Baby on the Way! - Northern Virginia Maternity

August 31, 2009 – 11:36 pm

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting an awesome couple that are soon-to-be new parents. Most of my friends will tell you that I can be extremely silly and with these two I felt right at home - we had so much fun and I think I laughed the entire duration of the session.  I can tell that they are going to WONDERFUL parents to their baby girl on the way! Hope you enjoy the sneak peek!

I do ask people dance at sessions sometimes….lol

doesn’t she have the cutest little belly?

Sometimes I even ask my clients to sit on sewers!!! LOL - thought this was fun though

Glowing - Maryland Newborn Photographer

You know it is a fun session when you drive by an abandoned tv on the side of the road and say outloud “we have to pull over and take pictures of you by the tv” and mom-to-be doesn’t even blink an eye. :o)  So yep it is rather random, but the crazy photographer in me absolutely could not pass that moment up!  I had so much fun with this gorgeous mama yesterday.  I have so many favorites - these are only a couple! I know you have been patiently waiting Angie so here they are… enjoy!

A couple from her house

And the rather random tv picture - but isnt she a super model!

And from the field I want to marry :o) And yes, I know, I can not marry a field. But if I could, it would be this one :o)

And this one is so much fun - I love it. I previously have shot a family using the chalk writing on the asphalt, but was inspired recently by an amazing photographer to do the same for the maternity session.

Beautiful Mama! | Northern Virginia Maternity Photographer

January 19, 2009 – 12:25 am

Yesterday morning I had the pleasure of shooting maternity portraits for this beautiful mother-to-be. It seems like the first time she contacted me was an eternity ago!  Well she was just as sweet as she seemed in our ongoing string of emails back and forth and it was nice to finally meet her and her family. Little A is just gorgeous and I loved her little personality - she reminded me so much of my two year old!

J and A - I hope you like like this sneak peek. I am so glad that you decided to maternity portraits to capture this special time. Before you know it, you will be a family of four!

Gorgeous Little A!!!

Also, I wanted to say a special thanks to J’s Aunt and Uncle for their hospitality.  Our session took place at their gorgeous home in Bethesda (as J&A’s brand new house is being built right now).  The house was built in 1903 and the architectual details were stunning! The house was decorated with the most beautiful antiques in every area of the house. Well for good reason - J’s Aunt owns an antique store in Georgetown called River House Antiques.  I can’t wait to take a trip to check it out.  With her attention to detail exhibited in her house,  I am sure it is an awesome antique store! And….. the bread was soo yummy - I ate it on my way home. Thanks again :o)

J & A - I cant wait to meet your new addition soon!

Glowing! | Md Maternity Newborn Photographer

November 4, 2008 – 10:38 pm

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)

Feel Good Story-Surprise Proposal

July 11, 2008 – 12:32 am

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….

down on one knee

 

Bruce did GOOD!!!
