Fall Colors in DC | Washington DC Family Photographer

November 19, 2008 – 10:43 am

I was so excited when this family commissioned me to do some fall family portraits.  I’ve known them since their oldest daughter was an infant and it was so fun to spend the morning with them. We had great weather and beautiful fall colors for early November.  They looked so beautiful against the backdrop of yellow leaves and I noticed quite a few tourists also taking pictures of them!  They even had me singing parts of “Total Eclipse of the Heart”.  Apparently, the youngest gal is going through a Bonnie Tyler phase.   Their not sure where she picked it up, but she loves the song.  :) Enjoy! –Sally

Here are some of my favorites from my session that I had at the Lincoln Memorial on Veteran’s Day.  It was a crisp November morning with beautiful sunlight.  This little lady braved the cold weather and looked so charming in her holiday dress.  Thanks for a great session! –Sally

To those who served and those that are serving now…

November 11, 2008 – 11:52 pm

…Thank you for all you have given. I had a session at the Lincoln Memorial this morning and it was such a pleasure to see so many Veterans out at the monument. As I arrived I saw two bald eagles flying overhead. They did not go unnoticed by the Veterans who stopped and stared at them, enjoying the view. It was such a beautiful site, so many symbols of our freedom all in one place. Happy Veteran’s Day. –Sally

Autumn colors | Washington DC family photographer

November 11, 2008 – 11:22 pm

Late last month I headed out to Great Falls Park in Virginia for a family session. It was so nice to spend the morning in the park with this family. The forecast was calling for rain and it was slightly overcast (great for photos!) so I think it kept many people away. The park was pretty empty and we got some great shots. Here are a few of my favorites. Enjoy! –Sally

Fall in Alexandria | Northern Virginia Family Photographer

November 6, 2008 – 9:53 am

This family of seven and I met up in late October at Ft. Ward Park for a family session.  We wanted some fall color and we got it.  I love Virginia in the fall.  The weather was pretty mild and we got some lovely afternoon light.  The kids were all so photogenic that they made this really easy.  Thanks for a fun afternoon.  Enjoy! –Sally

I spent a lovely Saturday morning with this little lady and her father.  She was so happy about getting photographed–she giggled and did a lot of jumping up and down.  I loved her zeal and she was pure joy to photograph.  Enjoy! –Sally
