Cooper

Here's my good friend's little 6 month old boy, Cooper. We took him out to some of her land out in the Colorado Hills and had a fun time sitting him in some different spots...he's a hoot! Just a smiley little guy. Enjoy!

I’ve never been one of those girls who gets and silly and weird about babies (I find kids ages 2-7 to be much more entertaining), but I have to admit that these photos are adorable. Nebraska photographer Tracy Raver appeared on the TODAY show this morning to talk about her work, which consists of sleeping newborns (usually just around 2 weeks old).

Tracy says the babies are “naturally very sleepy,” making them pretty easy to work with as subjects. “What we try to work towards is natural curly positions like they would be in the womb,” she said. “They will bend very easily, and when they’re sound asleep you can do just about anything to them.”

Still, she says the environment in the studio is very important for the babies’ comfort. “The babies have to be very very warm, so we crank it up to about 85 degrees,” she said. “And we ask the moms that they have their bellies nice and full before they leave so that the drive to the studio gets them nice and sleepy in the car.”

Tracy uses props like hats and slings, though she says she likes to do something different with each kid and doesn’t really plan it ahead of time. “We kind of just read the baby,” she said. “Little girls tend to be a little bit feistier, so we have to work a little bit harder with them.”

Well here she is again! This time in the studio but with a few different looks for her new website before the Redskins season begins. Check her out!

Sara Outside

We postponed and postponed and postponed until finally it was sunny outside and not horrendous weather....but of course it was tremendously HOT! Poor Sara did a fabulous job posing for her shots in the heart of Georgetown with the heat and her great but warm outfits! We trekked around the city to find a few spots that would work for her look. Here are some of the sneak peaks:

Sara Walsh Sports Anchor/Digital Correspondent of WUSA Channel 9 Washington DC heard of me via Angie Goff of WUSA and decided to get some head shots taken. We had planned to do some studio and some outside, but the weather was horrendous on friday so we just worked in the studio and we'll be doing the outdoor shoot this week! Here are some sneaks from the studio:

Famous 5 Questions: Oh My Goff

You can find my photos of the news anchor Angie Goff here at FamousDC.comFamous 5 Questions: Oh My Goff

July 13, 2009

Oh My Goff, better known as Angie Goff, is the W*USA traffic anchor. She also happens to be the coolest TV personality we’ve ever run across.   A George Mason grad, Angie rejoined W*USA team after a stint as an intern back in 2001.

Angie has also been honored with an Emmy for her work at WIS-TV in Columbia, SC and was a top production assistant on the show Entertainment Tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen … you may never look at Washington, D.C. traffic the same way ever again.

Famous 5 Questions: Oh My Goff

1)      Do people ever tell you that you look like Vanessa Minnillo?

I’ve gotten it before along with Lindsay Price. Hey and I’ll take it– this after once being told my smile/laugh favored Roseanne Barr. Oh High School… so cruel, so cruel.

2)      Michelle Obama calls tomorrow and wants to head out for the evening in DC. Where are you going?

JCREW on Wisconsin– because I know we’d get everything FREE.

3)      Stopped traffic makes news for your morning. What’s the funniest traffic story you’ve heard from inside-the-beltway?

I’ve managed to maintain my composure when a tractor trailer carrying hundreds of pounds of shrimp overturned on the beltway and a disabled Krispy Kreme truck had police on the scene… but honestly the one time I almost lost it on air was when I had to report a Silver Spring accident on Kilkenny Street. All I could think of is "You bastards!" and then there were rats.

4)      What is your favorite Michael Jackson song? Why?

"Bad" no question.
…
Is it bad to admit that I really fell in  love with it after Weird Al did his thing? I knew it was true love when I was in 4th grade I bought a Michael Jackson valentine with the words "BAD" spelled out in chocolate.

5)      Fill in the blank: I read FamousDC because   _______.

I read FamousDC because I love Facebook Status Abuse (does that exempt me?) On Oh My GOFF! I have a little segment called "Inbox Exposed" where I air all my weird, crazy and mean email  and respond publicly with a little wit.. loving wit of course!

**BONUS QUESTION: From Mr. Yogato :

In the movie "True Lies," there is a line when Arnold Schwarzenegger is talking to Jaime Lee Curtis and says "Do it very slowly.  Do it deucimal."  For the life of me, I have no idea what "deucimal" means.  Can you please help?

Based on the word origin of "deuce" I believe whatever he was asking for he wanted it twice as good.
