    Fairfax, VA Newborn Session: Baby N

    This babe was born the night the Caps won the Stanley Cup. She was already present (but nobody knew!) the last time I photographed this awesome family, and I can’t thank the stars enough for clients who invite me to photograph their family’s growth. Baby N’s big brother was the perfect crescendo to every lull,…

    Newborn: Baby L

    Baby L is so loved. What I felt during this session: L’s mom and dad are SO supportive of each other. Now is the time to frickin stick close together, people; those early days and the sleep-deprivation-induced delusion are not easy. You guys are doing it right! L is so content just to be close…

  • Newborn: Baby A, 2 weeks old

    I incorporate a few poses into my newborn sessions, even though I’m not primarily a posed photographer. I bring a few props (baskets, blankets, floor drop), but I love to use what parents have on hand for dressing and swaddling. I feel like this ensures that the poses and the look are natural. Years from…

    Newborn: Baby M

    I really love last minute bookings, especially when it means being able to spend time with a new baby. Baby M’s red hair and sweet expressions melted me! Big brother J’s liveliness was just the best next to his sleepy new sister and had my face aching from all the smiling. The early days with…

  • Newborn: Baby A

    Baby A was fairly sleepy during my visit, waking just a couple of times to protest not being held close enough. What a sweetheart. Sleeping through his big brother’s gymnastics and keyboard-playing, completely oblivious to all the toy cars crashing into each other, and the chatter of his family. Also of note: babies look SO…

  • Newborn: Baby R

    I won’t go deep into my beliefs here; you definitely didn’t sign up for that kind of thing this morning. But, I will say. Some of these photos really tugged at this feeling I’ve had where, I’ve known my children always, and they knew me. I’ll stop there, because it’s an interesting rabbit hole that…

  • Newborn: Baby E

    I write this post in silence. Well, minus the air conditioning’s (loud) whisper, the fridge’s humming, the dog licking her paws, and the house creaking when the wind blows. Finally, a comfortable day in NOVA, when the temperature has not risen to 80, in late September. These photos of Baby E were taken and processed…

  • Newborn: Baby W

    Pilar and Jarad invited me to their Leesburg, VA home to photograph an early day with their brand new love, baby W. The morning was filled with the dynamics of baby W’s newborn squeaks, big brother L’s feet on the hard wood and up the stairs, Pilar reading Spanish out loud for L, Pilar soothing…

  • Newborn: Baby R

    I love my drives out to Leesburg; changes of scenery are important for sanity, in my opinion. Driving west every so often is necessary, and this newborn session was the perfect reason. Baby R’s mom and dad are so deeply in love with her. This 4th of July baby had a tummy ache for a…

  • Newborn: Baby N

    Baby N is a beautiful, content, new little guy. “Calm” is the word I chose to describe this family’s home, just a month after N joined his parents. I love speaking with new parents about the transition to becoming a larger family. Even when N’s parents told me about the not-so-glamorous aspects of their new…
