A Session with Sweet Little Thumbelina!- Midlothian, Va. Newborn Photographer

At a little over 5lbs, sweet baby "C" was the tiniest baby I have ever held (and I've held a LOT of babies!). She was so beautiful, and had the most delicate little features. I had so much fun working with her and her mom (who was absolutely beaming). I know it's been a long road, Mom and Dad, but she was definitely worth the wait! Enjoy your sneak peek and the rest of your gallery will be soon to follow.

D & J's E-Session- Midlothian, Va. Engagement & Couple Photographer

I'm behind in blogging this, but I still wanted to share. I don't get to do a lot of e-sessions, so this one was a treat. D & J are friends of ours and I was honored to shoot their e-session for them. They were a lot of fun and very much in love. We spent the afternoon driving around and stopping at cool locations. We had some laughs and got some fun shots. Here are a few of my favorites.

A New Year and a New Firefly Photography!

So I'm a little late in launching everything, but I wanted to make sure it was perfect (my site is still a day or two from being done, so be patient!). I've made some changes to my policies and structure, but I think you're going to be really happy with what I'm offering now.

I've changed my session fees to include digital images. These means that, at the very minimum, you'll get 1 digital image from your session along with a 5x7 reference print. You can use this image for cards, prints, gifts, almost anything you can imagine. You will also get a web version of the image(s) you choose, to share online (email, facebook, etc). You'll also have the option to upgrade to a session with more digital images, or even my top package, which includes all the images from your session. All digital images include a 5x7 reference print to help you see what your print should look like. I'll still be selling prints and products, along with some new add-on options. Please contact me for more information and a detailed list of prices/options. Thanks for sticking with me and I look forward to working with you in the new year!
