Dawn – Dear C Family ~ Thank you for choosing us to capture this very special time in your baby boy’s life! We enjoyed every moment with him and the both of you! ♥ ♥
Emily – These are sooooo cute! He is just precious!!!!!! Love the camo shirt! I am sure Troy had something to do with that one! LOL
This newborn baby’s family is from right down the road in Gainesville, Virginia so it was a short little ride to the studio for his newborn session. He slept through the first whole hour and hardly made a sound except for these precious little peeps and sweet little baby whimpers. Such a precious baby boy!

So, the second half of the session was a bit different to the first! Baby was happily awake and giving us some of the cutest expressions. Check out this little “happy baby” look! Super cute, right? You betcha!

These two beautiful children from Bristow, Virginia were here a week ago. All though I will show the color version of these childrens portraits to their parents, I fell in love with this vintage look and decided to share those here on the blog. Yummy!
Feel free to leave comments for their mommy & daddy! We all love to hear how adorable our little ones are!

Love this image from a newborn session last week and could not resist putting a bit of an artistic spin on it. This little man let us do anything with him…once he was in a deep sleep! Doesn’t he have the cutest itty bitty baby bottom?

Two adorable sisters from Warrenton Virginia were in the studio this week for some fun and creative portraits. When they arrived, I was thrilled to see them in their Kaiya Eve pettiskirts that they bought at our local children’s boutique in old town Warrenton, VA. Whether girlie girl or tom boy… ALL little girls love these pettiskirts and they are always fun to use in portraits! Oh, what a pretty “your child as {art}”™ gallery wrap canvas this would make!
Lets see some comments for these pretty little girls to read! I told them they would be “famous” as soon as I posted their sneak peeks!!

Oh my goodness, this little girl from Gainesville, Virginia was just precious to work with. She had the cutest little grin! She is turning one on the 12th so her mom and dad brought her in to the studio for her First Birthday photos.
We did a variety of studio portraits, from sweet to messy! She very much enjoyed the last part of the session which was eating her 1st birthday cake!

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.
