Mac | Newborn

Newborns are amazing, and nothing makes a Wednesday morning better than snuggling one!  McKenna (Mac for short) looks like an absolute doll.  She has two older brothers who are fiercely protective of her and even decorated their home with welcome home signs when she came home from the hospital!  Her parents are enjoying the twists […]

Claire | Sandy Bottom Nature Park Mini Session

Claire is completely adorable, and we had to get this photo session in quick before she lost more of her front teeth!  🙂  So this little champ came out on a snowy Monday and totally rocked the session like she wasn’t freezing cold.  She even did some of her dance moves for us!

Business + Photography Mentoring | Hampton Roads Wedding Photographer

When these ladies asked if I offered mentoring, the answer was an excited Yes!  I just haven’t advertised it because honestly, I didn’t know people wanted to learn from me.  I love love teaching, especially one-on-one.  Instead of me preparing a long speech with references and worksheets, we get to focus on exactly what the person wants to […]

Tina + Christian | First Landing State Park Engagement Photos

It’s engagement season!  It sounds like I’m joking, but I’m not.  This is the time of year where you’re either booking your wedding, or getting your engagement session done… or both!  It’s awesome because we get to know new brides, learn about their weddings, and then get a head start on their engagement session so they […]

Hunter Family | Sandy Bottom Nature Park Family Photos | Hampton, Virginia

One of my very favorite things about this business is that we are almost always referred by previous clients.  People who have gone through the process with us, loved the experience and their products, and told their friends and family about us.  It’s a huge honor!  The Hunter family was referred to us by one of […]
