One of the most common questions I get from mamas before their Mother's Day mini session is — what do we wear?! And I completely understand the overwhelm. You want everyone to look coordinated but not too matchy. You want to feel beautiful but also comfortable enough to sit on the floor with your babies. You want colors that photograph well but also feel like YOU. I've got you. As a Northern Virginia photographer who has photographed hundreds of families, I've seen what works

When families reach out to book their newborn session at Tiny Bliss Photography, one of the most common questions I get is — should we include the whole family?

At Tiny Bliss Photography in McLean, Virginia, we have the privilege of witnessing these moments every single day — and every time, it takes our breath away. This Mother's Day, we w
