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.

Child Session: Apple Picking - Leesburg, VA

Fall is finally here and my family and I have been having so much fun finding fall activities around the area.  The other weekend, we took Chase apple picking...and what's a little apple picking without a mini session with mom!  Chase was only interested in taking the apples in and out of the bucket so I went with a few "action" shots.

Family Session: Precious Moments - Leesburg, VA

Once again, this little sweetheart turned on the charm and smiled for the camera!  She is such a delight to photograph and I love seeing the joy she brings her parents.  I'm so glad I had the opportunity to capture these precious moments.

Family Session: Beach Vacation - Kitty Hawk, NC

In September, my family and I took a nice, relaxing beach vacation in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.  It was absolutely gorgeous and exactly what we needed...to relax with our feet in the sand and a glass (ok maybe a few glasses) of wine.  The weather couldn't make up it's mind but luckily I was able to capture these precious moments during this gorgeous morning.
