The Captured Life Photography bio picture

Welcome to my blog!

Hey, I'm Tosha thanks so much for visiting my blog! I'm a Washington DC Metro area based photographer who loves to have fun. I'm also a mom of three fun loving kids who have inspired me to do what I do (besides running from me when I come anywhere near them with my camera!) as well as a wife to a wonderful husband who says that I am "eclectic" (just a kind way of saying I'm a weirdo I guess). I use only available light, shoot in my natural light studio or on-location. It's my goal to create timeless art for you and your family that expresses who you truly are in this point in your lives. I absolutely love what I do, and I look forward to capturing your life!!

So looking forward to taking this journey with you and if I get a little crazy on set you know the images are gonna be ROCKIN'! So thanks for stopping by ~T

Baby’s Home!

Monday, March 23, 2009

This session meant so much to me because mommy is a good friend of mine. I have watched baby Asher come to life from conception up until I saw him yesterday in the crook of his daddy's lap snug as a bug. have had to endure listening to mommy's questions, BOOKS, concerns about motherhood and reassuring her that she is going to be a fabulous mom! I hate to say I TOLD YOU SO x 10 million! They rock as parents I tell you. That little boy was showered with love from the moment he was born with godmommy here from Florida to auntie coming down all the way from Jamaica! I always tease them by saying "You're going to spoil that boy" but I tell you, if I had that little Bubba with me, he would just have to be one little spoiled boy and that's that!

Rach and Ains, thank you so much for allowing me to take part of Asher's life from conception to most likely the birth of his own children! I tell you this will be one well documented kid if have anything to do with it . You all represent the fabulous life of 21st century parenting very well! Love you guys!

Cherish this Moment

Tuesday, October 28, 2008

I love photographing new moms! It always brings me back to
the moment when I was a new mom and if I could only go back in time to be able
to capture that moment in this way I would.
This couple had that new baby glow all over them. You could tell they were excited and anxious
to meet their new little one. It was
written all over their faces. Mom glowed
with that baby glow that we all wish we could put in a bottle and douse it all
over us like baby oil. There are soooo
many photographs to choose from so here is a little sneak peek. Their little
bun is in for a treat when they are welcomed into the world by so much love.

Mom and Dad! Thanks for allowing me a peek into your love
fest and I can’t wait to do part 2 when your little bundle arrives!

Crazy In Love

Wednesday, October 22, 2008

These two love birds are so adorable. I always say that the truth about relationships can be told in a photo session. You can "say" how much you love someone, but the camera lens doesn't lie. If the love is there it will show in the interaction of the couple. It was apparent from the time we met these two that love was in the air. In addition to that, we had constant comedic entertainment from the groom himself. Cas you definitely missed your calling as a comedian. Hilarious! Thanks to the both of you for allowing us to capture one of the most important days of your lives. We know your images will be ones for you to enjoy for many years to come. Congratulations to Cas & Sheryl. Hope you have a wonderful honeymoon!!! Here's a sneak peek of your beautiful wedding day!

Tough Little Boy!

Saturday, October 11, 2008

Yet another one year old play date who gave me a run for my
money!! He was ready to go from the
moment we met. Showing me all his toys and
cute moves. Little Myles was a ham. Even when he cried he smiled. We had a lot of fun together and decided to
invite the entire family to join in including Cody the cute little dog. I tell
you little Myles enjoyed every moment of this shoot. From the toys, to the swings at the
playground to the bubbles. This little boy can show you what enjoying the
little things in life really means.
