It’s no secret that I have a soft spot for kids with Down syndrome. This darling and her brother kept me busy and laughing on a perfect spring morning in Old Town, Alexandria. It was the kind of day that makes everyone flock outside in DC, but thanks to cherry blossom season, Old Town was relatively calm! Big sister was ALL ABOUT the camera, and her smile only faded when I suggested I photograph her brother alone! Both kids were adorable, both parents were absolutely lovely to work with, and the outfits were on point. I’m a West Coast native who isn’t normally drawn to monograms, but these were perfect and scream “SPRING!”

We ended our session letting the kids play with the new Mirror Mirror exhibit at the waterfront. Mirrors! Colors! We had to drag them away!
