Ashley in Reston

This past weekend, Michelle had a great time with a very nice young lade.  It was 36 degrees out for our morning photo shoot but Ashley was a great sport and had fun with the whole situation.  The last photo you will see Michelle prompting Ashley with some moves of her own :-)

Thanks Ashley... we had a blast!  Steve and Michelle

Little E!

My wife and I had a great family photo shoot this past weekend. We've never been out to Frederick, Maryland before but we met up with a the very nice family, mom, dad and as I kindly refer to as “Little E” :-) The location was picked by the family and as we've never been out there before we Googled the location and then showed up early so we could walk around to check out possible photo shots. We found Frederick to be a very cute little town and a perfect place for taking these kind of family shots.  It was a great morning for photos as well.  It was slightly overcast not too hot and very light on people traffic and just an overall nice setting with grass, brick, bright colored buildings and a river that ran right to the middle of the park.

We love taking family pictures especially when young kids are involved.  We always tell the family that everything that we're going to do today is dictated by what the kids want to do.  We just let them do there thing and we follow them around to capture what ever “their thing” is that day :-)  Other than you'll see some fancy accessories Little E is wearing at times we don't try and pose them in any particular way. Every once in a while the whole family would huddle up together for a moment for a couple of quick family shots. Little E was great.   We walked up and down the boardwalk.  She loved the flowers and picking up any little something off the ground.  She also loved playing with a ball and took a real liking to the pearl necklace my wife brought along. 

Anyway, we did a great time for about an hour and a half and then it started to rain but by that time we had well over 400 pictures and some great shots that we will share with you below.  

Take care everyone – Steve and Michelle
