Carrie and Josh

Well as you can see it was another great day in the neighborhood.  At least in the Virginia neighborhood.  I've been visiting my daughter Michelle and her family and in the process have been very busy with photo shoots here.  I know that I say it all of the time and feel that I must say it again.  I am truly blessed with great clients no matter where I am!!!  Josh and Carrie were so wonderful withstanding the first really cold day with tempertures in the 30's.  Their Mom was wrapping them in coats in between shooting to try and keep them warm.  Despite the temperture we had a great afternoon and here is a peek from the shoot.  Thanks Cheryl for sharing your sweet children with me for the afternoon!!!

Emma, Owen and Logan

These three kids were absoutely the sweetest!! We had a great day in the neighborhood! Loved talking with Emma about photography, at least, when she wasn't talking about her favorite books.  Beautiful, bright and very smart, that's Emma.  Owen was very sweet and very cooperative.  He's a bit shy but I think we got some of his personality to shine through.  He did tell me he was promised at least a $20.00 toy if he did great for his photos.  Now Logan has a smile that will melt your heart!  He is a natural and when the camera is ready he is smiling.  Again, it was a great day in the neighborhood.  Thank you Kim for sharing your wonderful children with me.

Beautiful, Sweet Miss Addison

Miss Addison has such a beautiful smile!! I often talk about being blessed as a photographer and again I have to say it.  Getting to meet the children of children I watched grow up!! What could be better??    I think Addison enjoyed the photo shoot and getting all dressed up too!!

Happy Birthday Braydon!!

These photos of Braydon were taken yesterday on his 2nd birthday!  He just loves to explore as most little boys do.  Braydon is such a little miracle and everyone who knows him loves him.  Again let me say how truly blessed I am to be able to photograph such beautiful children!!

Miss Bailey - Such a little Model!!

Holloman Family

Wednesday I had the pleasure of meeting the most nice, sweet and loving family.  How many times do you actually see a husband that after many years of marriage still opens the car door for his wife?? When I commented how sweet it was he said everyday was a "date" for them.  These two parents are still so in love with each other and they both totally adore their beautiful daughter.  Thank you so much for sharing your family with me!  These are just a few of the many great photos from our session together.

Occuquan, Virginia + The little Dunn's - Mississippi Lifestyle Photographer

This summer I had the pleasure of spending quite a bit of time with "The Little Dunn's", Jefferson, Savannah and Anna Grace.  If you have ever been to Virginia you know that there are wonderful places to visit.  However, you must be careful choosing your travel times.  The traffic is totally unbearable to this Mississippi girl so we only ventured out during the middle of the day to avoid it.  I had been wanting to go back to Occuquan for sometime.  It's a beautiful little town sitting proudly along the Potomoc River.  We spent a couple of hours there and you can imagine with 3 kids 10, 7, and 6 they would have definitely prefered to somewhere else. We truly enjoyed walking the streets and the bridge across the water.  Jefferson wished he had his fishing pole with him and vowed that he would be back with Papa Ted to fish there.  These photos are the result of our time in Occuquan.  Not sure how much of the little town you will see however.  Obviously I like my subjects to be the main focus of my photos!!!  Will be adding more photos eventually.
