The Gift of Family

September 12, 2010

Sometimes things happen that remind you how much of a gift having your family is, and make you realize that you want to capture your time together.   This family came together for one such session, and we enjoyed the early morning hours of a beautiful day in downtown Vienna.    They were such a nice group to work with, and I love how great they look in their coordinating blues.

All Smiles and Hugs

I couldn’t have asked for more great attention from this little one-year-old this morning.  When I arrived mom and dad warned me that he was having a rough morning, but from the moment I pulled out the camera he had nothing but smiles and twinkling blue eyes for me  (well and some drool, too, LOL).

It was nice to finally meet this sweet little one-month-old.  Her mom wrote to me before my trip last month, and I’m glad we were still able to get some sweet sleepy newborn photos for her, as well as some wide eyes.   I love seeing the props that the parents bring to my sessions.  Today it was this adorable pettiskirt– I think she looks like such a doll in it!

What a perfect session to come back to after my vacation.  This little 2-week-old was so easy going, and his mom brought along the cutest hats for him to wear.    He even worked up some sleepy smiles for his first family photos.

Magical Vacation

September 1, 2010

There’s nothing more magical than sharing a vacation to Disney World with little kids.  I love that my girls are still young enough to want to dress up in fancy princess gowns in 90 degree weather, meet the “real” princesses, and dine in magical castles.

Evidence that I went one vacation, too….a rare photograph of photographer.   Here I am with my two little “Jessies”.   Their dresses were custom made by the wonderful Angela of Boutique Ollie Girl.

And I will leave you with our view of the castle from the top of the Contemporary Hotel.    It totally made it worth it to carry along my 70-200 mm lens.
