What a super sweet couple we had the pleasure of meeting last week. This expecting couple from Leesburg Virginia are due to welcome their little man “very” soon! They squeezed into the schedule just in time to capture some maternity portraits of this amazing time. Doesn’t this mamma have the cutest baby bump??
Dawn – Dear Michelle & Kunal ~ What an absolute pleasure it was meeting you both last week! We are so excited to meet your precious little boy…it’ll be here before you know it! ♥ ♥
Karen – Beautiful picture and I’m dying to know where she got that top!
Dawn – I think it was one of the local dept stores that she mentioned it came from…it’s darling isn’t it??
When this brand new Mom and Dad from Leesburg, Virgina sent me photographs of their “sea” themed nursery my mind wondered to warm, sunny days at the beach! So, we used this bucket from this newborn baby’s nursery, along with some OBX sand and a few gorgeous shells I have here at the studio and ~ voila! We came up with an over-the-top set for this sleepy little beach boy’s portraits! It won’t be long before he’ll be cruz’n the beaches carrying his bucket to collect all the best sea treasures!
Enjoy your sneak peek mom, dad and grandparents!!

Last week, this sweet doll baby from Warrenton Virginia came to the studio. Little Miss “G” has been here before and she always makes me work really, really hard for her smiles but I have to say they are soooo worth it! When she smiles, she lights up the room like sunshine on a summer day. In fact, that is the pet name her Austrian grandmother has for her… her little ”sonnenschein” which is German for sunshine.
So, here is a sneak peek for this sweet baby girl’s family!

Grandma C. – What a special little granddaughter. Dawn, you make her pictures look like something out of magazines. Of course being so cute and photogenic helps too. Love you princess (you could be one you know!)–Grandma C.
Tara – Such a pretty little girl! Great job Dawn! Way to capture the light in her eyes!
Iva Tipton – Beautiful baby…beautiful picture!
Jasmine – Her little eyes and her smile is just precious! I hope to someday feel the love that you feel for your daughter.
Christmas fun for the whole family… including the cat!! This Northern Virginia family returned to the studio for some artistic children’s portraits to use in their photo Christmas cards this holiday season. In addition to the really cool shots we got of Master “S” and his favorite furry friend (who is nearly as big as he is!), we captured some fun family Christmas portraits.
Their Christmas cards turned out totally chic and unique… too bad we can’t show you the whole card here. We don’t want to ruin their friends and family’s surprise of receiving their cards in the mail. Though with Christmas just around the corner you won’t have too long to wait to see the finished cards.
Hope you enjoy this little sneak peek. As always, be sure to leave them some blog love……

Angela Griffith – Gorgeous! I love how you capture the emotion so well!!!
Beth – These shots are wonderful. I love how the mom-to-be looks in that gorgeous crocheted sweater! Just beautiful!
This 10 month old little sweetie was here Thursday and we had the best time! I have to tell you…this baby girl had the most beautiful, long eye lashes I have ever seen on a baby! And they encircled the yummiest chocolate brown eyes! I could tell her momma loves her to pieces and I can see why. She was a bit shy at first but after a while little Miss “G” warmed right up for us!
Here’s a sneak peek for her adoring mother and father…enjoy these images of “your baby as {art}”™.

This darling mom-to-be came into the studio today from Warrenton, Virginia for some artistic maternity portraits. She was at the very end of her pregnancy ~ her baby was actually due today! I am so glad the baby waited!
When you think about it, maternity portraits are really your baby’s first photos. So, we started off doing some very artistic images. The first one would be a wonderful “your bump as art” ™ wall portrait. Gorgeous in a bedroom setting!
After getting the creative images, we ended with some fun ones!
So, here is a sneak peek for the expectant mom and dad-to-be as they celebrate the final momements of their pregnancy. Be sure to share your comments with them below….
