welcome to my journal

This summer family session in DC was full of energy and movement. These kiddos kept me busy and we captured so many playful images together.

We are so delighted to announce the gender of our sweet baby. We went into the Women’s Center yesterday for our baby’s anatomy scan. I honestly didn’t have a preference either way and had no inkling of whether it was a boy or a girl. It took only seconds of watching our baby on the […]
