I’ve photographed these lovely kids before! They traveled out of their way to see me last summer, and then were happily surprised I was so much closer once I had moved. This session is the first official session I’ve shot since moving, with all new locations. Some of these are in my backyard!  The T kids are beyond awesome… big Brother R is so laid back.  Sister L is definitely more spunky, and she kept us on our toes.  This session was fun, in that there was a good 30 minute rain storm in between the town shots and the field shots.  So we all hung out in my kitchen in between, lol.

L is her mom’s clone!  Thanks again T family for coming to see me!

I just love the Z family. They are a four-peat family. Little Audrey is near and dear to my heart, and I’ve just loved watching her grow from a newborn, six months, one year and now… all the way to two years old.  She’s grown in beauty and grace, and I’ve really enjoyed chatting with mom & dad during our sessions.    Without further adieu…

Thanks Z family!

I met up with this adorable family at a nearby field for one of my wildflower sessions. The evening of our session couldnt have been a more beautiful and these kids were just ADORABLE in their outfits.  Mama taught them great manners too… as I would try to direct Miss M, and she’d politely say “No thank you.”  Lol, she was a doll, and we persuaded her anyway.   Enjoy this session of these beautiful children!

Thanks V family for choosing Andrea Burns Photography!

Mama H contacted me about shooting a session of her boys, to surprise their active-duty daddy. I just thought it was the sweetest idea! These boys were very sweet, the oldest telling me all about his adventures with his “puppy.” The youngest was a tough cookie, he certainly loves his Mama… and I had to work hard and sing LOUD for the baby smile you see below. But score! I got it! Victory was mine!

Thanks H family… and Dad…. hope you like them too!

I have had clients that I’ve only seen once. I have had clients come back twice. I’ve even had a few “threepeats.” But these W-kids? FOURpeat family! I’ve photographed them three times on their lovely property, and this time I had them in for a Studio shakeup! I LOVE how bright and bold these turned out!






Let me tell you, the only boy in this bunch… “J”… he’s going to make a GREAT husband someday! He was nothing but sweet and cooperative the whole time, even with sisters pushing all over him, lol. Thank you again, again, and AGAIN W family!

Sweet, loveable, easy Caiden came back to play with me again!

You may remember his awesome studio-location session last fall, where he rocked the brick and the sunflare. Caiden is just one of the best…. knew when to smile, when to look pensive, and was just so easy going. He makes my job easy!

Thanks for coming back to Andrea Burns Photography, I love repeat clients!

I love this girl… she’s close to my heart. Mom is amazing and a blessing, and always has Tessa dressed to the nines. Miss Tessa was a little serious for me at our last session together and tried to be this tim around too… but I got some great smiles out of her.

Love you M family!

This is precious Maya. She has some of the thickest blond hair, I’ve ever seen! You don’t usually see such a head of blond hair on a barely-two year old, but here is Maya in all of her glory. I am just in love with her dress (rufflebutts.com) and this color combo of her porcelain skin, hair, dress, and background. Perfection!

Thanks for coming to see me again F family! I’ve loved watching Maya grow!

Birth, One & Two years

A Happy Happy Birthday to my Honey Girl!

I know that some of my Facebook Fans have already seen this duo of sweetness, but I can’t help but blog it.  I’ve been really lax about photographing my three these last couple months and need to change that.  Some clients often ask how I get such nice photos of my children… here’s the secret.  They don’t get full sessions.  I go in like a warrior, with one scene/ set up at a time.  It took me 15 min. to get these two photos, because Audrey wouldn’t grace me with her gaze, let alone a smile.  She was too busy fussing over the grass touching her toes.

Easter is coming, and we’re on our way to my family’s house on the Eastern Shore.  I pinky promise to photograph my kids there a little…. ;)
