Mommy + Me Session – Doswell, VA

Posted on April 15, 2018 by Anika Colombo

I had a few absolutely amazing sessions while our cherry blossom was in full bloom and we had some gorgeous weather to go along with it, thankfully! I had so much fun chasing the light with this session, and this sweet little girl just adored the “princess dresses” she got to borrow from my client closet! I created a little video to go along with this session also (viewable here). Try not to smile or tear up thinking about your own children and how fast they grow! It’s impossible!

Mommy & Me Session – Doswell, VA

Posted on February 23, 2018 by Anika Colombo

It’s always been such a wonderful and privileged feeling to watch my repeat clients’ little ones grow up over the years. I got to work with one of my favorite families again recently, and it is just amazing how fast time goes when you have children! There are really no words to describe how happy it makes me to have clients come back year after year, because I really enjoy watching these kids grow up so much.

I had the honor of photographing this beautiful mama and her boys again at my farm in Doswell, and it was the. best. day. Beautiful weather with some gorgeous sunshine after all the rain we’ve been having, and we just went on a walk and had FUN! I’ve been incorporating short video clips into my sessions to further document these sweet little memories, and am pleased to offer this new service for my upcoming sessions. If you haven’t watched their clip yet, hop on over to my Facebook page and check it out!

For now, here are some of the images from their session! Check out this link to view a slideshow with more images. I hope I accurately portrayed just how much love this family has between them. ❤

I had the pleasure of working with Maria and her sweet little boy on a Mommy & Me session for the two of them. She is a photographer as well, so she knows all too well how important it is for us mommies to actually be IN some of the pictures sometimes 😉 I’m so glad they’ll get to keep these little moments forever. Here is a peek at their session.
