Chic Baby Bump { Pregnancy Photographer Washington DC Metro Area }

This darling couple from Lorton, Virginia were in the studio Friday for their pregnancy portrait session.  The expectant mom-to-be requested one of my signature bump poses; the pink tulle and gerber daisy.   I asked her if she was open to trying something unique and fortunately for me, she was!  I love the way it turned out and hopefully she will to!   Another “your bump as { Art }”™ original.

Professional Photographer VA DC MD ~ { A Spring Walk }

This past Sunday, my daughter and I took a walk down Main Street in old town Warrenton, Virginia.  Though it was a bit chilly I could definitely feel Spring in the air.  As she walked happily along the low walls that define many of the little front yards, I was reminded of how it felt to be an eight year old child ~ so care free.  We talked about all the pretty flowers that were finally emerging after a long cold winter and we stopped to take some pictures of some of our favorites.  So I thought I’d share a few to brighten your day today!  Be blessed today!

A Vintage Touch { Newborn Photographer Northern Virginia }

I finished up this precious newborn baby girls’ session in the studio today.   But the artist in me just would not let me leave this image alone!  I have learned to listen to that little voice and so I started creating…I love the finished portrait and just thought I’d share it with you all.  It has a shabby, vintage feel to it that I just love.  Leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

Frogs, Frogs & More Frogs! { Baby & Child Photographer Washington DC }

Since my kids are off school for Easter break this week, we decided to do a couple of “fun” things.  So, off we went to a wonderful exhibit at the National Geographic building in Washington, DC.  We all had such a great time and it was great fun trying to photograph all the cool frogs and toads.  Honestly, if you love these little amphibians, then you must try to get to this exhibit.  There are probably a couple dozen different species…some much cuter than others!  So, here is just a few of my favorite froggy friends…

Your colors are so vibrant and I love these picts! They look like they belong on a calender! Is there anything you can’t take picts of so great?

Dawn – Thanks Angela, tell Konner that I am naming these little frog-ettes in honor of he and Kennah! Twin frogs – too funny!!
