {highlights II}

Is this not the MOST beautiful family?? I just loved photographing these three cuties. Vintage processing all the way! I can’t wait until my little man is old enough to wear a styling suit like this little guy’s!

Welcome to my new blog!

So, you may be wondering “What’s up with the new blog, and what happened to all your old posts?” Well, I am wondering the same! I recently launched my brand new flash website that I have been slowly working on for almost a year (maternity leave has given me just the extra time to get it up and running finally!!), and decided I couldn’t have a new website without a new nifty looking blog. Well, when we created the new blog, somehow my old one mysteriously got deleted. Oops! Eventually I hope to re-create the old posts in the archives, but for now, we’re starting off with a clean slate, just in time for the 2010 season! Have a look around, and if you haven’t already, please check out my new website and sign up for my mailing list on the homepage!
