Expecting Parents | Northern Virginia Maternity Photographer

I met these two loves when the moved in next door to us almost 4 years ago. We were so excited to see a young couple move in and were hopeful at the possibility that they might actually be our friends. I shouldn’t have worried. These two are so friendly and sweet and just a beautiful pair of souls who were so obviously in love. Hours spent by their pool way too late into the night we became fast friends. So, when I had to tell them that we were moving I nearly cried.

Sweet little E's daddy is a bit of a Star Wars nut. I asked her mommy if they had any plush Star Wars characters and she confessed she only had a few. Well, daddy fixed that right away and came home with the entire collection for our session:)

Did you know that spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is the #1 genetic cause for death in infants. Or that 1 in 10,000 babies will be born with SMA and it shows no preference for gender or race.

A new little brother | Ashburn Newborn Photographer

He was sweet and sleepy and so adorable. When I arrived I was greeted by his very enthusiastic sister and their pup. I stopped to talk with her for a bit and before long we were best friends. She was a very helpful big sister while I was working with her little brother.

Sophie is 9 – A Camping Themed Birthday!

by LindsayUpdated on December 23, 2015June 8, 2015

I love birthday parties! What’s not to like? Good food, fun games, and sugar!! But, you know how it goes. You plan and plot and scour the internet (or your own head if you’re one of the lucky few with that creative gene) for ideas. In some cases planning your child’s birthday is right on par with planning your wedding when it comes to how much we stress. Then, as the event unfolds – everything is perfect but you’re so wrapped up in execution (and hopefully enjoying your event) that you forget to take any pictures of your hard work. Well, don’t let that happen to you. Hand off the camera to a friend or family member and make them the designated picture taker!

I was happy to be that designated picture taker for Sophie’s party! Her mom did an awesome job on all the details of her camping themed party – from lakes side setting to the fleece blanket favors to the s’mores cupcakes and the wooden cake tree (Homegoods is your friend!). She even had a few little a-frame tents set up for decorations. The whole thing looked like it stepped straight out of a magazine!

Judging by how fast my kids crashed after they got home (we only came home as the sun was setting!) I think a great time was had by all!
