My first camera


Technically it is not my camera, but I had one just like it. My sister found this one on eBay for my kiddos. It is in great condition and brought back a lot of fun memories. I've enjoyed all the cheesey zoo "pictures" on it. Very 1970s. Now Fisher Price makes the Kid Tough Digital camera that takes real pictures. We've got one in pink and it does take a beating. Somehow it is just not quite the same. Thanks for reminiscing with me. --Sally

Two Weeks Old

I always like to do newborn sessions sometime during the first two weeks of life. This is a newborn session with the same family from my birth session post. I met them at their home on a gray, cold rainy morning. We snuck out for a few shots bundled up under umbrellas, but most of the photos were taken inside where it was warm and cozy. Thanks for a wonderful morning! Enjoy! --Sally

Baby's first Tiffany! This is her present from Dad and her big brother. Lucky girl!
A break in the rain...

I love newborn skin. It is so soft and wrinkly.

Sweet, sleepy baby.

Brand New Baby | Birth Session

These images are from a birth session I did recently. It was such a pleasure to share in this experience and be able to document all the emotions of the day. It is such a special time for the family and I was honored to be a part of it. Here are some of my favorites. Enjoy! --Sally



Dad squeezing a little work in...
Progress...
Working through a contraction...

Getting close...
She is finally here!

She was not real thrilled about having her head measured...

Dad is making "the calls"....
Dad holding her for the first time.

Grandma gets her turn.


Love the intimacy of this image...probably one of my favorite mom and baby shots.

DC Urban Moms List

When I was pregnant with my first child my friend and co-worker told me about DC Urban Moms. Back then it was just a mailing list (a huge one!) covering various topics including nannies, playgroups, parenting styles, local doctors and much more. Now it has grown into more than just the email list. They have forums, mailing lists, links to events and much more. If you are a parent in the Washington, DC area I highly recommend you check out this resource. Enjoy! --Sally
