This sweet babe was a long awaited arrival. It was fun to get status reports and calls from her mom updating me on the fact that she wasn't here yet. It reminded me of how I felt with my first child. It seemed to drag on forever. Even though she greeted the world a little late, she was so welcomed and is very much loved. This session came as a gift from one of my clients and I thought it was such a unique and memorable gift and it was a treat to spend the day with them. Please leave …

Double the delight: Northern Virginia Newborn Photographer, Multiples
Spring has been a time for newborns and I have certainly had my share with more coming to the blog soon. I always admire mothers of multiples because I can imagine that with two babies, it's a lot to juggle.

I have a confession, this was my first time photographing multiples. I was very excited to do it but also a little curious as to how I would direct the shoot.

In the end, I am in love with these photos. I love the newness of the babies and am truly in awe of their parents and the fortitude they must have to simply keep on with life when …
