One Year Old Cake Smash Oh boy! This smiley, sweet guy is ONE.  That year went by at lightening speed.  I swear I just meet his parents for the first time in my brand new Pinehurst studio for his newborn session. Mr. C was one of my first newborn clients in my new studio space. […]

I think it’s safe to say this little guy is loved. His older sister couldn’t get enough of him and was the BEST helper while he was getting his Pinehurst Newborn Portraits. She gave him BIG snuggles and helped me with spotting during a few poses. I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to […]

Smiles.  I get them a lot with sitters, one year olds and older children, but not always with a newborn. As a Newborn Photographer in Washington, DC, I have found that it’s pretty much luck if I capture those sleepy smiles. I highly recommend my clients have a swaddle ready for the session. I love […]

Twins!  Can you imagine? Going from a couple to a family of four! Miss N and Miss O were an absolute dream during their twin newborn session. Miss O and Miss N were born a little early, so mom and dad waited a little longer to bring them to the studio for their session. This […]

C. Cups Cupcakery cupcakes to be precise. Dulce de leche, tiramisu, rock road, smores, nutter butter, red velvet, cookies & cream…and the list goes on and on. Cupcakes that not only look amazing, but taste it! You know you are getting something good when you see that pink box. Janell Canino, a mom of three, […]

Being a baby photographer can be so much fun! Especially when you get to work with happy, smiley one year olds like this guy. It has been such a joy capturing him throughout his first year.  J was a Watch Me Grow baby. He was the last baby I photographed in my old studio. See […]

Winner, winner chicken dinner! This gorgeous momma-to-be was the giveaway winner from the Baby Fair at Pinehurst Surgical in September. She decided to use her gift certificate towards the session fees for a maternity session and a newborn session. She wanted Pinehurst Maternity Portraits done in the studio and for them to be all about […]

The sitting stage is one of my absolute favorites!  I mean, I love a sweet smelling, squishy newborn, but come on, sitters have so much personality and they smile so big even when you just say their name. Being a Pinehurst studio photographer gives me the flexibility to do sessions in the studio when weather […]

A “city” can be the perfect spot for an urban family session. Aberdeen may not be a city, but it is the perfect spot! There are sidewalks, benches, colorful brick walls, fire escape stairs, and a train track that is not in use. (Please note that it is against the law to photograph on an […]

Birthdays…Milestones…Birthday Photography Every birthday is a Milestone. Those Milestones are fun to celebrate and capture when you are young, but maybe not so much as you get older.  After all, how many times can you celebrate the Milestone of turning 29!?! But, turing ONE, that’s a milestone worth celebrating and documenting. I first met Miss […]
