Welcome Little Guy! {Washington DC Newborn Photography}

This mom contacted me after finding my information online. After I gave her my mailing address we realized we actually live 2 doors apart! I was very excited to meet this little guy and my new neighbor. He is sweet and curious and aced his first photo session. I look forward to watching him grow!

A New Family {Washington DC Family Photography}

I'm so glad this family contacted me to capture their new son. They had a beautiful home with a very bright guest room that made the perfect backdrop to the photo session. This little guy was so happy to look right at the camera and will make a wonderful future model! One of my favorite shots from the session was one of our last shots when the cat was checking her new brother out. I look forward to watching this sweet family grow.

Big Kids in the Garden {Washington DC Family Photography}

As I'm sure you've seen around here its usually tiny babies and toddlers. I rarely see teenagers so this was a lovely change of pace. They can stand still, take direction, and I didn't need to sing the Itsy Bitsy Spider. And this little girl had just lost her first tooth so it was fun to capture her new little smile. Thanks for a fun afternoon.

New Baby New Home {Washington DC Newborn Photography}

I already knew baby Z's parents but it was exciting to see this new family of three in their new home in DC. They had barely unpacked before she arrived but were happily settling into their new routine at only one week. She slept during the entire session and even when we tried to wake her to get one photo of her eyes, it could barely be done. I hope she always sleeps so soundly for them!

A New Baby Girl {Washington DC Newborn Photography}

I loved photographing sweet baby J in her Northern Virginia home. Her parents have designed a beautiful nursery and have a beautiful home but when she was fussy we decided to go outside and capture her  outdoors as well. Thanks for a wonderful morning!

Five Months Old {Washington DC Family Photography}

Sometimes babies just don't want to smile. Which is fine, except when parents want pictures of them smiling. Well, this little guy got the message and was one of the smiliest babies I've ever photographed. He was almost constantly smiling and giggled away at all my fake sneezing and weird noises. Their adorable and energetic pup added a whole level of fun to these photos. I loved photographing this family and am glad I got to capture them at this stage In their lives.

The Little Miracle Boy

This not-so-little newborn was very much wanted by his parents. You could tell how much they already adore him by the way they marveled at his ever coo. They have one of the most light-filled apartments I've ever seen in DC and it was a pleasure to photograph them in it. He was a doll, sleeping through almost the entire session. Congratulations on your new little miracle!

Beautiful Morning in DC {Washington DC Family Photographer}

This family might look familiar. I've been photographing these dear friends since this not-so-little guy was born. He's always had this huge smile with a great personality which makes it so fun to photograph him. It has been almost 2 years since I've had him in front of my camera and I was happy to see nothing had changed! We had perfect lighting that day with the early morning sun shining through in beautiful Bishop's Garden. All of this made for a beautiful morning.

 

Sleeping Baby {Washington DC Newborn Photographer}

There were so many things I loved about this session. The first is obviously the star of the show, sweet baby A. He slept literally the entire time I was there and could not have been better behaved for his first photo session. Of course in close second came his friendly and sweet parents. They have created a beautiful nursery full of natural light and I can tell what wonderful parents they already will be. I am not usually into props and stuffed animals but I am so glad we did this last shot with the stuffed animals. All credit goes to his mom on this one! Thanks for these great shots baby A!

Hello World {Washington DC Newborn Photography}

This is sweet baby H. I was very excited to meet him since I knew his parents before they even knew each other. He already has these big blue eyes which he was kind enough to show off only for the first few minutes and then went quietly to sleep for almost the rest of our time together. He already seemed so comfortable in his new home and I can't wait to watch him grow.
