Christmas is here! - Child Photography Session: Leesburg, VA

What's Christmas without a little candy bribery?!  Yes, I bribed my child with a big yummy candy cane in order to get these adorable pictures.  I couldn't resist!  Something tells me he has a sweet tooth like his mommy!  I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and make sure to capture those sweet moments with your family.

Family Session: Sauvie Island - Portland, OR

Over the summer, I visited my family in Oregon and had the chance to take my sister's family photos.  My sister and I both love rustic shabby chic, so we went on a little adventure to find a rustic country setting.  Lucky for us, Sauvie Island provided endless farmland and gravel roads, and the setting sun couldn't have been more picturesque. 

Creative Portrait Session: Alice in Wonderland - Leesburg, VA

I always have a tendency to go a bit overboard for Halloween and this year was certainly no exception.  I couldn't help myself (and my husband had no choice) but I had to get pictures of our costumes, especially after the time I spent sewing everything together.  The gardens at Oatlands served as the perfect backdrop for this shoot.  I even felt in character as Alice chasing the White Rabbit!  I hope you enjoy the little adventure below.

Family Session: Kai's 1st Birthday - Leesburg, VA

I had a lot of fun photographing the Gibson family and I loved all their smiles!  Kai was so adorable and so fun to watch him destroy his birthday cake!  I love the charm of the old buildings and the simplicity of the grassy meadow that was captured in this session.

Newborn Session: Sabeer - Ashburn, VA

Tiny little hands, itty bitty little feet and the sweetest little guy!  Sabeer melted my heart when I met him.  He must have known I was coming because he didn't want to miss a moment of his photoshoot!  Luckily, once he was wrapped up and cozy, he drifted off to sleep and I was able to snap a few sleepy baby pictures.
