Make These Moments Last a Lifetime | Northern VA Maternity and Newborn Photographer

in , , , ,

I have never found inspiration in simply taking a pretty picture. Instead, my true source of inspiration is knowing that these are the images you will look on again for years to come. When your baby graduates high school. At their wedding. When they have children of their own. When we are all old and gray and our faces are full of wrinkles, I know that you will have these images to help you tell stories from when you were young. My goal is never to create something for your friends and family on social media. It’s to create something for you. To help you remember a collection of moments over the years, that you can look back on over and over again.

Waiting for Baby Number Four | Loudoun County Maternity Photographer

in

There are few higher professional honors than to hold a session for a fellow photographer. Kate is a photographer herself and I’ve gotten to know her over the last several years. I first met her for her newborn session for baby #3 (you can see more of those images here). More recently she visited me in the studio again for a maternity session while she waits for baby #4.

Here are some of my favorite images from our session together - enjoy!

Washington DC Maternity and Pregnancy Photographer | Baby on the Way

in ,

With maternity sessions, I often find myself trying to give my clients what I wish I had from my own pregnancy. Just as I was planning my own maternity portraits, I was interrupted by pre-term labor that kept in the hospital for a week, and then on bedrest for almost three more. I didn’t have the opportunity to capture my pregnancy in the way I wanted to, and I so wish I had. I wish I had images like these to remember that time by. I wish I had images to remind me of what that time was like. And while my body felt different and new and unsure, it was also miraculous and amazing and wonderful. I was so thrilled to photograph Ayanah for her maternity portraits, here are some of my favorites from our session - enjoy!

2019 Motherhood Event | Northern VA Family Photographer

in , , ,

This year’s Motherhood Event has now come and gone, such a bittersweet feeling for me. Sweet because I adore it, but now I have to wait a full year to do it again! It’s such a joy getting to meet with clients again, see how their babies have grown, and capture images of them together.

No matter the session or time of year, capturing mothers with their babies is so important to me. I know how difficult it can be to get images of you with your child. Mothers are often the ones taking the photos in their family, so they can’t get in them too. But our children crave images with us in them. They want to see us represented in our family history. That’s why this event speaks to me.

It was an honor and a joy to see so many families again. I can’t wait until next year!
