For the third year, I’ve been honored to photograph this sweet family!  The Green’s are on the go with boys just two years apart!  Each year it gets a little more challenging to keep the boys’ attention, but every year the results get that much sweeter.  Snuggling with mama, playing with daddy– these boys are full […]

What better place to have your engagement session that the same area where you’re getting married!  When Brianna mentioned doing their session on Fort Monroe, I was all in.  It has perfect lighting and a variety of locations and backgrounds.  There is so much packed into one little area!  And Mason + Brianna are pure […]

There are so many wonderful things I could say about these two.  They have some of the biggest hearts you’ll ever meet!  They’re kind, welcoming, and really go out of their way to make people feel loved.  A few months ago we met up to visit their wedding location, but stopped for lunch first.  Due to […]

We woke up crazy early that morning in Sofia, Bulgaria, still jet-lagged, but filled with nervous excitement.  Honestly, I still felt like a fraud.  We had this huge support system back home rooting for us, yet we were just regular people.  We’d spent 8 months fundraising and working like mad to prove to two countries that […]

It’s hard to believe, but this was our first time at Ford’s Colony Country Club for a wedding!  We’d done a family session there before, but never experienced their gorgeous space for a wedding.  A stunning indoor space for the ceremony, a separate indoor space for the reception, and plenty of natural light in both? […]

We held our breath as the rain poured down.  I watched the weather forecast like a hawk, and it seemed that maybe, just maybe it would stop raining just long enough to take some portraits outside.  Shannon’s smile never faded, though— she was thrilled it was her wedding day, and there were so many gorgeous […]

Remember how we spent a month in Boston in July?  This family was our secret sauce– the ones that held us together when we were falling apart.  And yet, we never met until July 5th.  You see, these four volunteer their home for families to stay in while our children are at the hospital.  And […]

Kayla + Nick know how to bring the party, and that was such a fun element of their wedding day!  They are truly best friends and have a great time together.  They make each other laugh, love dancing, and made every aspect of their wedding day fun for everyone. When I first walked in, I […]

It’s been a year since I threw my back out.  Not an Oh man, I need pain meds kind of throw my back out.  I was down.  Hard.  I couldn’t move. I had worn my back out over the past decade- a mix of pregnancy, chasing around and picking up my daughter, poor posture, and holding […]

Kaitlin’s father/daughter dance wasn’t a dance at all.  Instead, her father played guitar while she sang to James, her groom.  The room was perfectly quiet except for her voice and the strum of the guitar.  The look on James’ face was priceless.  Complete love, shock, and admiration.  The look of ‘I can’t believe I get to […]
