Oh my, this little squishable sweet guy was a perfect angel for his session, sleeping through many different setups.  His mama was also so cute, had great ideas, and you would never know she just had a baby!
It was great seeing you guys again H family, congratulations!!!

Cecelia at 6 weeks

When I did Cece’s newborn session, we decided to do an additional outdoor session soon after.  As our crazy lives would have it, it took us WEEKS to do the 2nd session.  Here she is at 6 weeks old, adorable and chubby, but still smaller than my kids were when they were born! 
(in case anyone...

19 day old Connor

I’ve been waiting a while to meet this little guy.  He had a bit of a rough start but is home and doing great now!  At almost 3 weeks old and 5 lbs 11 oz, he slept soundly for his modeling debut. (yay!)  He looks like he fits just perfectly in at home with mom...

One week old newborn Ariela [northern virginia newborn photographer]

Ariela’s mama contacted me after she was born and I was able to squeeze them in since they live very close to me.  She was the perfect model, settled easily and slept soundly. What a precious little girl!
It was so nice to meet you G family, congratulations and enjoy your sneak peek!

15 day old newborn Alex [northern virginia newborn photographer]

Eyelashes.  I could just say that and nothing else for this sneak peek lol.  Sweet Alex was a dream for 15 days old (which is “old” by newborn session standards by the way hehe).  I spent this rainy morning with Alex and his lovely family and captured some sweet moments that I can’t wait to...

Gorgeous 4 day old Lily Elizabeth [northern virginia newborn photographer]

I’m a tad behind in blogging, only because I like to blog same/next day, but I’m catching up!  This little lady decided to delay her arrival by 11 days but she was oh-so worth the wait! Gorgeous hair and skin, a little chub, and content demeanor- what a sweetie!
It was great to meet you S...

12 day old Cecelia Genevieve [newborn photographer]

I’m a little swamped right now, so I’ll forego my usual witty/interesting narrative (haha yeah right) and just say that I love this baby. She’s my bff Rebekah’s new baby girl and she came into the world a little early (at 4lbs 14 oz), but very perfect.  For those of you that have followed my...

4 week old newborn Nate [northern virginia newborn photographer]

This handsome little guy had some trouble after he was born and it took him a few weeks to come home, but thankfully he’s now home relaxing and snuggling with his family.  Nate is such a gorgeous baby, I love his hair and eyebrows and lips, and his sweet demeanor as well!
Congratulations E family, I’m...

13 day old Kaylah [northern virginia newborn photographer]

I was honored today to photograph the new baby girl of a dear friend (and fellow photographer).  Stacy drove 2 hours today to visit me and another local photographer friend of ours.  Baby Kaylah was amazingly cooperative for both sessions!  What a sweet little peanut, and the best part was that I got to cuddle...

2 week old newborn Leah [northern virginia newborn photographer]

Who says 2 week olds don’t sleep well for newborn sessions?  Leah was awake and content when I arrived and after a snack, crashed hard for the rest of her session.  What a sweet little peanut, love her hair and lips!
It was so nice meeting you R family, hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

18 month old Ella [stafford virginia baby photographer]

I’ve so enjoyed watching this doll grow up and being the family photographer (even for their wedding, remember?). And despite the fact that she has to warm up to me every single session (except her newborn session because she was asleep haha), and gives me really mean looks at times, we always manage to get...

5 day old newborn Wes [northern virginia newborn photographer]

Ohhhhh this guy was so easy and sweet and squishy, I seriously just wanted to put my camera down and snuggle with him on the couch!  Photographing newborns definitely gives me my baby fix since I’m DONE having my own, but I still get that pang now and then, there’s nothing like bringing a new...

2 week old newborn Julia [northern virginia newborn photographer]

I spent the morning with sweet little Julia, who was very mild mannered but definitely wanted to hang out rather than sleep for modeling.  She was such a cutie- I love that 2 week olds are starting to put on some weight and she also had the most perfect skin! It was great to meet...

10 day old newborn Chloe [northern virginia newborn photographer]

Gorgeous little Chloe gave me a run for my money this morning as she had no intentions of sleeping for her pictures.  She wasn’t even that fussy, just restless and stirring and not wanting to give up for sleepy shots. Mom & I hung in there though and eventually baby slipped off into sweet dreams. ...

10 day old newborn Ethan [wooodbridge virginia newborn photographer]

Introducing Ethan- this little dude came late, over 9 lbs, and then gave his parents a little scare with a short NICU stay, but now he’s home and doing great!  This was a special session because Ethan’s daddy is in the Air Force and was only home for a short time- he’s leaving tonight again...

2 years ago I photographed newborn baby Aspyn so it was such a pleasure yesterday to do a session with her new baby sister.  Ayla was a dream model so we got many great shots! Aspyn is such a proud big sister and was so cooperative for a two year old!
Congratulations C family, what a...

5 day old Owen [warrenton virginia newborn photographer]

Today I met Owen, he came a couple of weeks early and I was happy to get to do his session before my vacation.  He was soooo easy going that I got a ton of great shots and had a really hard time narrowing down to a few for the sneak peek.
Congratulations R family, Owen...

2 week old Aila [northern virginia newborn photographer]

Whenever I photograph a baby over 2 weeks old, I plan on a longer session since it often takes longer to get baby into a deep sleep for the “sleepy/curly” shots.  Aila (LOVE her name!) however, decided that since she was up ALL night, she’d succumb to my magic “butt pat” and crash, and was...

3 week old Max [virginia newborn photographer]

I spent yesterday afternoon with this little guy and his wonderful parents.  (Love his name by the way, it was one on our list of names for our son!) He decided to stay awake and fuss off and on for much of his session even though he normally sleeps all day- he just wanted to...
