Wow-we really lucked out! While usually January in Washington DC is very cold and no one would want to be outside more than you have to, this crazy weather we've had this year actually gave us a not too bad January afternoon. I loved capturing these dear friends and their spunky toddler. She quickly warmed up to the camera and was happy to play. Can't wait to meet their new little one soon!
This sweet family was the perfect sendoff to 2017. Their adorable toddler kept us all on our toes but was full of smiles and giggles. She showed me all of her tricks, we kicked a soccer ball, went on Dad's shoulders, and even played hide and seek. I was glad she was so comfortable in front of the camera and such a fun photo subject!
I loved meeting this family and one of DC's newest toddlers. He just turned one and was full of toddler curiosity and energy. He was very busy during out session running around and exploring and I am glad I was able to capture his curious personality. And of course who could not love those gorgeous blue eyes?
This is one of those families that I have had the pleasure of watching them grow. I met Mom and Dad when we did their maternity session and then got to photograph this little lady at her newborn session and now again that she is a full blown toddler. We lucked out with this fall weather and even when it started to rain it didn't stop the M family from having fun. Eventhough it took her a few minutes to warm up I was able to capture her sweet personality. I look forward to continuing to watch her grow!
This was one of my favorite photo sessions this year. I love finding new locations around DC to shoot in. Because a lot of the federal lands require permits, its sometimes hard to find good spots. Well this is definitely one of them. These kids were full of energy, full of personality, and didn't seem to mind the cold! I hope I was able to capture their fun energy.
This was one of my favorite sessions this fall. Two beautiful kids with laid back parents and beautiful fall weather to support all of this. What more could a photographer want? One of the best moments of this session is when toddler brother gave his sister a real and genuine hug, unprompted! Glad we were able to capture these little ones (and their parents) at such a fun age!
This mom is a sister of a friend and had contacted me wanting to capture her little guy in all his toddler joy. Well that we sure did. While he had a few rough falls during our session this didn't stop him from giving these great big smiles. I loved photographing this sweet family.
I photographed half this crew lsat year when they contacted me to photograph their then baby. This year she wanted to incorporate her brother and sister in law as well as their sweet 3 year old. While one little guy wasn't feeling great that day we still powered through and got some great shots of both boys. This is such a great idea to capture the whole family.
