This absolutely beautiful baby girlie was with us yesterday for her newborn session – however, she decided that she did NOT want to miss out on anything. So, she pretty much stayed wide awake for almost the entire session! I had to admit defeat and give her credit for outlasting me. As many of you know, I normally prevail in these situations but on this occasion – not so much!
So, her loving mommy is going drive back from Alexandria, Virginia again next week so we can create those dreamy, sleepy baby portraits that we all adore. In the mean time, the portrait below is the perfect representation of Miss J’s whole visit with us – big beautiful bright eyes and all! And look at her yummy baby cheeks…
This sweet baby boy from the Leesburg Virginia area surprised his mother and father by arriving a bit ahead of schedule. He was so precious and had the softest little head of curls and plump little lips to match ~ perfection! Check out his little sleepy grin – doesn’t that just warm your heart?
Hope his doting family enjoys their sneak peek. Hope your little blessing is letting you get some night time zzzzzzz’s! 
This little one’s Mom & Dad decided to not find out if they were having a boy or a girl until delivery day. Secretly, I was hoping for a little girl simply because we have had a ton of baby boys at the studio since January. And so, when mom said she had a little princess, we were very excited to use a few new “girlie” items that we have picked up over the last few months.
Thank you “V” family for driving all the way from Stafford, Virginia to allow us the honor of capturing this most precious time in your newborn baby girl’s life. I hope you and your family enjoy this little sneak peek of your princess!
I had the pleasure of meeting the sweetest new mom and dad from Culpeper Virginia last week. This is their first baby and you could just feel the pride emanating from them both!
For me personally, I fell head-over-heels in love with this 12-day old little man’s hair. It was sooo soft and just made you want to continually ”pet” him – not to mention cuddle him!
Just look at this precious face with a glorious topping of the softest hair…
This week we had the sweetest couple from Ashburn Virginia come to the studio for a newborn baby session. Their new “Little Drummer Boy” was delightful to work with. Dad is a RUSH fan and as such, he brought along his snare drum for me to use as a special prop. I love it when clients share their ideas. The image below is the result and I think we’d all agree that this is the cutest little RUSH fan ever!
This sweet family from South Riding, Virginia received their Christmas present about a week early – their newborn baby boy! How joyful for them! They were here just a couple days before Christmas for their newborn portrait session and this little man was such a sleepy little one to start out with…what a joy he was to play with! We created some awesome “your baby as {art}”™ portraits of this little one that I cannot wait to show to his proud parents. Below are two of my personal favorites.
Be sure to leave some comments for this newborn baby’s adoring mother and father below!
This Alexandria Virginia mom and dad were in the portrait studio just a few weeks ago for their maternity portraits. Last week they brought their precious little baby girl back for some creative newborn baby portraits. Her mother and father have been waiting a long time to hold her…she was definitely worth the wait!
Even her abuela who was visiting from Connecticut came along to enjoy the experience… we all enjoyed watching this precious little angel donning her flower hat. And the SMILES! Oh my!! This little girl was full of smiles for us!
Thanks for leaving the parents of this newborn baby some blog love in the comment box beneath her portraits….
This little newborn baby’s daddy has many clients who are Washington Redskins football players. So mom commissioned us to get the “baby on the football” pose for Dad’s office. Dad was so patient and awesome with his little 5 day old baby in his hands. And, as you can see, Dad scored! What an adorable and precious little one to work with.
Feel free to leave some comments for the proud parents of this little one…just use the comment function below the image.
This precious baby girl was in the studio this week for her newborn portraits and ”oh my” what a cutie pie she is! Look at her beautiful big brown eyes…not to mention that curlie hair! No wonder her mother and father are gushing over her! So, here is a sneak peek for you, your friends and all of your out of state family!
Be sure to leave this Alexandria, Virginia mom & dad some blog love! They love to see everybody’s comments!!
Just before vacation I learned that this newborn princess surprised her mommy & daddy by coming a few weeks early… she wasn’t due until July 5th! Since I was headed out of town for a much needed vacation, we couldn’t get this darling into the studio for her newborn baby portraits until this week. But even at two weeks old, she still curled up perfectly for me. She made the cutest little faces too!
So… for her proud family and friends in the Lorton, Virginia area, here are a couple of sneak peeks of your baby as {art}™. Be sure and leave mom & dad some “blog love” in the comment section below…….. Enjoy!!
I had a little angel visit me on her 7th day for her newborn portrait session…really, an angel! This little baby slept for me nearly the entire time and when her little eyes were open…she hardly made a peep! I kept telling her mother and father who live in Springfield, Virginia that they are two very blessed parents. I see a LOT of newborns and this one wins the title of the “sleepiest” little angel.
I love, love, love the adorable hat that her mommy brought ~ she wore it well in this image!!! What a precious angel! Don’t forget to leave some blog love for this proud mom & dad.
I am busy, busy, busy working on client sessions today and thought I’d share one of my favorite images from a recent newborn portrait session. This is one of my favortie “miracle shots” so far. I have done it for two of my clients and they both turned out awesome! The other client brought the same fresh flowers she used in her wedding (blue hydrangeas~ one of my favorites!) to be incorporated into the setting and it turned out beautiful too. I just love little newborn tooshies in the air! Can’t you just imagine this as a ”your baby as { Art }”™ gallery wrap canvas hanging in the nursery? Oh my!
This darling little baby girl from Vienna, Virginia arrived just before Easter! What a precious little bundle. During our session, it was totally apparent that she has already taken her familys’ hearts captive. Sharing a few of my favs for her daddy, mommy and big brother.
Be sure to leave some blog love for the family of this newly arrived angel in the grey comment box below!
Grandma made this adorable hat for little Miss “F” ~ how adorable is this?
I just love the perspective on this…such tiny little feet nestled in daddy’s steady and strong hands. Beautiful.
This newborn baby girl was totally a doll baby to work with! She has the prettiest little lips too. This made such an awesome 24″ x 30″ Gallery Wrap wall canvas…love all the rich color! 
Oh My Goodness, what a beautiful baby girl from Culpeper, Virginia. She was just delicious! I love photographing newborns at this age! She was total perfection and her parents were as sweet as could be. We even had her big sister stop by the studio towards the end of their newborn session. So here you go… my fav from your session!!
