Dawn — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 21:36:14 +0000

This is handsome little Chase Houston. Love his name. Lately, we have had some of the most unique and classy boys’ names and this one is no exception! Bet you can’t guess that Dad enjoys the sport of hunting…the camo gives it away, right?

Dawn — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 01:04:18 +0000

Baby Sasha was such a sweet little newborn baby! She has family all the way over in India who have been waiting to see her mom and dad’s favorite portraits from her newborn session last month. I hope they all enjoy Miss Sasha in all her beautiful newborn beauty!

Maryland Newborn Baby Photographer ~ { Pure Joy }

Dawn — Sat, 17 Dec 2011 07:15:21 +0000

It truly was pure joy to work with this gorgeous newborn baby boy! He nearly slept through his entire session which gave ample opportunity to capture so many beautiful, artistic newborn images. This first time mom and dad drove all the way from Accokeek, Maryland which is all the way over in Prince Georges County. And, we could not have been more delighted and honored to have them come.

Please be sure to leave some baby love for the happy new parents!

Newborn Photographer near Arlington Virginia ~ { Baby Sweetness }

Dawn — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 00:32:15 +0000

This little bundle of baby sweetness was a last minute squeeze-in and at 26 days old, she was much more alert that most of our little newborn babies. But oh how sweet she was! Just look at her precious expression in the first picture! Doesn’t it just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?? It does me! I know her proud new mother and father are anxiously awaiting this sneak peek so lets not make them wait one minute more!

Here is your beautiful little Sasha in all her yummy newborn sweetness!

Newborn Photographer near Springfield Virginia ~ { Daddy’s Boy }

Dawn — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 20:49:13 +0000

I was thinking about title to this post and really wanted to put “spitting image” but without a photo of this little one’s daddy, it would be moot. But, seriously though…in the entire time I have been specializing in newborn photography, I have never seen a brand new baby be such a striking likeness to his daddy! I wish I could show you in this post but you’ll have to settle for the cuter of the two…Baby Nolan. (And, boy do I love his name too!)

Dad’s a huge NY Mets fan so he brought along his mitt and even a David Wright jersey. We used the jersey in a separate portrait but I decided to share this one because I love the colors and I know mom said it would go so well in baby’s nursery.

This portrait below was created using a very special blanket hand made by little Nolan’s great aunt in memory of his Great Grandfather who loved trains. We hung this heirloom-to-be blanket up as a background so all it’s handiwork could be appreciated. What a treasure this will become for this little one.

Baby Photographer to Woodbridge Virginia ~ { Miss Charlotte Grace }

Dawn — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 04:45:48 +0000

I am truly a blessed woman. God has blessed me in so many, many ways…there are too many to count. However, one blessing that I can name right now is all the beautiful babies and their families that allow me to reach into their lives for what really is such a brief moment…but one that captures a smile or an expression that will last a lifetime.

And, this family is no exception. It was only 12 short months ago when I met Miss Charlotte Grace when she captivated our hearts. And as beautiful as she was then as a fresh, newborn baby, she is equally beautiful now as she embarks on her second year of life. What joy to see our sweet babies growing up! As I said, I am a blessed woman…enjoy this little beauty!

Baby Photographers to Dulles Virginia ~ { Baby Fun! }

Dawn M. Miller — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 12:48:48 +0000

What fun 6 month old baby sessions are!! We always enjoy playing with babies this age. This little sweetheart’s big sister was here just over two years ago and I can’t help but imagine her being such a good big sister.

Mom & baby came from Dulles, Virginia for some artistic baby photography and we were excited to be able to use a few new props that have been waiting for just the right age baby. Love Miss C’s chubby, rosy cheeks and her sweet piggy toes poking out the doll crib. And just look at her toothless smile! Precious!

I know this sweetie’s family is so anxious to see this sneak peek…enjoy it!

Newborn Photographer near Alexandria Virginia ~ { Baby Tèa }

Dawn — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 07:11:27 +0000

Time for a slide show! This brand new mom and dad are from Alexandria, VA but they have family across the United States, as well as abroad, who are anxiously waiting to see this precious little girl.

Baby Tèa’s grandmother will recognize two very special keepsakes in the last portrait. Both the old teddy bear and the “cherry tree” blanket were her own daughter’s childhood lovies. It was our privilege to incorporate them into one of baby Tèa’s portraits…all though I don’t think she noticed as she sleep right through it all tucked down in her basket! What a sweetie! Enjoy!

Newborn Photographers to Leesburg Virginia ~ { Little Lion }

Dawn — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 20:27:18 +0000

Oh my! Just look at this little lion in all his cuteness! What a sleepy little fellow he was too. We had so much fun “playing” with him and his furry friends in this basket. He slept for nearly the entire session which gave us loads of time to capture all the precious details of this newborn stage. Mom and dad are going to be so excited to see them all!

Be sure to “leave some love” for these proud first time parents from Leesburg VA.

Baby Photographers to Maryland ~ { Baby Catherine }

Dawn — Fri, 10 Jun 2011 22:08:11 +0000

This session was so different to our early newborn sessions. Mary and I had so much fun “playing” with this sweet baby girlie from Bethesda Maryland. She was full of heart-melting smiles and just an all around happy, bubbly four month old baby. This little gal’s daddy was unable to come to the investment session so we thought he and other family members would enjoy seeing a little slideshow of mom’s favorite images! Enjoy!!!

Newborn Baby Photographer to Suburban Maryland ~ { Baby Melania }

Dawn — Tue, 24 May 2011 16:29:22 +0000

I just love this little one’s name. It simply suits her precious personality to a “t”. Here’s a few of her mother’s favorites from her newborn baby session on her 13th day of life. Thank you again for allowing us to capture Melania’s newborn beauty! We so very much enjoyed our time together with you and your beautiful family.

Maternity Photographers to Brambleton & Ashburn, Virginia ~ { Anticipation }

Dawn — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 23:24:37 +0000

What a lovely, lovely couple. I am so blessed to be able to photograph some of the nicest couples during their special time of anticipation. And, here recently, so many of our maternity portrait clients have been coming from the Ashburn / Dulles area… must be something in the water over there!

This couple from Brambleton, VA was no exception… both are super excited about their expected little one. Dad remarked that he was not fond of being in front of the camera but honestly, the camera loves him! Just look at the image below…dad is just awesome! Mom was just gorgeous and a joy to work with too. She was such a cute little thing ~ I wish I looked that awesome at 7 months pregnant.

Pregnancy Portraits, Ashburn Virginia ~ { Radiant }

Dawn — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 02:25:54 +0000

This beautiful expecting mom from Ashburn Virginia was here at the studio this week for her artistic pregancy portraits. Wowza, she was radiant! She and her dear hubby already have a beautiful toddler girl who is as precious as can be and I cannot wait to meet their new little addition! I promise to share more next week but for now, here is one of my most favorite images from her portrait session…isn’t she gorgeous??

Northern Virginia Newborn Photographer ~ { In Daddy’s Hands }

Dawn M. Miller — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 02:35:57 +0000

This newborn baby’s mom & dad commissioned us to create this image for a canvas to hang on a large wall behind their baby grand piano. Mom had noticed the artistic photography which is often featured on the top TV show Extreme Home Makeover and wanted a similar art piece of her baby boy. We were delighted to be able to fulfill her request and we cannot wait to see the canvas when it arrives in the studio!

I love this pose – it really captures the contrast of this tiny newborn in his daddy’s strong hands. Daddy’s are such an important part of a child’s life and I think this pose just speaks volumes, don’t you?
