Well you know if you're getting married that it's a given that you will spend more time on your wedding than on any other day getting ready for it.

Winter “We are never, ever, ever, getting back together!”: Virginia Family Photographer
Winter that's it! I've had enough of you so I've decided we're through. I'm moving on to spring and and dreaming of warmer days. Can you believe this was just the week before last? I'll admit I was grateful to enjoy watching my boys make a snowman; something they weren't able to do earlier in the season.

Happy Birthday Miss “E”: Loudoun Baby Photographer
This sweet girl is so adorable and is probably the most subdued and quiet baby I have come across. I am sure her mom would tell me she is totally different around her two older sisters. She just turned one and to mark the occasion we did a photo shoot. She has the most calming blue eyes. This is the third time I've photographed her since she was born and if she is anything like her sisters, she will be not only beautiful but so much fun as well. Enjoy! Look at her on the right as a …
