Lucky 7 | Virginia Baby Photographer

Technically he’s 7.5 months now, but I haven’t had a chance to blog these yet and I will blame that on shooting 5 sessions a week.

Reed is 7 months old and I swear he gets cuter and cuter every day. This month might be my favorite so far, he sleeps through the night every night and is super happy when he’s awake. His newest skill is getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth. He’s *this* close to crawling and I predict he’ll be doing it within the next week.

He’s also babbling, we are heaing a lot of dadadadadadadadada so I assume that his first word will be Dada.

He has the cutest laugh and is super ticklish. His big brother makes him laugh all the time and my heart explodes watching Carter and Reed crack up.

At our pediatrician appointment last Monday he weighed 20 pounds, 11 ounces and was 29 1/4 inches long. He’s a big, growing boy who loves to eat. Pears are his favorite but he also loves banana chunks, sweet potatoes, and puffs. He’s getting pretty good at self feeding and I think we’ll be on table foods soon.

He’ll also eat grass and weeds.

That little butt chin gets me every time.

Big brother has been busy this month playing soccer! He’s loving it and I’m loving being a soccer Mom. ;-)

I’m looking forward to a fun summer with these boys, less than a month until we leave for our 2 week vacation at the beach!

Brothers | Northern Virginia Child Photographer

These two came by the studio this morning and brightened my day. There is nothing more awesome than a bond between brothers and these two were so sweet together.

This little dude is 3 years old and I had so much fun with him.

And here’s his baby brother who recently turned one.

I love these shots, it makes me realize how short the “baby” phase is and how quickly he will lose those chubby baby cheeks and legs and will be a full blown toddler. Ah, next time my baby wakes me in the middle of the night I’m going to spend extra time rocking him because this all goes by way too fast.

Such a handsome little man.

Cutie pie!

L family, it was so great spending time with you this morning. Hope you enjoy your long weekend!

Feisty & New | Ashburn Virginia Newborn Photographer

This little one was so sweet and loved being snuggled. At two weeks old, he was one of the most alert little ones I’ve photographed but, we got some amazing shots nonetheless.

How cute is this new family?!

I kind of wish I looked this good after I gave birth.

Sweet little Andrew, he did sleep for a little bit. ;-)

Little sack of potatoes.

Congratulations M & J, I enjoyed spending time with you all today!

3 Weeks New | Reston Virginia Newborn Photographer

I was so excited to finally meet this adorable little girl. At 3 weeks old she was a little “older” than a lot of my newborns but she was absolutely the perfect little model for her first photo session.

Happy girl.

Love that spiky hair.

It’s so funny, after having a month straight of newborns a few weeks ago, now I’ve been photographing a ton of newborn girls.

She is so loved by her big sister.

Congratulations M family, she’s perfect!
