Me+Flopsy=Happiness Washington DC baby photographer

Me+Flopsy+90 plus degree weather=not so great. Isn’t this the sweetest set with beret? If she could only talk she would have told us how crazy this was - alas it lasted maybe 3 minutes. This 9 month old client was seriously one of the *happiest* smiliest babies ever (although she is staring with intent and curiousity here). What a blessing she is to your family, thank you and I truly enjoyed meeting you.

I lost my voice after this session, seriously. The stars were aligned as a few dates needed to be worked out and with their busy hectic schedule getting ready for vacation, try outs, college it was the one and only night to do the session. I will probably add a few more as there are just too many I adored. These kids (and mom and dad) were just awesome to work with. I enjoyed meeting you and will be in touch!

I had the pleasure of photographing these boy/girl twins back when they were around 15 months old who are now in their 3’s. It truly was a delight and what perfect weather. I sure hope they enjoyed that Rainbow ice cream ;)  I have to admit I love, love, love the one of them kissing. awww


A spunky lil fella and family … Northern Virginia Family Photographer

So I’ve been renting this fun wide angle lens and have had a blast using in recent sessions. I am so buying this lens, it is being added to my collection for sure. What I love most about it is the way it captures the sky and candid moments. I admit using the lenses I do, I am generally quite far away from clients - with this one I could reach out and touch someone in an instant. So a few cool funky perspectives and a few with my favorite portrait lenses I could not do without.
