Lynchburg Baby Photographer A Sweet New Baby Girl

, , ,

This beautiful mama contacted me a few weeks after her sweet little lady made her arrival. Even though I recommend clients book their newborn sessions before their baby is born, I always do my best to squeeze last minute bookings in when I can. And I am always so grateful when I do have space on the calendar! This sweet little lady was about six weeks old when I finally met her, and what a beauty she is!! Mama opted to have her hair and make-up done by our HMUA team and was able to nurse little L at the same time. 

Aren't they a beautiful family?

Are you expecting and ready to book your newborn session? I am already reserving sessions as far out as August 2017. Newborn sessions are best scheduled between 8-21 days old during the hours of 10AM-2PM. If you have waited until the last minute, please contact me - if I am able to fit you in, I will! I don't want you to miss out on the opportunity to have this short and sweet season of life documented. Contact me today to reserve your session.

When Michelle reached out to me to shoot her maternity session, she mentioned she was a photographer herself. I was honored to have been her choice of a maternity photographer! Michelle and her family traveled from Roanoke for their session. I love the jewel tones she selected for their fall session - they were perfect! Here are a few of my favorite pictures from our time together!

I had the honor of meeting this family for their maternity session back in October. Imagine how excited I was to receive an email from them about shooting their newborn session! I'll be honest, as we wrapped up their maternity session, I gave them a genuine recommendation to find a different photographer closer to home for their newborn session. Traveling 4 hours with a newborn can be challenging and I wanted to help them find beautiful images without having to make that trip.

But, they refused! :)

When Katie reached out to me last summer for an outdoor maternity session, she mentioned that she lived in the Northern Virginia area. I found out soon after her inquiry that she lived in Alexandria and wanted to travel to meet me for her session! What an honor! We decided to meet in Charlottesville at this whimsical field and I had a lovely time capturing her beautiful family (and their first baby - Benny!) during this short and sweet season of life.

Michael & Marilyn's Blue Ridge Parkway & Charlottesville Engagement Session

Michael & Marilyn's Blue Ridge Parkway & Charlottesville Engagement Session

I first met Marilyn at Tyler & Chelsea’s wedding back when I was super duper pregnant with my youngest, Izzie, and I was waddling around from location to location to capture their wedding day. Marilyn was the wedding planner and she did an amazing job shooing people on and off the party bus while helping me make the most of our tight timeline. She mentioned she was impressed with my flexibility and wanted to book me for her own engagement + wedding pictures! What a huge compliment!!
