These two were so great to work with given that it was freezing outside and it had just snowed the previous day. Yes this was in October when mother nature decided it was time to throw everyone for a loop, have a good laugh, and then return to normal the next week. When we first started shooting Amanda was such a giggler. I don't think she was used to being treated like a star. After all, it probably feels strange to have someone follow you around like you're a famous celebrity all the …

Kasey + Jacob Engaged: Northern Virginia Photographer
Oh the story of these two is pretty juicy - at least it was to me :) So as I begin any session I usually ask my clients how the two met. I am a story person and I like to get to know my clients.

I hope these photos are always cherished as a remembrance of his 1st birthday. We started the session off with some formal portraits. Sweet big brother. Seriously, how fun does this look? I loved …

Old Town Family Session: Northern Virginia Photographer
Northern Virginia has an abundance of fun spots for a photo session and shooting in Old Town Alexandria is a well known favorite spot among area photographers. This family came from Maryland and was a joy to spend a Saturday afternoon with. It was nap time for the littlest one, but even with that, we were able to get some great pics and I am happy I was able to freeze this moment in time for this family. …
