Newborn Photographers to Alexandria Virginia ~ { Big Baby Blues }

Dawn — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 23:30:55 +0000

This precious little princess had the perfect balance of “sleepy time” and “wakey time”. She must have known how much we wanted a portrait of her big, beautiful, deep blue eyes as she gave us a good 15 minutes of awake time right after a feeding. In looking at her dad, it was clear that she has her daddy’s eyes! She was a bit older than most of our newbies but even on her 18th day of life, she was still such a petite little bundle. It is was totally evident just how smitten her parents are with her…and why wouldn’t they be??

Mary and I really enjoyed the hours we spent with this little blessing and as always, I am so honored that her mother and father chose Dandelion Wishes® to capture this precious time in her life! We truly appreciate all our clients that travel from Alexandria, Virginia for our newborn sessions – and there has been a LOT recently…must be something in the water there!!

Newborn Baby Photographers to Arlington Virginia ~ { Heritage }

Dawn M. Miller — Wed, 04 May 2011 14:54:51 +0000

This brand new little one was such a pleasure. He hardly made a peep for being a newborn baby! I told his mom and dad multiple times how truly blessed they are! I was worried they would not be able to make the trip all the way from Arlington, Virginia last week. They were coming the morning after all that severe weather last week but fortunately, all our roads were clear of debris by morning.

This little one came into a family with a rich heritage. His parents chose his middle name to honor a patriot ancestor, named Icem Davis. I love, love, love the name Icem. So unique and then to have a name that honors his family history? Very cool, indeed.

So, for his family who has been so patiently waiting for his sneak peek…enjoy your little blessing!!

Newborn Baby Portraits, Washington DC Area ~ { Contrast }

Dawn — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 15:03:18 +0000

There is something about dad and baby portraits that touch my heart in a special way. Part of it must be the contrast between the delicate features of a fresh newborn baby and their daddy’s big strong hands. This dad was so into his new little man – it was beautiful to watch. Getting this football image set up takes a LOT of patience, particularly on the part of the dad and this one deserves kuddos for a job well done!

I know this will make his wife swoon! So, here you go girl ~ how awesome are your two men together??

Like most photographers, I get an itch from time to time to try something different. I’ve had these maternity poses in my mind for some time now & I’ve been waiting for someone willing to indulge my creative juices. This lovely lady gave me free reign… and she totally rocked the “windy mama” pose! On top of that, doesn’t she just “glow” in the pink maternity wrap?

It is always a joy to me to observe the love that new parents have for these little miracles that have been given them and this new mother and father were no different. It was clear that they are smitten with this new little human that God has entrusted to them.

Baby Photographer to Alexandria Virginia ~ { Oh Baby! }

Dawn — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 18:08:10 +0000

A lovely mom from Alexandria Virginia brought her adorable baby girl in this week to celebrate her first birthday with some “baby’s 1st birthday portraits.” Before we got into the “smash the birthday cake” shots we caught just a few images of her in her girlie finerie. Precious little lips, rosey cheeks and beautiful eyes – she is picture perfect! But Oh Baby – she really enjoyed the second part when she got to eat the icing on the cake!

I remember when my daughter was this age and now she is getting ready to turn ten! Time flies so quickly…what better way to remember this milestone than with a few portraits like this?
