Abby's 1st Birthday Cake Smash

It’s been one year since we saw Abby here, and my has she grown so much!  A year ago she was a wiggly newborn and eager for a bottle between photos.  Today she is still wiggly, but on the verge of taking her first steps, and likes to clap and be silly at every chance.

For her First Birthday Cake Smash mom and dad (well, mostly mom) got Abby a butterfly decorated cake to celebrate.  After some time playing with (and popping) some balloons, it was time for cake.  Abby went straight for it!  Her side of the cake was in pieces and in her mouth in mere minutes, and with all the excitement, a few minutes later the whole cake toppled, but the sugar rush continued!

Happy Birthday to Abby, and can’t wait to see how much she’s grown in another year!

The Browne Family

For many years now, I've been very closely connected Washington Dulles International Airport based on my time working for the Airports Authority, which continues today as a private business.  It has only been over the past several years that my photography has brought me to directly know Dulles' Airport Manager, and come to know him and his family.  With their son headed off to the Marine Corps, and the rest of the family soon busy with work and school, Chris' family asked me to take some pictures while everyone was still in town this Summer. This wasn't the first time I have photographed the Browne family (and certainly not the first time Chris has been in front of my lens) - the Brownes love having a great time, and will always make you feel welcome, both in their home, and going out... perhaps to a vineyard...
