Today Was A Smash | Cake Smash Photography, Frederick, MD

I am the luckiest girl around to have the most adorable clients come my way! I love watching the beginning of a cake smash where they are all dolled up in fancy clothes, and then watching them tear through a cake like ‘THIS is what I came here for!’ I think everyone needs something special on their birthday, especially your very first one. Meet miss Mia:

The Tutu was one of my favorite parts! So much color! And nothing gets me like baby leg warmers…
A lot of exciting things are coming soon for emiB so stick close! Spring time is going to be so exciting with a few upgrades!
Music: Lea Michele’s new album Louder just came out this week, and it is just chock full of beautiful music and tons of emotion.
Coffee: Vanilla Macchiatos are new at Starbucks! They are sweet and calming and a good choice if you are a fan of Caramel Macchiatos.
Stay sweet guys and leave some love!

Holiday Cookies! | Lifestyle Photography, Ashburn VA

Jesse and I were invited to a cookie baking play date in the beginning of December, so I brought my camera to catch some of the holiday magic. I want everyone to meet the absolutely adorable and brilliant little Audrey.
She was showing me all of the ornaments she painted for her play room tree.

Her beautiful mama Rach was a perfect host and baker and her house was just stunning in every way. She and Audrey started off with chocolate cookies rolled in sugar!

And then my sweet Jesse got in on it. Look how cute they are together!

Roll a cookie, take a dip in the sugar, roll a cookie…

We can all probably tell which part of baking is Jesse’s favorite…

We put those bad boys in the oven and the littles helped them self to some more powdered sugar.

I hope everyone had a safe and cozy holiday season! We sure did! I can’t wait to see what 2014 has in store.

Speaking of 2014, I ordered my new planner and I think that’s cause for a big sale! $50 off any session that is booked before my planner arrives! Book any date in 2014! The more sessions I book, the more prizes everyone wins! (See my facebook page for more information) e-mail me to book today!

Coffee: I’m going back to a classic, the caramel macchiato, but I like to add a pump of hazelnut to my vanilla, just to spice it up a little.

Music: I got tickets to see Walk Off The Earth next month and I am so stoked! We looked up who the opening act would be and I realized I knew their music too, so I am listening to Parachute today.

Leave some love,

A Cozy Little Fall Family | Family Photographer, Frederick, MD

I hope everyone had a beautiful Thanksgiving! It’s such an amazing feeling to wake up the day after a holiday and actually get excited to do work! I couldn’t wait to get this blog up for everyone and show off one of my very favorite families. Everyone loves that sweet little face of Mason’s and now we can see his awesome parents join in for a gorgeous fall family session! I will tell you, it was so super cold out while we were shooting, but the lighting and the fall leaves were so warm and beautiful. They totally rocked it and we got so many amazing shots.

I couldn’t help but catch a few extra fun ones of one of my favorite little guys- Mason!

His Aunt Katie tagged along and assisted behind the scenes, but I managed to get a perfect shot of her snuggling her little peach.

I can’t get enough of that smile!

I hope everyone is staying warm inside or at least getting some great deals out in the crazy black Friday madness. I was thinking of having a Black Friday sale, but I think I’m cooking up a fun sale idea for sometime before the new year gets here. So stay close!

Music: Wrapped In Red by Kelly Clarkson is one of my favorite new Christmas songs, that whole album is really great (but I’m a sucker for Christmas songs)

Coffee: Now that Thanksgiving is over, I’m tossing pumpkin flavored things out in favor for gingerbread! YUM.

Leave some love!

Sweet Seventeen (Days Old) | Newborn Photographer, OBX, NC

One of my favorite things about photography is the ability to stop time. Put it in a mason jar on a shelf and keep it exactly the way it was at that moment. I had another session with my beautiful friend Allison. The bun in her oven finished cooking and I got to meet sweet little Dax for the first time! I won’t chat anymore and let you go meet him too, because he’s adorable:
Beautiful Allison glowing and being amazing

He was giving me this serious look a few times. He was a little skeptical of me at first.

I can’t even handle this one. So. Squish. It’s almost like he’s in the womb again.

Current Music: The Nsync Christmas album has begun its playing in my house. Don’t judge. It’s still one of my favorites. Disclaimer: I usually don’t start decorating until Thanksgiving night, but it just felt right!
