4 girls & a boy | Delaware Family Photographer

Some families I meet and just fall completely in love with them. They welcome me to their home like I've been there a million times. The L family is no different. I can't express enough how much I LOVE this family! We had a mini session for the kids this past weekend while I was in Delaware. These children are GORGEOUS! And little N is the only boy with these stunning ladies.






Mia I hope you enjoyed your sneak peak. It was my absolute pleasure to photograph these lovely children!

What is sick? | Northern Virginia Photographer

My girl...my girl is sick! My girl has been fighting a cold since Christmas. I let her stay home this past Tuesday and she rested but still was up playing wanting to do ALL the things "sick" kids that stay home from school shouldn't do. Then yesterday morning she comes in my room and is crying saying that her ear hurts. What does momma say...lets take some Mortin and your GOING to school. All the time I'm thinking she is really ok and just trying to pull one over on me. Well she spends about 15 minutes at school and guess who calls... the nurse. "Well she's here in the office and her ear is pretty red"

I pick her up and we head to the doctor's office only to find out the poor thing has ALL of the following:
Strep Throat
Ear Infection
Bronchitis
Pneumonia

YES all of that at ONCE. My poor baby. My niece said it the best..."OMG {she's about to turn 12 hence the talking in text} did she swim in a pool of sickness?"

I think maybe she did. We had a very long day yesterday and last night and it will be the same today and tonight. Every 4 hours I need to wake her so she can take her nebs (Nebulizer}. I NEVER thought I would be "thankful" that I have one in my home already for my son. WOW did I just say that. NO really if we didn't already have it I would've spent a lot more yesterday. Oh and did you know you can get FREE antibiotics at your local Giant? You didn't? Me neither...I paid my regular co-pay price at CVS and when I got home I happened to see that they are running that promotion right now. Remind me to watch TV more often.

Hang in there I'm hoping to respond to all emails and inquiries between naps today. Thanks to all my Facebook Friends that have posted well wishes to my baby girl. Here are some super quick edits of her doing her treatments yesterday.

Good Times I Northern Virginia Children's Photographer

I'm "dating" myself here but remember Penny from Good Times? Doesn't this little princess remind you of her? When I got home and opened up her mini session that was the first thing I thought. It's a mini version of Penny. DINOMITE!

Mom you have adorable little girl here. I can't wait for her session with her older brother and sister. I enjoyed the short time we had together. I hope you enjoy your sneak peak.

Happy Halloween! | Northern Va Photographer

I just wanted to take time to wish everyone a safe and Happy Halloween! Please be safe and don't eat too much candy.
Now for some images. These aren't sneak peaks since the moms have seen them already. These images came from a photographers meet-up for a little cuties Birthday! Can you guess who's Birthday it was?
Enjoy~

The other Niece

That has been here for 8 years now. We finally got together for her bday session. This little girl has more energy than enough. If only I could still dance like she does. She is always the life of the party. "tootie" I had so much fun hanging with you. We will have to do this again very soon. Love you
~Aunt Stacy

Life of being the child of a Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting up with a group of VA photographers over the weekend. What a great time we had! We brought our kids along as models and went to a couple of gorgeous locations. I also did something I wouldn't DARE do this time of year. I walked in high grass, near a river under a bridge in the woods to get some of these images. ANYONE that knows me well knows that I have a fear of Snakes and well lets just say where I ventured they love to "hang". Lucky for everyone there we didn't see any and I'm safe.

Ladies it was a pleasure meeting you and hanging with everyone. Thanks Willow for opening your home to us. Thanks AJ for the late night coffee! Thanks Beth for getting us home in one piece. Thanks to the children for being great sports and tolerating up to 13 cameras in your faces. It was well worth it! We sure do have some good looking kids.
Enjoy

And lastly my baby-girl. My son was not up to spending the day with a bunch of photography women, he gets enough of me at home.

Session with a "Spy Kid"

I had so much fun yesterday hanging with Z. This kid is full of energy and gave me lots of GREAT faces. What a sweetie! He is signing with a talent agency later this month. His older sister is signed to the same one. Mom does lots of traveling for those two to follow their dreams. {Us moms will stop at nothing for our kids right}I hope to have a session soon with his big sister. Thanks mom for spending the evening with me. I wish both your kids the best of luck with their careers. They will be stars before you know it.
Enjoy your sneak peak!
~Stacy




This one is for you mom

I love the light in these and this is where he got his spy kid nick name from. Doesn't he remind you of the little guy in that movie?
