Sweet Baby....

Just sharing a few previews from today's newborn session....well almost 5weeks old.

Here's the sweet little girl....all wide awake for us :)
Doesn't she look like a little doll when she's sleeping... almost makes me want one more.
And of course, a feet shot....how tiny.

I hope you enjoy your previews. I'll have your gallery ready in about a week.

Playing Catch Up...

Sorry it's been so long since my last post. We've been really busy and sick lately. My parents have been here visiting for a little before heading up to Cape Cod to visit with my aunt. We'll be heading that way soon! I'm looking forward to shooting my first beach shots with the kids!

Here's some shots from the past week. Over the Memorial Day weekend, Simon and I drove to to Charlottesville to visit with friends and do a maternity photo shoot.

Here's one from the session...

On the way back we stopped at one of the scenic over looks and I got this beautiful view of the blue ridge mountains.

We also stopped at James Madison's Montpelier...the home of the 4th president of the United States. Here's some details from the place. They are currently renovating it to be like the days when he lived there.

We had a great visit with my parents! The kids got so spoiled to them being here. Here's a shot of Dad and Hannah walking out to see the geese at George Washington's Grist Mill.
I also did a little mini-session with Simon and the kids. Well, the kids weren't too into it & I don't have too many keepers from it. Here's just a couple, though.

I've got a newborn session in the morning so I'll have more to post tomorrow :)

Sneak Peek...

Just wanted to post a little preview from today's newborn and family session. What a precious little one. She was awake for much of the session so you can really see those beautiful big eyes. And she has a great big sister to take care of her, too. Miss Big Sister loved the camera & had so much fun changing into all her pretty dresses.

Here's the sweet little baby....


Mom and big sister with baby...

And the whole family...

Thank you for welcoming me into your beautiful home and letting me photograph your family! I'll have your gallery online in about a week for you to view all the photos.

Spring family

Here are the previews I promised you. Sorry it's so late....I know you've probably already gone to bed. I'm too much of a night owl :)

What a fun family.... I've got lots of cute, goofy faces from big brother, too

One of my favs....You can see each individual little seed.

Happy mother's day!

You all are such a sweet family & your kids remind me of my own. I hope you enjoy your previews. I'll have your gallery up in about a week.

Beautiful belly...

Just wanted to post a few previews from the maternity session this morning before I head out to a much needed mom's night out!. Have you ever seen a more gorgeous pregnant woman!! I'd have 10 more kids if I could look this great pregnant :).

...and we had a beautiful location to work with!

Thanks for the fun session....You guys are such a cool couple! Be on the look out for your gallery link & password. It'll be in about a week.

Oh....and I'll have the family session from this afternoon up late tonight :).

A Lazy Sunday Morning...

I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to share some of my own personal photos. I took these this morning when while everyone was just having a lazy day....don't you love those!!

We went to Wal-Mart last night, and Andrew choose to get these little army guys (or Marine guys as Simon calls them). Hannah was being a little prissy girl and choose this pretty pink dress and a sparkly, pink purse.

Here's Daddy and Andrew playing army guys...

And this is my little model....every time she sees the camera, she starts posing!

I love her hair in pig tails! She's finally old enough to keep them in longer than 5 minutes.

Senior Guy...

I wanted to share today's session....my first high school senior shoot!! This is Aaron. He's into technology and computers and all that stuff that I know nothing about. Oh...by the way, did you know I actually called tech support because my computer wasn't playing music. Can you guess what was wrong.....Yep, the volume was turned down ;-).

Anyways....back to the pictures.


Thanks for the fun session....I'm glad your mom made you do it!!

Hope you enjoy your previews, I'll have your gallery up in a little over a week.

Two for tea...

Just sharing a collage from this morning's session. I never thought about the tea party session for a little boy, but I think it works great!

Here are the little cuties....

Birthday Baby!

Just sharing a few previews from tonight. This little guy was so full of energy. I think he liked the sound that the paper background made when he crawled around on it. We did get him to sit still with the cake! I think he would have eaten the whole thing if Mom didn't step in. It was so fun watching him tear into it!

Here's the photos....

Still clean...
Just a messy mouth...
Now here's the mess...

Thanks for the fun session! I hope you enjoy the previews.
