Please update your blog readers and email subscriptions so you can find out what I've been up to. Thanks! Sally

"My Girls"

For the past two summers my friend Kelley and I have been involved with a Bible Study for college girls home for the summer. It has been such a pleasure to get to know these young women, share in their lives, and to relive some of my own college memories through their stories. We've shared a lot over cups of coffee and cupcakes at Buzz and I'm looking forward to their winter break this December when they'll be home again with stories of the past semester. Last week before everyone left we met up for dinner and a quick mini-photo session. Here are a few of my favorites from the evening. Miss you girls! Enjoy! Sally






Custom Photography



Here is a great resource for information about the investment of custom photography.

Inspiration

I like a little inspiration for how to display my photographs. It is one reason why I love the Pottery Barn catalog and all the design blogs cropping up on the internet (this is one of my favorites). Now I found a product created for photograph layouts and I am excited to offer my clients a little inspiration for displaying their images with this new inspiration guide. It has different layouts for wall and shelf displays and includes the corresponding picture sizes to make designing a snap. Enjoy! --Sally

Great Falls, Virginia Photography Session | Sneak Peek

Here is a sneak peek from yesterday's session. This family was so much fun. Their little girl reminded me so much of oldest daughter at age one, so full of energy and spunk. We met at Great Falls Park in Virginia. I hadn't been in years and it was great to be back at the park. I had forgotten just how gorgeous it is and I can't believe how long I've been away. I'm already planning a trip to take my family there. Thanks for a great morning....definitely more to come! Enjoy, Sally

Family Session in Washington, D.C.

I'm still catching up from last month's sessions. This one was a very fun session with a very active 13-month old. He was just starting to walk on his own and was very much into exploring the world around him. We met up at the family home and then headed over to a park in Georgetown. It was a great morning--perfect weather and a smiley toddler. A photographer's dream! Thanks for such a fun morning! Enjoy, Sally


I was totally smitten when I saw his gorgeous brown eyes.


You can get a glimpse of their yard. Gardening is a shared passion of Mom and Dad and we spent a great deal of time in the backyard with all the lovely plants and the fish pond. It was so relaxing.




Love the little wet toes.
When I arrived he was just finishing up a little morning snack. He was so incredibly charming with his cute smiles I had to get out my camera and start the shoot right away.

Tennessee Friends

Late last winter some dear friends of ours moved to Knoxville, TN. Last month during our road trip we were able to spend some time with them at their new home. I have to be honest, I had a little house envy. :) Their home is lovely and we are so happy for them, but we sure do miss them. Hopefully they'll be up for a visit soon. (Hint, hint!) Miss you! Sally
