Family of 4 – Bristow, VA Family Photographer

WHEW!!! We made it!! We are in Virginia and getting the house ready to move in the next few weeks. We survived the trip and the kids are being troopers with the crazy schedules, living out of suitcases and one bin of toys (makes me wonder if we need the truckload that is on it’’s way here!!).

My last Savannah session almost didn”t happen – the storms every night were proving to be a bit of a problem for beach pictures!! We went for it and luckily the clouds rolled right around us and we even had a bit of sun at the end!

Mom & Dad – Thanks for being good sports and waiting so long for your blog post!!!! I”ve been just as excited as you are to get them up! :) Here are a few to get you through until the rest of the proofs are ready! :)

Next up — FOUR sessions from my weekend in ATL!!

July 29, 2010 - 12:37 pm ashley - Beautiful! The one in the boat is PERFECT!

Mr. Brown Eyes – Northern Virginia Child Photographer

This past week I have been in Savannah and catching up with old friends. The other day I finally got to meet Mr. W and visit with his mommy. We were friends in high school, but haven”t seen each other in person in a few years (ugh – this moving thing makes it hard to keep up with everyone! Thank goodness for FB!!). Mr. W was such a good sport and is such a fun toddler! We had a great time downtown – even in the extreme heat!

It was great to see you again!

5 days new – Bristow, VA Newborn Photographer

So….. it’’s been a little quiet here! We are literally in the middle of moving. The house in AL is packed up and we are in transition until we close on our new house next week!!! (Then we have to wait 2wks to get our things!). We are all VERY ready to be settled and back together. Thank you ALL for your patience and understanding while we are all over the place this summer. Working while on the road is not an easy task (especially with three kids under 5 in tow!).

Last weekend we took a weekend trip down to let the kids fish with my dad in FL and I got to drive to Orlando and visit my college friend and her new baby!! He was 5 days old and a DREAM to work with! He was such a good model and slept the whole time (and without any accidents!). It was so great to catch up with mom and snuggle with little man. It is so crazy to think that B was like that almost a year ago to the date!! (Yes, while I”ve been offline, B turned one!! We had a party and pics will come later — too many client posts to catch up on right now!!!)

My internet has not been on other than my BB, so I haven”t been able to post much, but hopefully I can catch up before the craziness of unpacking begins in VA!!

Enjoy!

July 14, 2010 - 1:26 pm Sae - They are GREAT!!! He does look like he was a perfect little model!!!! He is a beautiful baby!!!! Great work as usual!!!!

July 14, 2010 - 2:21 pm Kimberly - Love them all. I wish I could have gotten some ones of me and Luke together. So special!

July 14, 2010 - 8:49 pm Christina - love the house divided :)

July 14, 2010 - 9:59 pm Tiffany - I cried when I saw the one of Gugel holding P, but smiled when I saw the House Divided! Perfect story board for his nursery! I even looked back and cried again of the one of her holding him! That is just precious!

July 21, 2010 - 2:49 pm amanda leatherberry - Great job....as always! What a precious little babe and I love that last SB...toooooo cute!!!

sunset – NoVa family photographer

Early this week we took one last trip down to Panama City to visit my husband’’s brother and his family. We have had such a great year being within driving distance and the kids have had a ball getting to know each other! We are really going to miss hanging out so much after we move! :(

Speaking of the move – We have a contract on a house!! We should be moving in at the end of July if all goes well. (Cross fingers!!) We will be in limbo for the next few weeks – so bare with me if I don”t return emails/calls quickly or if you have orders coming in — I will be living out of a suitcase, but plan to take my computer with me, so hopefully I will be able to keep things going without too many bumps in the road! Thank you for your patience and understanding!!

We are so glad we were able to visit the beaches in the gulf before they are hit by the ensuing devastation of the oil spill. So far, they are clear, but after this last event, I doubt it will be long before these beaches no longer look this beautiful. We had a bit of storm pass over (as we were on the beach with the kids) during the day, and I knew it was going to be a beautiful sunset — yay for summer storms!! We tried to shoot until it was too dark to see – I”m so glad we got some great ones before the light gave out on us!!

June 28, 2010 - 9:35 pm amanda leatherberry - They turned out beautiful D! Love the color of that sunset and I am so sad these beaches will be covered with oil soon :(

MC – Child Photographer – Northern Virginia

My second session in Savannah was for one of the sweetest girls I know :) B’’s betrothed, MC, just turned 1 and we had to do some pics to mark the time! It makes me so sad to think we will soon be too far away to see them even as often as we do now (which still isn”t nearly enough!).

See you again soon! :)

pink – Newborn Photographer – Northern Virginia

We are getting down to go time here…. just about 2wks until our house will be packed up! Yikes!! We will have a few trips planned in July until we will be able to settle into our own home, so if you are interested in a session in Savannah, Atlanta or Columbia (possibly Charleston), let me know now! This past week we were in Savannah visiting with friends and family (then took a trip to vegas with no kids!!) and I had two fun sessions while we were there! The first is a sweet baby of a high school friend of mine. After turning off the air, some sweet talk and a lot of patience, we finally got her to sleep :)

A – It was great to see you again and meet your sweet girl! I hope to see you again when we come back in a few weeks!

sweet baby – Newborn Photography

Today I had the pleasure to meet up with the M family and their newest member – Mr. T. :) and he lives up to his name! T was born at 30wks and is now 9wks old. He is such a little trooper and at 6lbs – already such a “big” boy considering his start in life! His big brother and 2 big sisters ADORE him already. I love how easy mom and dad made having 4 kids look… (and no… don”t even think it!).

Mom & Dad – It was a joy to meet your family!

Girls! – Child Photographer

Hello again! Whew – We have been busy the past few weeks!! It is probably good that I have been so busy lately – keeps my mind off of the stress of house hunting from afar and knowing that we are packing up in about a month with no idea where we will live! ACK!!

Once again I had the pleasure of photographing another photographer’’s family. This time Dad was out of town, but we had a fun girlie session and plenty of pictures for his Father’’s Day gifts! Elana runs her own successful photography business and has a new location on the historic square in downtown Talladega, AL.

E – Thanks for coming down for the evening! I had a blast – going to hold you to that trip to DC! ;)

A purse….. and shoes and a ring – Montgomery, AL Child Photography

…. and that’’s what a girl wants!! Little Miss E was promised a purse as incentive for tonight’’s cooperation…. and she quickly told us that she would also like some shoes and a ring with that too. Oh boy! :) Daddy will have his hands full with these two girls in a few years! I think my husband is breathing a sigh of relief that our house will be filled with things he knows how to handle! ha!

Tonight I met the W family for their own family session! Mom is a great local photographer here in Montgomery – Suzanne Williams. Her girls are used to the camera, but the heat was a little much for all of us to bear!! My car said 88 on the way home – at 7:30pm! We made the best of it and mom knew a cute spot I had not found yet — always nice working for other photogs b/c they know what I”m looking for at locations! :)

Enjoy!

Huntington – Child & Family Photographer

Last night I met the D family at Huntington College. We have lived here for almost a year and this was the first time I actually walked around the campus – it is gorgeous!! I know now why all the local photographers come here! :) There were so many wonderful old buildings and the light was gorgeous! I hope I can find new spots like this around the DC area (without too many tourists in the background! ha!).

Enjoy!
