Four days before this wedding, meteorologists were projecting the eye of hurricane Joaquin to hit Williamsburg at the exact time of Leigh + Eric’s ceremony.  No biggie, but it might have worried us all just a tad.  We waited, and thankfully Joaquin headed the opposite direction and we just had some light sprinkles for their […]

One of my favorite things about photography is how many different people I get to meet.  Heather first saw our work 5 years ago when we did a senior session for one of her family members, and when she was in town a few weeks ago, she took advantage of that time to squeeze in […]

This family is so full of love and laughter that I could have just photographed them all night!  Angie is a fantastic artist and wanted lots of color throughout her family session, so we chose Phoebus for the location, with some beautiful murals and bright pops of color.  This was also just a few days after […]

Brittany + Chris are real sweethearts.  Seriously.  When your friends give a toast and they have the chance to embarrass the heck out of you, but instead they tell everyone how sweet and kind hearted you are?  Yep– that’s exactly what happened at Brittany + Chris’ wedding.  She’s a nurse and despite working late hours, […]

When I’m at a session, I get a little over-excited about the pictures.  Seriously- the pictures of clients laughing?  Half the time they’re laughing because I’m just a complete lunatic dancing around with excitement over how awesome they look!  So when you give me a gorgeous lady with stunning hair and makeup, a wedding dress […]

This sweet family just celebrated their first year as a family of six.  A year ago this week, they were all in China getting to know Aila and welcoming her into their family.  I’ll never forget the excitement we felt back home– just a tiny slice of the excitement and love they were feeling over […]

Remember the awesome blue & yellow Reverse Wedding at The College of William and Mary?  Lindsey + Jamie are back on the blog today with their highlight film!  If you think the pictures told the story well… my oh my you are certainly in for a treat!  Get ready to fall in love with these two and their […]

Bridal sessions are the most often overlooked part of a wedding.  They’re not very high on the priority list for many, and it’s easy to think “Oh we’ll just get pictures of the dress on the wedding day.”  But oh they’re amazing!!  It’s like a sneak peek of your wedding day.  As the bride, you’ve been […]

Every bride gets a little nervous through the process that it might rain on her wedding day.  It’s that one piece that you can’t control no matter how much you plan.  But for Chelsea, it was a much more difficult situation than that.  There was higher than normal flooding the week leading up to her […]

We knew this day would eventually come.  Josh and I talked about it many times over the years and he knew that when Jigsaw died, it was a day to immediately cancel everything, leave work, and just be together.  Jigsaw was my childhood dog.  His doggie family is a bit of a legend where I […]
