Family Photos - Leesburg, VA

I chuckle to myself in disbelief as I write this because I have wanted to post these pictures for almost a year now.  The new year starts every January, but I feel like my new year has just begun.  I took these pictures last fall right when we found out I was expecting our second child.  Soon after, my morning sickness set in and didn't go away until our baby girl arrived.  It was a rough 9 months of feeling exhausted and sick and I was sad that it caused me to loose a bit of my passion for taking pictures.  I just couldn't keep up with an energetic toddler, the demands of pregnancy and posting photos I finally did get around to taking.  Now it's a year later and I figure it's better late than never and I want to share these pictures.  I really love these pictures but now I am looking forward to taking new family pictures as a family of four.

Family Session: Industrial Backgrounds - Reston, VA

What a wonderful family to photograph!  They have such great smiles and seem to enjoy their time together as a family.  I also loved all the textures that Reston had to provide.  It's exciting to find those backgrounds that have an interesting contrast like the brick siding next to the metal door.

Family Session: Farm Land - Leesburg, VA

There isn't much to not love about the setting for this family's photoshoot.  Green rolling hills, rolled bales of hay and a golden sunset. Add to that - adorable smiles, pinchable cheeks, a beautiful mama and you'll get some pretty great pictures!

Mother & Daughter Session: Spring Time - Aldie, VA

Last month, I found a gorgeous field of flowers nestled away on an awesome piece of property in Aldie.  With the land owner's permission, I was able to go onto the property and capture such beautiful pictures of Alexa and her adorable little girl.  Spring went by too quickly but I'm so thankful I was able to have this session before the flowers were gone.
