A few weeks back, this little sweetie came for one of our baby sessions and if you recall, we had loads of fun! Now that her mommy & daddy have been back for the reveal, we can share more of the adorable expressions we captured…I bet she makes you smile just as much as she did me! Plus, I know her aunties, uncles and grandparents are dying to see them all too…enjoy!

Baby Photographers to Dulles Virginia ~ { Baby Fun! }

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 Baby Photographers to Sterling Virginia ~ { Itty Bitty Princess }

Dawn — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 21:40:14 +0000

Well, it seems like this little princess’s mom and dad from Sterling, Virginia where just here for their maternity session! Oh my, how time flies! Sooooo, after being fashionably late, little Miss Caelee Grace finally arrived, to the great joy of her mom and dad. She was an itty bitty little peanut at just under 6 lbs and a picture of perfection through out her session. We were able to capture a wonderful variety of newborn baby portraits because she slept nearly the entire five hours! She only made a few little peeps when she was hungry – my oh my, how blessed her new mother and father are!

***And, just a little side note, after a 15 month long run of never being peed or pooped on, it seems only fitting that Caelee “Grace” was the baby who “graced” Mary with a shirt full! Gotta love the irony of that!

Thank you to this little princess’s family, who waited so patiently for her sneak peek…I hope it was worth your wait!

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.

Newborn Photographer to Ashburn Virginia ~ { Curls Galore }

Just before the snow began to fall last week, this sweet couple and their newborn baby son came from Ashburn Virgina for a newborn portrait art session. What a sweet baby he is! He slept nearly the entire time with only a little squeak now and again. Oh, and his HAIR! Love, love, love his hair!! I had a really hard time keeping my hands off of his soft curls!

Dad is a marine who was home for the birth of his son and must return to the west coast next week so I know he will enjoy seeing this sneak peek of his brand new baby boy!
