I had the absolute honor (and joy!) of photographing this adorable new trio in Brookland. Baby M totally stole the show—she was awake, asleep, and somehow nailing every pose like she read the shot list ahead of time. A total pro. Her parents? Just as delightful. And don’t even get me started on their condo—sunlight for days and a nursery so cute it could have its own Instagram account. Washington, DC never looked so cozy!
This fam and I go way back—like, "tiny newborn in a swaddle" back. Their daughter (now a 5th grader?!) was one of the very first newborns I ever photographed, and yes, she was already serving cuteness and camera-ready vibes back then. Since then, I’ve had the joy of meeting her two little bros—each one bringing more adorable chaos than the last. The older siblings were so proud to show off their brand-new baby brother, and honestly, I think they might’ve been better photo assistants than me. Watching this family grow over the years has been such a treat, and getting to capture another sweet chapter in their Chevy Chase, MD home was the best.
What more could a newborn photographer hope for than a beautiful baby boy in a bright and warm nursery? This little guy and his fan club were so fun to photograph and chat with.
Well this little lady had changed quite a bit since her newborn session six months prior which she had mostly slept through. Now she is full of personality and smiles. People often ask what’s the best age to capture and I always feel six to eight months is key and she showed us why!
Could you imagine a happier one year old? And these were all before we watched her dig in to her first piece of cake ever! She was full of smiles despite the warm DC temperatures this August morning. I am so glad that her parents were able to capture this sweet stage.
This is my third session with this fun family and they get better each year. They are always dressed perfectly and are always full of personality and fun and funny stories to share. This year they even brought Grandma along to be in a few photos. I can’t wait until our next photo session together.
I had photographed part of this extended family earlier this year but now that they have a new addition they wanted to do an extended family session including their sister who also lives here in Washington DC, and their parents who flew in. This fall morning was a perfect backdrop for these two sisters and their beautiful families.
I started photographing this family when these twin boys were just newborns. I have loved watching them grow. This time we were able to include their new baby brother who was just as special and fun as them! They kept me on my toes and were full of fun.
This little boy got an A+ for his first newborn session. He lives in a well-lit apartment with his parents in Washington DC. He was the perfect combo-alert and calm. We were even able to get a few photos on his balcony. I hope he continues to be so calm and sweet.
Like so many new parents in Washington DC, these new parents were unsure if they should do newborn photos. Its hard to get yourself and your home together and feel your best so soon after giving birth. And I totally understand this. However I am so glad they did these photos and so were they! They now will have these forever to remember these days that are a blur. I am so glad they’ll have these forever.
