Tammy & Steve - Love Shoot

I had a fabulous time yesterday morning with Tammy, Steve and their dog Patches. They were so much fun and willing to do or try anything. Tammy has a smile that can light up a room (and not to mention a rockin bob that you might see me trying to sport soon!) and Steve is super laid back. Both of those qualities made it a joy to shoot them.

What is a Love Shoot you may ask? A Love Shoot is shot just like an engagement session. This couple happens to already be married! Love Shoots can be done whether your married or not and just because you feel like it :o) We decided to go to a couple of locations that have some significance to them - two places that they frequent on almost a daily basis and we couldnt have chosen a better day. It was gorgeous outside (although it did get a bit warm towards the end!) I had a blast - I hope you enjoy your sneak peek - there are sooo many more great ones in your gallery!

Patches was just tooo cute!

Oh I had so much fun with this wonderful couple this past weekend. They are expecting their first child and are absolutely positively going to be the best parents! How do I know this? Well…. they are already wonderful godparents to one of my best friend’s son. But more importantly, you can see how much they love each other, how exciting this time is for them and how much they can’t wait to meet thier little one.

On a side note, my computer went kaputz the other night. I had only edited a couple of pictures from the session. Thankfully, I saw this was coming and had purchased another computer. No files were lost, but right now I do not have the ability to work on this session any more for a couple of days… BUT I just wanted to share the few that I had edited.

I had soo much fun! Thanks T&T for such a fun time :o)

I saw this bench when we first got to National Harbor. Just had to take a pic with the turtles - I love the piers and flags behind them. If you have not been to National Harbor yet, you should check it out!

I have so many more favs for you all to see! Hope you enjoy :o)

All boys!

I have to say this morning’s session just made me smile. These two little ones were the definition of ALL BOY! For the first half of the session I don’t think they even noticed me because they were having so much fun. Thank you to Mom for letting me drag you and your little ones around Reston & Herndon. If anyone in the area has a free minute, check out Frying Pan Park. One of the goats just had a kid named Broolyn. Take care mom - hope you enjoy the sneak peek.

This is the DEFINITION of BROTHERS to me! I love their interaction :)

 

 

Feel Good Story-Surprise Proposal

Ok - sometimes I get a little down listening to the news and all that is going on in the world today.  But this story is just too happy, too magical, too wonderful not to share. I was asked by Fairfax Corner Shopping Center to do a unique shoot. An Engagement Shoot - Not and E-Session, but an actual shoot where there is a surprise proposal. Well you can guess I jumped on this.

Well let me explain that Bruce had contacted the shopping center a couple of weeks earlier to advise them of his plan and to get a little help playing out the surprise proposal to Melissa. Well come to today, the ipod qued, their song played, a proposal was made, and a yes was said. Seriously, I don’t think their was a dry eye in the fountain plaza. Melissa you have one heck of a man. He went above and beyond and you can tell how much he loves you. Congratulations to the both of you - I am so happy to have shared in such a special moment with you.

While anxiously awaiting for Bruce and Melissa we watched the kids frolic in the fountain….

Bruce did GOOD!!!

 

 

Oh Happy Days!!!

Well my oldest daughter is completely happy now!

All due to a new do!  She has been begging me for months to have her hair cut. She wanted it to her chin. Anyone that has seen a picture of my daughter will see that is A LOT of curls gone. But she has begged and begged with all her 7 year old heart. Last night I gave in…I started to cut. Really I didnt mean to cut THAT much but by the time i got to the other side of her hair, it was apparent i had gotten shorter and shorter. Well I straightened it out and she couldnt be happier! And that makes me smile :)

So here she is in her newfound glory!!!

Can you tell she loves it??? LOL!
