project 52 of 2013 | color

Before you all get sick of the belly pictures...I'm sneaking in another! For this week's "color" challenge I chose shades of pink.

"Happy" is...

• A thriving 2 1/2 year old, who just happened to be born almost 7 weeks early.
• A husband who loves me unconditionally and truly supports me in everything I do.
• The sound of the shutter on my Canon 5D Mark II.

Friends of Homeless Animals [adoptables.]

Some may already know, but before we brought our daughter into the world my husband and I used to bring dogs into our home...a lot of them. In about two years we fostered 15 dogs, and thankfully only kept one - our wonderful Snoopy. Even though we won't foster again until our daughter is older, I still want to continue volunteering, and what better way than to take pictures of the incredible dogs available for adoption?

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!

A few days ago, I shared pictures with you from our trip to Pennsylvania last weekend. If you missed it, you can check it out here. I mentioned that we stopped in Gettysburg on our way home and shared a handful of pictures of my favorite monument with you - the Irish Brigade.

Big Pennsylvania Weekend

Last weekend my husband, daughter, and I took a trip to Hershey, PA to meet my in-laws and sister-in-law for a fun chocolate-filled weekend. If you want to see an image larger, just click on it - since there's so many, I wanted to keep them relatively small.

This week's challenge was "monochromatic." I had a super squishy newborn session on Tuesday and I decided to share an otherwise unseen picture with you all :)

Welcome, Baby C. | Northern Virginia Photographer

Meet seven days new Baby C. Love me some squishy newborns :)

project 52 of 2013 | framing

This week's theme was framing. I hit a bit of inspiration-block and happened to come across my cat being ridiculous at just the right time. This is Molly, being framed by our kitchen sink :)
