I don’t usually offer family minisessions in the summer, but I found this amazing beach spot this year and just couldn’t keep it all to myself.  And, the university campus looked so pretty that I opened up some morning sessions there, too!  I could not be happier with the results!

This was the first year in which I specialized in maternity, birth, newborn, and baby portraiture.  The result was having to turn down family photography requests – the hardest were those clients who have used me in the past and wanted to return.  After looking over the family sessions I did in 2011, I wonder […]

Here’s your sneak peek – your gallery will posted in about a week!

FAQ’s: Who are these mini-sessions best for? These minis are only 20 minutes long, so they are best for families with 4 or fewer children.  We will not have time for individual portraits of each family member, siblings together, and full family shots. My priority will be full family portraits unless you indicate otherwise. These […]

I just had to sneak peek a few of these beautiful family photos from last night’s beach session.  It was a celebration – with 14 family members from Virginia and Canada (yep, our neighbor to the north!) celebrating these twins’ baptism weekend.  They are absolutely the cutest pair I’ve seen – well since my last […]

Ask any photographer and they will tell you that the more challenging ages to photograph children are about 3-4 months old and then about two years old.  This family session was double the challenge with BOTH those ages!   Now, I have a two year old who lives in my house, so I know exactly […]

Although I have decided not to schedule family sessions in the future, (as my focus has turned to maternity, birth, newborns and babies) I am always available for “my” families – those for whom I’ve photographed in the past.  Especially since, in many cases, I’ve photographed these babies from when they were in their mommies […]

It has been a VERY busy weekend, but I wanted to give a peek into the Mommy & Me Mini-Sessions from Saturday.  The weather was perfect and I think the most beautiful mothers in the area came out to meet me!  Here is just one from each:

You may have noticed a bit of change going on around the blog and Facebook page….my new logo design is nearly finished and I am SO excited to be re-branding with a focus on maternity, birth, and newborn photography!!  With this branding change, I am also changing a bit of my offerings and you’ll slowly […]
