Maryland Newborn Identical Twin Photographer – Madison & Mackenzie

Identical twin girls Madison & Mackenzie are cute as buttons!  At 18 days old and just 5 + pounds, they are still teeny tiny!  Their different personalities are already evident, but hopefully they will grow up to be the best of friends.  I had so much fun photographing them, and using some of the smallest hats that my mom made.  She crocheted matching hats just for them too. Congratulations Marie and Wesley on your darling girls!

Extra hands were needed to help with posing, so a huge thank you to Christine for her assistance with the pictures!

River Farm Wedding published on Valley & Co. Wedding Blog – Amanda & Jon

River Farm in Alexandria Virginia is one of my most favorite wedding venues, and I enjoy shooting multiple weddings there each year.  Amanda and Jon’s wedding was extra special, partly because of the 110 degree temperatures, but mainly because of the team behind the day.  We all throughly enjoyed seeing the gorgeous details come together while witnessing Amanda and Jon’s joy on their big day. As a wedding photographer, the privilege of capturing happiness never gets old.  Click here to see the whole post with lots more pictures from Amanda and Jon’s summer garden wedding.

Washington DC Cherry Blossom Pictures 2011

Every season is beautiful, but there is something extra heavenly about spring and the cherry blossoms in Washington, DC.   I can never get enough, I try to soak them in to last all year.  They are like puffy clouds of pink and white happiness, and are a beautiful experience.  I’m so thankful God made such lovely little blossoms for us to enjoy!

Alexandria Portrait Photography – TaShika

TaShika has such amazing natural beauty and a smile that lights up a room!  It’s a joy to photograph her and we had such fun with an outdoor photo shoot in Alexandria, VA this time.  The umbrellas were brought for props, but when a few rain drops started falling, I though we may actually need them.  Fortunately, it didn’t rain much and we were able to finish the shoot at TaShika’s favorite spot on the Potomac River near Old Town Alexandria.
