Katherine, Ben, and Judd
National Arboretum
Washington, DC
April, 2007
I had another fun photo session at the beautiful National Arboretum, this time with Katherine, Judd, and their son Ben. Ben celebrated his first birthday that weekend, so it worked out wonderfully that I was in town for his one-year family portraits. Ben has some of the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen, and I was completely enchanted by him. I think he had a lot of fun during the photo shoot, too. What a cutie!

About Me
Hi, I’m Charlotte! I’m a photographer in Reston, Virginia. I love hiking, running, and exploring the world with my husband and young son.




Hahah, I love the shot where the kid’s feet are swinging towards the lens. Not everybody has “it,” but he’s definitely got “it,” very photogenic!
adorable photos… and wow, those really are some blue eyes!
Charlotte,
You have proven once again that you are the perfect photographer, and I am honored to be your friend.
Thanks!
Chris
Awwwww, LJ friends! K & her family look great – lovely photos!
I had sooo been looking forward to seeing these. They are awesome! I’m sure Katherine is/will be THRILLED with how they turned out.
yayy! glad I logged in this morning to see these!
thanks Charlotte! Can’t wait to see the rest!
tooooo cute! What great shots you got of this family!!
Lovely shots again. The kid’s blue eyes are gorgeous!
Amazing as always. I can’t wait to see how our photos turned out. It was so great to see you.
really beautiful images. he is quite a cutie!
did you use fill flash for these?
Nope, no flash on these. Instead, my cousin joined us as my assistant, and she held a reflector as fill light.
It was great to see you and Lisa, too. Your photos will be ready in a few days.
Hi Katherine! I’m so glad you like them! There are lots more, too.
Take your time. Everything you do is always worth waiting for.
Oh wow, thanks, Chris. I had a wonderful time last night, and I’m so grateful that you and Catherine included me on such an important night. I can’t wait to show you the photos. They should be ready in about a week.
Beautiful pictures!
Great pictures!!! I’ve “known” Katherine for a while now on LJ, so I am thrilled to see these pictures of them.

They are a nice looking family, and Ben is adorable.
