Elsie & Finley - Alexandria Event Photographer

What a wonderful day for the Fisher Family - Finley was baptized and Elsie had her 2nd birthday party!

Little Miss Finley was exhausted at her baptism, I think she knew she had a party later in the day and needed a cat nap :) Elise had fun all day long, playing peek-a-boo over the church pew and then digging in to her birthday cake and presents at her party. Fun was had by all!

Spencer & Libby - Your girls are beautiful, simply precious. Thanks again for allowing me to capture these important events in your life. Enjoy...

Alan 9 Months - Alexandria Child Photographer

Alan...oh Alan, how did you get SO big, SO fast!! I swear it was just last week I was at your house taking your newborn photos...

I was so glad Kendra and Greg wanted to capture a few photos of Alan before his first birthday session in November, because he is just too cute now to let these memories pass by! He was all smiles and loved when we put him on the ground, so he could try and pick up every little speck that he could find. His crawl was so adorable, I don't know how his knees weren't all scratched up, but he moved quick even though he was doing the army crawl!

Kendra & Greg - thanks so much for being flexible on fitting this session in - I think you'll agree it was totally worth it! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Ben - Alexandria Newborn Photographer

There are many elements of meeting new clients that are a mystery until I show up to their session - I discuss a lot of things with my clients, but sometimes you don't know how things will be until you meet.

One main thing with newborn sessions is the setting - they are almost always taken in the parents home and though I will bring my props to each session it is nice to have some things to use that are the clients as it makes the session a little more personal and unique.

When I pulled up to Lisa and Dan's house I wasn't sure what to expect - it was a beautiful old building in Old Town Alexandria - GORGEOUS - but who knew what laid inside. From the moment I walked in I knew this session was going to be amazing - not only did they have one of the cutest boys in the world, they had a super awesome old carriage type home with exposed brick, old beams, amazing furniture and tons of character. Ah-mazing.

So the wave of baby boys continues with Ben - he was such a sweetheart. He slept, was awake and was just plain adorable. His Mom and Dad had some of the cutest beanie hats for him to wear too. Super cute. He loved to be swaddled and warm - two things I could take care of and he was a happy camper :)

Lisa and Dan - thanks so much for asking me to come and capture memories of little Ben. It was such a pleasure to meet you all! Enjoy your sneak peek!
