Kara & Rob: a DC engagement

It was a chilly morning early in DC. With coffee in hand, we went to some pretty spots around the city while the sun came up. Early morning light is soooo pretty for photo sessions! Kara is not only a friend of mine, she's actually my sister! Sorority sister that is. =) And she couldnt have found a sweeter guy or someone who balances her out, more than Rob can. He's the calm to her sassy. Pretty much like JJ and myself. LOL Kara and Rob, i cannot wait until your wedding in June. We're gonna have so much fun. You two are perfect for each other and I'm so glad I got to capture a little bit of the fun you have together. I love you both! xoJB

So, catching the sun coming up, with a view of DC in the background:

Oh kara, could you get anymore GORGE?! your eyes are amaze!

love this one, my fave:

i also love this one.. look at that smile on her face!! cant wait to see you in a wedding dress kara!!

Femme Fatale Hotness

So, i have this friend. And she's amaze. Smart, fierce, hot and oh so confident. She's the creator of, owner of Femme Fatale Fitness. If you live in the Dayton area and havent take a class there yet, you need to do so. You dont know what you're missing out on. Jackie and her husband recently moved to Colorado where she's planning on taking Denver by storm as well. I had the honor of photographing her one last time before they left and she rocked it as she always does. Jack, i wish you the best of luck expanding your fabu biz out west. Dayton misses you. Cant wait to hear about everything when you come back for a visit. xoJB

Gigi is 1!

"She's our serious girl", Angela told me. And true to form, she definitely was.. but thats not to say i didnt get some beautiful expressions from her. I got to do these photos on her actual birthday just after sunrise and they turned out soo gorge. Angela and Steve, you've got one beautiful girl on your hands. Thank you for trusting me to capture a few moments of her life. xoJB *click on photos to view larger*

She's One!

Its her party and she'll cry if she wants to. Poor Gigi did not like that hat.

Baby Lo is 9 months!

My sweet baby niece is 9 months old. I cannot believe it. Time is flying by and these girls are just growing so fast. Lo lo is the least cooperative, we think, when it comes to photos.. but she still manages to give me a few sweet smiles. Man i just love her to pieces.. enjoy my girl. xoJB

haha this pic cracks me up. she hates wearing hats so as soon as Jackie gets them on her, she rips them off.. and like i said, judging by the look on her face, she's not happy about getting her picture taken either. lol

Courtney&Jay&baby

So.. I've known Courtney since we were in Junior high, tho we didnt become good friends until about 8 years out of high school, unfortunately. However, thanks to social media, we connected, caught up, stayed in touch. I've been lucky enough to photograph some of the major milestones in Court and Jay's lives.. their engagement pics, their wedding (on 6.7.8, fun!), family pics with their dogs, and now.. their first pregnancy. They're having a GIRL and she's actually due on my mama's birthday, thats a good day, guys, lets try to have it then. ;-) I love you guys to pieces and am so happy for you and CANT WAIT to meet baby girl Sotlar! xoJB

FAVE!

you. are. GORGE!
