She’s ONE! | Maryland Baby Photographer

You know the adorable little baby on my splash page? Well she is ONE now! Yesterday afternoon we met up for her one year session and had the most beautiful warm winter evening light. It was a little chilly but Miss A was a total trooper and was full of smiles the whole time.

I loved everything about this session. Look how stylish she is!

Beautiful light, beautiful baby & beautiful Mama. I heart this.

Happy girl in her pretty little Christmas dress.

M family, it was a pleasure watching your beautiful baby girl grow up before my lens! Enjoy her!

Fun and One! | Arlington Virginia Baby Photographer

It feels so good to get out and shoot again! I’m not back from maternity leave officially but scheduled a few sessions here and there before my official start in January. Today I was itching to get out and capture the last of the fall color we have here in Virginia and was so excited to find what I did.

This little guy was the most expressive little one year old I’ve ever photographed. It was a little chilly this afternoon but he was a champ and we got some amazing photos.

Is he not the cutest?! I adore that wispy brown and grin.

As soon as I clicked the shutter I knew I loved this one, it’s an instant fav! The color of those leaves in the background is just amazing.

Weeeeeee!

V & M, it was so nice meeting you all today hope your party is super fun tomorrow!

Day 8 | Easton Maryland Newborn Photographer

I’ve been photographing this awesome family since their firstborn was a newborn, in fact we just did her 1 year session in August! When Mom told me she was due in November, only 3 weeks after my due date, I was so bummed thinking I wouldn’t be able to do the session.  Sometimes things just work out, I delivered 2 weeks early and was able to do their session while at my Dad’s farm for a long weekend in Eason, Maryland. We had such a beautiful day and I was so excited to meet their newest addition!

Mr. C is such a little chunker! His big sis was a peanut and when I did her session she was only about 5 pounds, this guy was nearly 10 pounds!

Miss K is walking all over the place now and could not be any cuter! I was so excited to shoot outside on the ground of my Dad’s property because the fall color is still simply amazing out there.

Oh I love those rolls!

He looks so much like big sis did!

I love this. I don’t think they could be a cuter family if they tried.

Congratulations Q family, your newest addition is perfect and it was so great spending time with you all on Friday. I hope to see you again soon!!

1 Month! | Ashburn Virginia Newborn Photographer

How is it that my Reed is already one month, 33 days old?! He’s such a laid back baby, he loves to nurse, sleep and is starting to really wake up and look around at everything around him. He’s a big boy, much chunkier than my Carter was. Last week he was already 10 pounds and according to the pediatrician in perfect health.

Here are a few recent photos of my little men.

I have a feeling this is the end of the sleepy photos of him, he is really more alert during the day and definitely not as bendy and flexible as he was a few weeks ago.

I can’t wait to see that little face light up with a smile!

Someone is going to have beautiful blue eyes like his brother and daddy.

His first monthly photo. :-)

My favorite little Hokie fans.

My crazy Carter.

Carter is definitely still adjusting to his new role but seems to love Reed. I think once Reed starts to interact more Carter will really start enjoying him, right now he just sees him as someone who’s taking up too much of Mommy’s attention. ;-)

We are headed to the farm on Thursday for 4 days of fun so stay tuned for lots more photos! I’m also sneaking out of maternity leave to do a newborn session for a favorite past client while there, I can’t stay away from work long it seems.

How is it November already?? | Virginia Child Photographer

November? Really? Time has been flying by since I’ve been out on maternity leave. Little man is turning ONE month old tomorrow and is getting way too big too fast for my liking. I’m going to attempt to do a formal one month photo shoot but I’m not going to lie, one month is a super awkard age to shoot. I’m hoping to get some last sleepy shots so wish me luck!

So last week I met up with my sister and her family to do some quick family photos for them. I have loved doing their Christmas Card photos for the past few years and this year was no exception. The one thing I have missed while being on maternity leave is doing fall photos outside so I was excited to get some last week. My sister’s kids are always so well behaved they are a joy to photograph!

Hellooooo beautiful fall colors!

My favorite niece giving me a little sass.

Love afternoon fall light!

Mama & her girl.

Jack Jack, who is Carters BFF.

Mom & her boys.

Stay tuned for some new photos of my chubby Reed baby and next weekend we are headed to my Dad’s farm where I’ll be doing more Christmas Card photos! As much as I’m loving this time off I am excited to get back to work in January! :-)
