Real Family | Dockins Crew

November 2, 2017
02 Nov 2017

Welcome back, everyone, and Happy November!

I just have to share the spectacular photo session I recently had with the Dockins family. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I truly have the best clients ever! This family was no exception, either.

I met John and Alia Dockins at one of my brother’s annual parties. We soon scheduled a shoot near the National Museum of African American Culture and History. I loved shooting on the National Mall in DC because every direction offers a great scene.

For our shoot, the Dockins’ brought sweaters for their young sons, and even a sports coat for 3-year-old Ian. I was able to work in the props and the outfits they chose, which really made for some amazing photos. I mean, how cute is baby Kyle?

It truly was a fun photo shoot. And if any of you are considering a family session or are prepping for an upcoming session, heed the words of Alia:

“I enjoyed taking the pics with you and would do it again,” she says. Solid advice!

Okay, on to pictures of the Dockins family!

Portraits | Madison the Dancer

November 3, 2015
03 Nov 2015

Hey guys!

Today I have a real treat for you, which comes in the form of 8-year-old Madison. She’s a dancer, and her mom wanted to showcase her talent in the best way possible, especially since she’s beginning to dance more competitively.

You can tell from the pictures that this little girl is energetic–an important trait for a young dancer.  She’s a constant performer and seems to enjoy herself…a lot!

We met up at a private studio in Fairfax, which I loved because of the range of indoor scenery. Madison’s mom, Monica, handled Madison’s hair and makeup herself.

Not only is Madison a talented dancer, she’s also received voice training from Shirley Ables, a member of the Grammy-award winning gospel group, Shirley Ables and the Joy Gospel Singers. As you can see, Madison’s parents have a lot to be proud of.

Her parents also did a really wonderful job choosing outfits for our session.

“We wanted her head shots to accent her natural look, and the dance shots to allow the focus on her dancing ability so we chose a bright pink shirt for the head shots, but a more muted color, simple leotard for her dance shots,” said Monica. I second that info!

Okay, moving on to what you’ve been waiting for. For your viewing pleasure, pictures of Madison, the dancer!

This family was just awesome to work with. I totally look forward to shooting with Madison in the future. “Overall, it was a great experience. Insana is very patient and kind and can really capture beauty with the lens,” said mom, Monica. 🙂

Until next time,

Insana
