When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
-Proverbs 31:21
Time is running out to get those special Fall photos! The leaves are falling fast, way faster than I expected! If you’ve been wanting to take photos of your children or family during our beautiful Fall here in Northern Virginia, or if you are aware as I am that Christmas will be here in the blink of an eye and you want to have those super special Washington D.C. Christmas card photos this year, don’t wait. Time passes too quickly and opportunities to capture these memories are only there when you take them! Booking Fall and Christmas sessions, but time is running out!

excited to share the film that resulted from this quick backyard photo session. i love the process, the imperfection and the surprise of the results in the end. film always gives me a warm feeling; reminds me of the nostalgia i get when i look at photographs from my own childhood. i still feel like film has an important place in my work and look forward to using this medium more and more. also, considering adding film to my portrait sessions. i think it can give my clients a “whole” experience by blending the newness of digital and the retro feelings of film. i don’t know about you, but i still <3 film!

look forward to more filmy goodness!There’s this special time I have most days with my oldest daughter, where after school it’s just the two of us. I really value this window of time, and I try to get her away from her homework or cell phone or whatever else may be calling her name, and we just get to hang. On this day it had been raining (again) and suddenly the sun came out and I was dying to photograph her with my film camera. So I begged a little (and then a little more) and she said, OK, FINE! So we tossed the blanket over her and I shot a handful of pics, thanked her profusely and we went inside. Then I realized I had no film in my camera, NOOOOO! The pics i had just taken, in my mind, were PERFECTION. So I begged again and to my surprise, she was not as reluctant as she was the first time (yay, maybe she’s warming up to my camera again?!). This time, instead of a handful, I took the whole roll. I couldn’t help myself. And I’m dying to get them back. That’s the fun of film- it’s a gift when you take the photos, and then again when you finally get to open them up after they’ve been developed. But, of course, this mom photog wasn’t satisfied with just that. I had her wait for me to go inside to get my digital camera too. I mean, really, how many times will this girl get in front of my camera! I was smitten and couldn’t help myself. Here are the digital images; loving Fall in Virginia, loving extra time with my baby girl.
and just for fun, had to share this outtake… the sunflare looks a little other-worldly to me, what do you think?!

you are a star.
your growth,
a guiding light.
take hold of today
and let it carry you
let the spirit
free you, within you
know you are gold
feel your lightness
dream your way
DO your days
make who you are count
yearn forward
lean in
and let go of who you are
be who HE wants you to be
then
sustain yourself with
.JOY.
