Alexander Luke

My husband and I welcomed our son into the world on September 9th! He was born at 7:09pm weighing 7 pounds 6 ounces and measuring 21 inches long. Thank you all for your prayers and support!

Trapped Turtle

Jennifer — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 19:37:29 +0000

My husband was mowing the lawn today and came across this cute little turtle in our yard. The fence around our yard was preventing him from escaping. So, we had to show him the way out by lifting him over the fence and putting him on the other side. If you know what kind of turtle it is, please leave it in the comments. Of course, I had to take some photos, but my pregnant belly prevented my from being able to get down on the ground for some direct head on shots. He was actually pretty fast, too! So, I had to stay on my feet. Below is my favorite photo of the little guy. Here are some more photos.

UPDATE: Someone has informed me that this is a box turtle.

Matt & Regina Married, Again!

Jennifer — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 02:05:14 +0000

Matt & Regina got married about a year ago. Since I am nearly 7 months pregnant now, it’s pretty difficult to shoot weddings this summer. So, Matt & Regina agreed to get all dressed up like it was their wedding all over again, and we did a photo shoot in Old Town Alexandria so I can build up my wedding portfolio. It was a fun time! We visited the farmer’s market, walked down King Street to the boating piers on the Potomac River, and stopped at some of the shops along the way. Regina and Matt were an adorable couple, and I wish them many years of happiness together! Below are some of my favorite photos from the morning. You can view the rest of the images here.

This week I photographed a beautiful home in Lovettsville, Virginia for a Realtor named Roger. It’s an amazing 3,400 square foot property on 10 acres of land in Loudoun County. Below are some of my favorite shots of the house. You can view the rest of the images here.

Tonight for dinner, Nick and I made lamb kabobs. They were delicious! Nick will post up the recipe on our personal blog, and I’ll update this post with the link once he’s done that. I hope the photos below make you drool! More photos are here.

Senior Portraits of Ruth

Jennifer — Sat, 22 May 2010 00:51:33 +0000

The home studio is now set up and Ruthie was my guinea pig of sorts allowing me to take her senior portraits in the new studio. We chose a blue background to match the senior portraits of her siblings. We also took some shots outside. The wooded area provided a nice, natural backdrop. You can view the rest of the photos here.

A Birthday Party for the Dogs

Last weekend, I photographed some of the cutest dogs for the 3rd annual dog fundraiser and birthday party for the Alexandria Animal Welfare Shelter. I had the pleasure of working with Toni from Anytime K9. More photos are available here.

Besides moving and celebrating my birthday on Saturday, I also photographed another event for Elizabeth & Terrence. It was a church service and reception with friends to bless their marriage. It was a beautiful time. Here are some of my favorite photos from the event. View more photos here.

Big News!

Jennifer — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 02:27:06 +0000

Well, tomorrow my husband, Nick, and I will be moving from Alexandria, Virginia to Sterling, Virginia! That means Starloft is moving, too.

Also, I am pregnant! Due date is September 8th! If you’re interested in baby updates, we’ll be posting those on our personal blog here. Because of the pregnancy, I won’t be able to photograph any big events this summer. I will be focusing on building my portfolio and doing smaller shoots.

So, needless to say, with all the big changes things may be a little quiet around here for a bit while we get settled.
