Newborn Photography: Christmas Blessings

Had the great pleasure of photographing this beautiful family as they welcomed a newborn son to the world.  He's just eleven days young!!!  Also want to take a moment to thank everyone for all the support this last year. 
The studio will be on limited hours between now and January 3rd.  We have very limited openings, mostly reserved for Boutique Petite sessions and newborns, so contact the studio as soon as possible to see what's still available.
It's been a great 2017 and we're looking forward to welcoming 2018!

High school seniors are so much fun to photograph! As the weather gets cooler, i've been scheduling as many seniors as possible to get that last bit of Autumn color!  If you weren't able to get on the schedule this month, no worries, the studio has many lovely backdrops of all kinds/styles...and it's warm =)  We look forward to working with you soon!

This Beautiful Princess came back to the studio for the third time, but for this session she brought her 9 day old baby sister!  The studio is currently booking into the winter and we have several openings left for Christmas portraits.  As always we thank you for your support and look forward to working with you!

Semper Fidelis!: Family Portraits in Woodbridge, VA

I had the great honor of photographing this family, with both mother and father serving in the Marines.  It was a joy to capture some special moments for them.  If you serve in the military and are looking for some fun AND more formal portraits, contact the studio today to book your photo session.  We look forward to hearing from you!

What to Wear for a Photo Session!

One of the most frequently asked questions i receive is 'what should I wear?' I thought a few examples might be helpful for those planning to book their sessions in the coming days. Basic rule of thumb is to mix patterns, textures and solids that incorporate similar colors, without being all 'matchy-matchy'. Here are some ideas! Fall portrait sessions are booking now!

The navy blue compliments this sweet boy very well, and is a nice contrast to the pattern and texture of his shorts.

With a beautiful, large family, it can be a challenge to figure out what everyone should wear! This family pulled it off perfectly with a great mix of patterns and solids that pull together wonderfully!

 I love that this couple mixed up the red, white, and blue with various patterns in the shirt, flag scarf and bright red solid. It came together perfectly!

Love the vibrant pattern and classic look this couple put together. Perfect!

Winter Portraits

The old year has passed, and the studio is already buzzing in early 2017!  Since i continue to be a bad sporadic blogger, i will be sharing some sessions that i've never gotten around to posting, in addition to my latest work.
The 'birthday' session below was one of the last ones of 2016.  It's a family i've had the joy to photograph several times over the last few years.  Enjoy!
