I just have to share a few images from a recent session with a gorgeous high school graduate. She just graduated from Key School this spring and is looking forward to going off to college in the fall!  I’ve been priviledged to work with her family several times over the past few years- the first time being for her sister’s senior portraits a few years earlier!

Here are a few of the many favorites:

I so enjoyed going back to meet this family’s newest little family member- a baby girl.  She looked so much like her big brother when I met him as a newborn. He’s two now and just as precious as ever.  You can see how he’s grown HERE

It’s always difficult to capture an older sibling with a newborn, particularly when the big brother is really still a baby/toddler himself.  But he was thrilled at his first time “holding” his baby sister.  Aren’t they adorable?

One of the big guy by himself- he loved to work the camera:

And just a few more favorites:

Well it looks like I am heading back to San Diego (Sandy Eggo as my kids would call it) for some child and family photo sessions in July!  I will have sessions available in and around the San Diego area on July 17, 18, 19.  I could scoot up to Orange county for one of those days or maybe even stay an extra day if needed.

If you or anyone you know would be interested in a session, please give me  a shout!  I’d love to talk with you.
I was out there last fall in Coronado for a session at the Hotel Del Coronado- check it out!

What a treat!  I enjoyed meeting and holding these sweet babies.  It’s so nice to be able to cuddle them and photograph them and then hand them back over to mama at the end of the session.  I had to laugh when I got home and my husband hugged me, told me I smelled great, and asked what perfume I was wearing.  I told him newborn and he didn’t believe me at first!  But seriously, I smelled of baby and what could be sweeter?  (now remind me to shower immediately following my next newborn session so he doesn’t get any crazy ideas!)

It’s not easy getting two twins asleep together at the same time, particularly as they get a bit older than my usual under two week old newborns.  But it’s so worth it.  Wouldn’t you agree?

I so enjoyed this mother and child session!  We had the worst, I mean absolute worst, luck when it came to the weather.  Without fail, it seemed to want to rain on our session dates causing multiple reschedules before we were ultimately able to get together and make the magic happen!

I met this little one two years ago when she was just one year old and it was such a joy to see her again and see how she’s blossomed into this wonderful child.  I think that these sessions with mother and child are so special and will be so very treasured!

This one I just love…

Thanks for once again being such a great sport and hanging in there with the weather!

I revisited another great family recently.  They have added to their family and their youngest had yet to be professionally photographed, plus they needed a new updated family portrait!  I’m not sharing the family picture here, need to save some element of surprise for their gallery, but here are a few peeks of the children…

If you want to see how they have grown, you can look back over our sessions through the years here

I recently met a super cutie in her Annapolis home for her 9 month photo session.  I try to tell my newborn parents that 6-9 months is a perfect time for another portrait sitting and I think this little one is proof positive that it’s true!

Her big brother joined in as well for a little of the action.

It was wonderful meeting you!!

I just wanted to give a little update about the Brides, Babies and Birthdays event we held over the weekend. It was so much fun and it was great to see so many familiar faces and meet some new people as well!

We had a lucky raffle winner who won a Barefoot Photography session and I will be in touch with her tomorrow!

In the meantime, I thought I’d share a few shots of the store from Saturday.  If you haven’t seen the shop yet, it’s worth stopping by Tuesday through Saturday from 10-3!
