HIP Studio MINI Sessions to Support Lara’s League in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer

Giving back to the community in which we live is not only a personal commitment but a business responsibility in which I take very seriously. Lara’s story hits particularly close to home and I am proud to support her team in reaching their fundraising goal. To read about this 37 year old mother of two’s journey, click below:

3 weeks new! | Reston Newborn Photographer

This little bundle was so sweet and adorable– but she sure let me know when I did something she didn’t like. I work with newborns quite a lot and this little gal had a distinct little shriek. Every time she did it, I couldn’t help but giggle. Partially because it sounded so cute and partially because I could only imagine how that little shriek would multiply in magnitude through the years. I really enjoyed hanging out with this family yesterday– so calm and laid back– just a joy to be around! I hope you enjoy the sneak peek!

And one more with the eyes wide open!

Rockin’ in 2010!

This little man was determined to arrive in 2009! Born on December 31, 2009 at 10:00 pm, Mr. T did not want to miss a party! A very tired Mom and Dad warned me that their baby was not a sleeper and did not like to be naked. I was prepared to photograph a completely clothed and bright eyed little guy…. but this is what we got.

To be fair, we did have the room temperature cranked up to about 100 degrees and he had been awake all morning! He was such a trooper and so very handome! I hope I tired him out during my time visiting so that Mom could get a few hours of zzz’s! Thank you so much for sharing your little guy with me– he is truly precious!

So excited to share this session. Here we have the most adorable little girl with these gorgeous blue eyes. She was visiting with her adoring grandmother for the week and popped in for a session to surprise mom for Christmas. I’m a little biased, but I can’t think of a better gift. They are little for such a short period of time. The ability to bottle that up and save it forever is priceless in my book!

Some cute little pumpkins!

Can you tell that I am a little behind from the blogging perspective? These photos were taken a little before Thanksgiving– wow does that time between Thanksgiving and Christmas go fast! So even though this is a catch up post and nothing new for my dear clients (who have long since previewed the gallery and placed their order)– here we go!
