Welcome, Baby C!

I've already forgotten how content newborns are just to sleep and sleep... Miss C was just perfect throughout her entire shoot.  It was only until we were done and ready to put some clothes on the sweet baby that we discovered she'd left us a little surprise on her parents' duvet.  Oops... lesson learned.

 

Around town

I think Washington, D.C. has to be one of the most photogenic cities in the world... I am sure to always have my camera along with me during any opportunity I have to be out and about downtown as you never know what you'll find going on or which monument or memorial looking especially picture-worthy.  You can tell I absolutely love our Stars and Stripes... it doesn't take much to make them look good.  

 

Big L Turns 4!

Ewwww... you stink!

The son of some dear friends turned 4 (already?!) recently so we happily joined in on his trash-themed birthday festivities. Mother Nature graced us with a beautiful fall day, perfect for the birthday boy and all of his friends to celebrate outside.  

S is 6 Months Old!

This little lady has a special place in our hearts as her mom and I were pregnant at the exact same time (we even started out with the same due date).  We also celebrated our first Mother's Day together so I was more than happy to help when they asked if I'd take some family shots when S turned 6 months.  And I must say - despite S's dad being less than overjoyed to participate, the shots of him and his little girl are priceless.  

  
 

The T's are Having a Baby!

It didn't take long to discover that one of the greatest joys of taking pictures is being asked by a close friend to document an incredibly special time in her life.

We happened to be down in North Carolina and this proud momma-to-be (and one of my best friends) asked me to take some pictures of them before Baby T's grand arrival.  We can't wait to meet this special little boy!

Miss E Turns 1!

It's cliche... and perhaps it felt so much more this time having my own little one... but has it really been a year since little E waltzed into our lives?  As bittersweet a day this way, marking a whole twelve months of life (already gone by), we all managed to enjoy it every bit of it - certainly thanks to E's creative and hard-working parents mom.  Happiest 1 Year, Miss E!

A First Mother's Day

This Mother's Day was especially meaningful as it was a first for both our good friends, the G's, as well as us.  Even with a 6-week old on their hands, the G's were generous enough to have a delicious luncheon to celebrate such a special day.  The afternoon was perfect and I was happy to have grabbed these quick family shots.  

Thanks, G's!  And congratuations!!
