Chasing Giggles with Brooks and Bo at Rock Creek Park
Two joyful little brothers, a perfect fall day, and all the running and laughing we could handle. This Rock Creek Park session captured childhood in its purest form.
Some sessions are calm. Others are fast-paced. This one? It was all energy, laughter, and movement.
I met Brooks and Bo and their family at Rock Creek Park on a gorgeous fall morning. The leaves had turned, the air was cool, and the boys were ready to go. And by go, I mean run. Everywhere. All the time.
Brooks and Bo were full of that good kind of chaos- the kind that makes for real, joyful photos. They ran in opposite directions, made each other laugh, and kept us all on our toes. And while they did everything but sit still, we still captured so much love and sweetness between them.
That’s the fun of photographing young kids. You let go of the idea of "perfect" and lean into the play. It’s in those in-between moments that the real stuff shows up. A quick hug. A shared look. Hands grabbing sticks. Legs mid-sprint.
Their parents went with the flow and trusted the process. And Rock Creek Park, as always, gave us that soft light and fall color that makes everything feel warm and alive.
Love these wild, unscripted, and full of heart sessions.
If you’ve got little ones who don’t stop moving, don’t stress. Those sessions often turn out to be the most fun and the most meaningful.
Why I Love Mommy & Me Sessions | Silver Spring, MD
A sweet mommy and me session celebrating the sweet bond between a mother and her 8-month-old daughter. These sessions are all about giving moms a chance to be in the photos, creating timeless memories of this season of motherhood.
Why I Love Mommy & Me Sessions
There’s something so special about capturing the bond between a mama and her little one. This recent outdoor session with a sweet 15–month–old and her mom was full of laughter, snuggles, and those in–between moments that tell the story of their relationship so beautifully.
At this stage, babies are discovering the world with wide eyes and endless expressions. Chubby hands reaching, little giggles bubbling up, and the way they lean into mom for comfort. Watching them together reminded me why I adore offering these sessions: because moms deserve to be seen in the story, not just the one behind the camera.
So often, mothers are the memory–keepers- snapping photos of milestones and everyday life while rarely stepping into the frame themselves. Mommy and me sessions flip the script. They give you a chance to be fully present with your child, with tangible reminders of the love and connection you share in this exact season.
If you’ve been thinking about getting in front of the camera with your little one, I’d love to give you the gift of slowing down, soaking in the sweetness of this season, and walking away with images that will mean even more years from now.
