Happy Birthday and Happy Birth Day!|Washington DC Child Photographer
May 20, 2009It’s not often you get to celebrate a newborn and a birthday at the same session – but this big sister turned two today, and I was able to get both newborn and birthday portraits! Not to mention – I have photographed big sis 4 times now – as a newborn, “barely sitting”, toddling, and today – as a “big girl”!
We WORKED for the sibling shots… I wasn’t sure how they were going to be. The irony is, they are some of my favorite sibling shots ever!
Many thanks to these wonderful clients for letting me document their girls as they grow. Following kids and marking milestones is truly the greatest part of my job!!
