Centreville Family Photographer - Big Sister!

I have had the pleasure of photographing this little one twice now and let me tell you what a difference a year makes! Last time we met down on Capital Hill and had a fun time but those smiles were few and far between. Now this year, I think we hit a record for smiles and laughter. We had so much fun!

I also got to photograph her mommy to help make the announcement that "L" is going to be a big sister. How exciting!

I saved this post in honor of the fact that her birthday is today and she is turning three years old! Happy birthday "L"! I hope we get to see you again soon!

Dinner Light {Dorie Howell Kids}

Sometimes the best pictures are taken by grabbing the camera, subject and going out and standing on the front lawn right before dinner. No special set-up, outfit, or even too much thought, just taking advantage of a few minutes of time to document a fun afternoon. That is what this shot is about. Five minutes before dinner on a Saturday afternoon I looked at Miss M and said, "you want to go take some pictures?" Next thing you know we were out in the front yard standing by a pretty tree having a great time. Capturing life's beautiful little moments. What could be better than that?

Senior Soccer {Mclean, Great Falls, Vienna Photographer}

This afternoon I hung out with some Seniors from a local high school. They are all on the varsity soccer team and graduating this year. Their coach contacted me about doing a special session for them. I happily agreed. Here is your sneak peek ladies. Thanks for the great afternoon. Best of luck with the rest of your year!

Snow Day! {Family Photography}

We have been waiting for the snow to arrive here for several weeks. It has been cold, cold, cold but no white stuff. Well this morning we woke up to a light dusting on the ground and we took the opportunity to go outside and enjoy it.
