Playtime! | Washington, DC family photographer

My last session this weekend was capturing these twins exploring, playing and just being wild.  What cuties E and R were.  We went to a favorite park that was packed with drum circles, yoga/body benders and the smell of patchouli everywhere…I must say, it took me back to my college days in Boulder Colorado.  There...

All Aboard! The Benj turns 2 | Falls Church, VA family photographer

I spent the morning photographing one of my favorite clients, my little man Benj!  Not always the easiest to capture, but my very biased opinion, is certainly the cutest!  We explored an old train car, threw rocks and just laughed and laughed!  Now imagine, a very pregnant woman balancing on train tracks , climbing a...

I was honored with JoAnne of Pink Confetti Kidz contacted me to photograph some of her new line for Spring.  I was even more honored that she was SOOOOOO incredibly patient in waiting for this snow to melt so I could get these taken!   Pink Confetti Kidz use of fabric and colors keep the spirited...

Brothers! | Herndon Family Photographer

First off, I need gloves.  Gloves I can shoot with.  So if you are reading this and have a recommendation on good photographer gloves, leave me a note.  My fingers are still frozen from playing with these two wild boys.  They were troopers.  I have known these two little guys their whole lives, so it...

sisters! | Arlington, VA family photographer

There is something about sisters.  A shared connection, an instant friend.  Something special.  Growing up I was blessed with a pretty terrific sister.  During a particular low point of our friendship (I think I was 17ish) a family friend told me “Jennifer, boys will come and go, but sisters are forever”  So true, so true. ...

I finally had the pleasure to photography THE Ms. O, and she was worth waiting for.  Our last session was rained out, so we jumped at the chance to reschedule this weekend.   We had a beautiful day and such a joyful little girl.  This clearly was the weekend of fashion-forward moms!  Both of these outfits...

blogging, facebooking & the lost dog | Arlington virginia children photographer

Have you friended someone on facebook who you have never met in person?  The “H” family is one of those fb friends and I finally met them today.  It was rather strange, as when they came into my house today, I totally forgot I had never met them. I was instantly comfortable with the “H”...

Twins…growing up! | Arlington, VA Photographer

I was waiting, just waiting for my son’s “school” to call me.  He has been battling a runny nose for 4 days now, so I am more than sure he isn’t really contagious and its nothing more than a cold (fingers crossed) but he just looks sick.  He looks sicker than he is and that...
