Grace Turns One – Northern Virginia Child Photographer

ryanzook — Mon, 25 Apr 2011 13:12:00 +0000

I met Grace and her parents for a photo shoot just after her first birthday. Grace was a wobbly walker with a big smile. It was a sunny Spring day… here are a few of my favorite pictures!

Near the kids park at Meadowlark Gardens in Vienna, VA.

I loved these three expressions, especially the sad face bunny picture.

This was shot before Grace tried to eat the flower petal!

Priceless.

Booking Portrait Sessions & Weddings…

ryanzook — Thu, 18 Nov 2010 16:00:00 +0000

Are you considering booking a portrait session in 2011? If so, contact me for availability and to lock in my 2010 pricing. The session fee includes all of the digital files & personal use rights to all photos! Portrait sessions include engagement, senior/graduates, maternity, newborn, family, trash the dress, bridal, boudoir, or just because. To lock in 2010 pricing, portrait sessions must be paid for by the end of January 2011, but can be redeemed anytime.

Group sessions are great for high school senior or “just because” portraits. By booking with a couple friends, you can have a great time together while receiving a discount! Ask me about portrait party and multiple session discounts.

Based on demand, my 2010 wedding pricing is good for weddings booked (contract and deposit received) by the end of January 2011, too.

A year ago I took pictures of three little ladies, Sydney, Avery, and Whitney (left to right in the photo below). A year later, Whitney is walking and the twins are talking up a storm. We stopped by a playground in Fairfax to take some photos in their cute tutus. Here is a sneak peek of some of my favorites!

Some pictures of Whitney on the slide and swing with her big smile.

Avery posing in the leaves and enjoying the slides.

Sydney smiling with her cute little blond ringlets.

I added a neat effect to this one of Syndey…

Pictures of the twins… They seemed like best friends!

A couple more of the three little ladies!

Easter Egg Hunt – Northern Virginia Child Photographer

This beautiful Easter Sunday morning, Kelly and I had our first Easter Egg Hunt with Brayden (almost 15 months). It was a wonderful family experience… I think we may collect eggs outside on another beautiful day this Spring. Here are a few pictures I hope you enjoy!

In the backyard counting his eggs… ok, he’s not really counting, yet!

Brayden enjoyed dumping the eggs out of the basket more than putting them in!

Putting the Easter basket on Brayden’s head!

Kelly made a giant cupcake for Brayden to devour for his first birthday. It was definitely a special moment and one we will never forget! Happy Birthday son.

This picture cracks me up!

Three Little Ladies – Ashburn Family Photographer

I had the pleasure of taking photos for three little ladies and their mommy and daddy. We lucked out with another sunny November day. Whitney is the youngest of the three at 7 weeks old… She was a perfect model looking right at the camera with her big, bright eyes.

Avery (left) and Sydney (right) are 2 year old twin sisters. They looked adorable in their coordinating heart dresses and tights!

Here are some pictures of Avery…

Mommy and her three princesses.

Daddy’s little girl. She looks so peaceful sleeping.

A few family shots.

A few more photos including one of Avery and Sydney’s boyfriends, Henry and Sullivan. Twin girls and twin boys!

Soccer Team Pictures – Loudoun Sports Photographer

ryanzook — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 05:29:00 +0000

A past client of mine coaches his son’s youth soccer team and he asked me to come shoot team pictures for the parents. We shot these pictures as the sun was setting, but were able to get a few priceless shots. Some of these are sure to make you laugh!

These boys seriously cracked me up. I guess this is what I get to look forward to in a few years when Brayden is playing sports.

I was testing out some new photoshop actions with textures. Here are a few more “action” kick shots of the white team…

Here are the members of the red squad, including the twin boys. Gooooooaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllll!

Maddie – Leesburg Baby Photographer

ryanzook — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:15:00 +0000

I met with Sarah and her baby girl, Madeline, for a mini photo session. Maddie has the biggest eyes and cutest smile. Unfortunately, the temperature dropped so quickly that we had to cut our session short… we’re planning to reschedule another time to take a few more photos. For now, I hope you enjoy these pictures…

Sarah’s mother-in-law sewed this little outfit… Sarah told me she’s planning to start sewing herself.
