Welcome little angel to the phenomenal female family of FIVE!! I have been photographing this amazing family for so many years and I loved getting to welcome little A to the world for her newborn portraits.  

Big sisters did SO good during the session and the family portraits are some of my favorites ever- just check out these beautiful princesses!

18 Months Old | Virginia Beach Portraits

admin / Baby's First Year, Children, Couples, Family / / 0 Comments

I had such a fun time exploring First Landing State Park with this adorable family as we celebrated 18 months with little M!  We got some fabulous portraits with mommy and daddy, some great family portraits and then we had a blast playing in the water!  We even took time to photograph mom and dad together, something I feel is some important to do.  Don’t forget to capture the ones who started it all!

Baseball with Dad | Photography Virginia Beach

admin / Baby's First Year, Children, Family, Professional Portraits, Sports Photography / / 0 Comments

One of my favorite things about my job is getting to stay connected with families and clients.  It makes my job seem less like a job and more like connecting with old friends! 

I photographed this little guy while he was still in momma’s belly so getting to photograph him now, as a little baseball player, is so much fun.  I did his new sisters newborn portraits, but before them we took some time to photograph him and his dad (and coach,) in his baseball uniform! 

Such a fun little session and I loved creating some amazing portraits for his family to remember his first years in the sport- who knows maybe the will be pitching in the majors one day!!!

What a Treasure | Newborn Portraits Virginia Beach

admin / Baby's First Year, Children, Family, Newborn / / 0 Comments

Welcome Little Treasure!  I loved getting to photograph this little beauty who has the most true name ever- what a little treasure she was! She did so good during her session.  And I am SO GLAD mom brought her big brothers to the session.  She almost didn’t as the thought of wrangling two ACTIVE 3 years old when her newborn is less than 2 weeks old was too overwhelming for her.  But I convinced her to let me try.  My studio is equipped with a big play area for kids and even has an area for watching movies.  So she brought the while family and we were able to create some amazing family and sibling portraits too!

Zoe is such a beautiful momma-to-be!  And this little one is a rainbow baby and a blessing that has been prayed for for years!  Ive known Zoe for years and got to meet her husband Chris for this shoot.  They were SO much fun to have in the studio and we laughed a lot!  I love the way their portraits turned out and especially loved the addition of a snake!  My first snake maternity portraits!!!

Glow Momma Glow! | Maternity Portraits Virginia Beach

admin / Baby's First Year, Maternity / / 0 Comments

I was so excited to photograph Malorie and Xavior.  I have known Malorie for years and was SO EXCITED to find out she was pregnant.  But she had recently moved across the country so I didn’t think I’d be able to photograph her maternity portraits.  But… on a trip home for her baby shower we were able to fit in her session.  

She was GLOWING for her session at First Landing State Park.  It was HOT but the love between them and the gorgeous Virginia Beach weather helped me to create these amazing portraits. It was almost impossible to narrow down to our favorites from heir session!

I cannot wait to meet her little one in November when she comes back to visit.  Stay tuned for more portraits then!
