I’m always so honored when asked to photograph another photographer’s family.   And when it’s a friend I’ve known for years (and watched her business blossom), I love it even more.

Jenny stopped by my house today to take some 31 week belly shots of me and my family.  I thought it would be fitting to share some of my favorite images from Rollins’ 1 year photo shoot earlier this month.  Doesn’t she have a beautiful family?

There is something so special and so magical about pregnancy.  For those of us who are fortunate to experience it, it’s truly bliss…

This mom was absolutely glowing at 34 weeks for our maternity session.  We are only a few weeks apart, and I can only dream of looking (and feeling) this radiant as my body continues to change….  Isn’t she stunning?

Some of you may recognize this beautiful mom and family.  Meredith worked with me as our very first Ordering Consultant a couple of years ago before she added sweet baby #3 to her family (and life officially became crazy!).

Her family and my family have a long history and friendship, and I have adored watching them grow over the years!

For our Spring session this year, we chose something different and decided to meet in the Virginia Highlands after school.  I love the resulting captures!

We just brought our newest associate photographer Casey Gardener on board (more on her in a future post!) and we were so excited for her to document her first birthday party for us!

Birthday party coverage is something that I get a lot of requests from.  And now with Casey on our team, I’m thrilled to be able to offer many more opportunities and packages for my clients.  More on that to come soon too!

This was a very special 4th birthday party for Miss Naomi.  Like her friends, she is such a big fan of Sophia the First, so what better way to help celebrate her big day than through a delightful afternoon tea party planned with all of the princesses!

A look at the beautiful details and wonderful expressions that unfolded that day for Naomi.
