Newborn Photographer to Accokeek, Maryland ~ { Baby Mason }

This sweet little lad was a total gem…with the softest tufts of hair that I could not resist stroking constantly.  He was simply amazing!

Beth – What a cutie!! The shots are amazing!

Maryland Newborn Baby Photographer ~ { Pure Joy }

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!

  

Leave them some love!!

Dawn – Dear W Family ~ I thoroughly enjoyed meeting all three of you this week. I hope you enjoy your sneak peek of your brand new little man! Blessings, Dawn ♥ ♥

Baby Photographers to Maryland ~ { Baby Catherine }

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!!!

 

Laura Bender – This is my 2nd granddaughter. She is absolutely beautiful. Your photographs are wonderful. I just want to pick her up and squeeze her. Thanks for the slideshow.

Newborn Photographers to Capitol Heights Maryland ~ { 13 days new }

We were so pleased to be able to accomodate this lovely mom & her 13 day new baby girl last week as a last minute squeeze-in.   Mom and her newborn made the trip all the way from Capitol Heights Maryland in PG County, to the studio for her newborn session.  What a precious little bundle she was!  And, all though she was a catnapper, she hardly made any noise when she was awake…such a lovely little princess.

She joins her two older brothers and a very proud mommy and daddy so this little sneak peek is for them!  Please feel free to leave them a comment on their new born blessing!

Maternity Photographers to Maryland MD ~ { Elegant Baby Bump }

Yesterday we welcomed a lovely couple all the way from Waldorf, Maryland who wanted to celebrate this special time in their lives with elegant maternity portraits. 

I absolutely adore how this pink maternity wrap accentuates this beautiful mom-to-be’s baby bump.  Isn’t she stunning?  Wow.  And then, we have dad ”listening” to his growing baby…and it was so sweet that his little baby started kicking him whilst he was listening.  Precious.

Newborn Photographers to Rockville Maryland ~ { Dude }

This little guy from the Rockville Maryland area was in last week and was Mr. Smiley for all of about 40 minutes at which time he decided the session was over – lol!  He just was not in the mood so mom and grandma brought him back this past week.  This time, he was totally “on”.  His other grandma calls him “Dude” and says he smiles when she does, so you know I had to try it and believe it or not, it did get his attention!  Too cute! 

So, here is a sneak peek from little “Dude’s” second visit…he did great mom and dad!

Angela Griffith – Oh this is precious! Little Dude is a doll!!

Luke’s Grandma Mimi – Dawn, you have done it again! I am sorry I had to go home to Florida. However, I am not sorry I missed “the Perfect Storm” as Luke’s dad calls the latest snow storm. It will be hard for me not to see all the proofs when they are ready!

Janet – Mimi is so proud of her little Dude-I can see why-he is beautiful.

Heather Georger – What a sweet handsome little boy!

Pregnancy Portraits Washington DC Metro Area ~ { Bittersweet }

A moment captured in time…a tender moment…a brief moment…a bittersweet memory that will last in this couple’s hearts forever.  Shortly after the creation of this image, their sweet baby boy slipped from this world into the arms of Jesus.  For reasons his sweet parents will never understand, he was called home. 

Their loss touched all of us here at the studio deeply and we continue to pray for them.   So, at the request of his parents, I share this in memory of little Micah Aiden.  You can tell he was loved so very deeply…

Dawn – I absolutely LOVE this portrait of the two of you together…it captured the love you both feel for each other and for little Micah. God bless, Dawn ♥ ♥

La’Nae – Beautiful photo Shop. You, Mike and my precious nephew Micah are always in my prayers. Love you all so much. As always Dawn, your work is gorgeous. I’m so happy that they were able to capture this moment. May God continue to Bless and keep you all.

Beth – This brings tears to my eyes. What a wonderful and touching shot. I am praying for this couple over the loss of their precious Mikah.

Angela Griffith – I love the emotion in this image! Stunning

Courtney – What a gorgeous portrait! My heart goes out to them and sweet baby Micah.

Fireworks! { Professional Photographer Northern Virginia MD DC Area }

I hope everybody had a wonderful July 4th celebration!  We just got back last weekend from being at the beach for a week for our family vacation.  I promise to share some images from the trip soon!  

For the fourth year in a row, my family and I celebrated independence day by going to the awesome fireworks display at Great Meadows in The Plains, Virginia.  It is only a very short drive from Warrenton, VA.  They always have the very best pyrotechnic display in this area!  I look forward every year to trying to capture just a bit of this grand display…so here is this year’s best from where I parked ~ it was the perfect summer night to take in such an incredible fireworks production!  Can’t wait til next year!

This one is my kids favorite shots… they both think it looks like a palm tree!  I swear it looks like the fireworks shot right out of the middle of the cars in the field but what really happened was my tripod broke and my camera would ever-so-slowly creep downwards and so it made it look like the fireworks were shooting out from the cars – totally weird!

Angela Griffith – You know you are the best Dawn! Oh my Goodness these are spectacular!

Beth – Wow!!! I absolutely LOVE these!! Can’t get any better photos of fireworks than that. Wish we had been there. It looks like an awesome display.

Newborn Photographer Washington DC Metro Area ~ { Pretty lil’ Princess }

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!

Angela Griffith – Absolutely precious!!! I LOVE the Shabby Chic look!!!!

Steph – This image is GORGEOUS!! Love it!

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!

Personal Favorites { Portrait Studio Northern Virginia DC MD }

I’m looking forward to getting busy again after the long holiday break.  I was thinking back over all the little cuties that I had the priviledge of working with…So, before moving into the new year I thought I’d share some of my favorite shots from last year.  I so enjoyed working with each of these babies & children in the studio.
