The Swishers | Family Session

I got to know Marcy through our kids' elementary school PTO.  Marcy was president this year and did such a fabulous job!  Stan and I worked closely with her during the prep for the school talent show.  I was so excited when she asked me to take some photos of her beautiful family.  We had originally talked about the Virginia Arboretum as a location, but really wanted to find something closer to home.  After trying (and failing) to find something that was just right, we ended up going back to our original idea.  I'm so glad we did because this location worked perfectly!  We were blessed with some beautiful weather and gorgeous light and had a great time exploring the grounds and taking photos.  Here are some of my favorites of this sweet family...

Thanks Swisher family!  I'm sure I'll see you all again soon!

The Hills | An Extended Family Session

My neighbor Holly asked me to take some photos of her family while they were all in town visiting.  They came from Maryland, Arizona and California and all gathered here in Northern Virginia!  We met at the Stone Bridge at Manassas Battlefield for a session on an absolutely beautiful June evening.  It was so fun to get photos of them all together.  Here are some of my favorites...

Adorable cousins!

Thanks for making this session so fun!  I hope your family had a wonderful visit together.

Little Miss Marie | 3 Weeks Young

Our neighbors welcomed their second baby girl and I was so happy to take a few photos for them.  Marie has the wisest little eyes and most relaxed personality.  I'm sure she will be a perfect playmate for big sister, Shealynn.  Here are just some of my favorites from our session.

Thanks for letting me take photos of your sweet family, Bre and J Paul!  (And thanks for being great neighbors!)
