I designed this card in honor of Eve and Sonia’s first birthday with new year’s wishes from the whole family. Not quite a birth announcement, nor a holiday card, nor an invitation, the theme required a unique design. With some collaboration with mom, I think we came up with just the right thing.
…happy new year!
The first week of the new year for me was marked by fever, coughing, and an ear infection. When I started feeling pressure in my ear drum that reminded me of childhood illnesses, I knew it was time for a trip to the doc and some antibiotics. Now I’m catching up on things I had planned to do last week…like write a post for the new year…
I just wanted to say a big “thank you!” to all my clients from the past year. It was a privilege and a blast working with each and every one of the families that I photographed.
December was a busy month of designing cards for myself and my clients. I was really pleased with the results and hope my clients were too. Here’s my own holiday card featuring my lovely subjects from the past year(which some of you may have seen already 
).
This is from my last session of the season, in honor of a first birthday that arrives soon after the new year. These lovely ladies might be twins, but they’re just about as opposite as can be. Sonia with blond hair and blue eyes, Eve with light brown hair and dark brown eyes, you can tell the moment you meet them who is shy and who is bold. Eve crawled right up and peered into my lens, while Sonia needed a little more coaxing. They are right at the age when they’re constantly on the move, so it wasn’t till they were worn out at the very end of the session that I managed to get a few images of them sitting together. Phew!
I think the peak of autumn foliage occurred the day of this photo session. As I walked up the front stoop of Rachel and Andy’s row house, I couldn’t help but notice the brightly colored fallen leaves blanketing the walkway. Feeling inspired, we brought a little hint of nature indoors to add a little pop to the images. Thanks to extremely chill parents for letting me get creative. I feel extremely privileged to have been able to spend quality time with my dear friends and their sweet new boy during these first precious days.
I can’t remember the that last time I posted new photos of my little guy who is already 19 months old!! For those of you wondering what he looks like as a toddling toddler, these are from the other day at one of our favorite little playgrounds, Westminster Park. And no, that is not his bike, but his current obsession is spinning wheels.

I had the pleasure of photographing this cutie pie and his lovely parents last weekend. Enjoy!
I got to spend the afternoon with Grace and her parents on a very special day in all of their lives. Happy first birthday Grace!
Same steps, different cute toddler. Brady’s mom was the one who introduced me to this great location.
The Spanish Steps, tucked away in an unsuspecting location in downtown DC, provided a gorgeous backdrop for some more holiday photos. Liam was dressed in the perfect outfit to compliment the autumn colors of the fallen leaves. I’m in love with the results! I almost forgot to mention, check out the photos I took of Liam just about one year ago. I’m especially impressed with the change in his hair!
This was my last of four sessions with Fallon and the first holiday session of the year. I first met Fallon when she wasn’t even crawling yet and now she’s a bona fide toddler with a mouthful of teeth, running around trying to keep up with her big sister Olivia.
