Large families have a special place in my heart, so when the Switzer family contacted me about a large family session, I was all about it!  Once we got to Little Island Park in Sandbridge, it turned out to be the most beautiful day with perfect weather.  All thirty five family members were friendly, easy […]

Brenna + Blake are the cutest couple!!  They met in middle school and started dating, and next year they’re tying the knot!  Throughout their engagement session I loved how in tune and attentive they were to each other.  They’re a great mix of young love and old familiarness and that is so beautiful.  It reminds […]

From the moment we started chatting, I could tell Julie was a details kind of gal.  And when I met her & Andy together the first time, it was so sweet because I could see how they just clicked and completed each other!  Both of them have a very warm spirit, love for details, and […]

I’ve been blessed to know the Ubele’s for 4.5 years now, and worked for them for 3 of those years!  Besides being amazing friends, they hold a special place in my heart because they have supported my business since the first day I met them.  They knew I had just moved to Virginia and was working […]

This was my third time working with the Mamot family and I absolutely love them!  For the family project, they decided to include Ashley’s parents in the session, which I think was a perfect choice.  Often, the only picture grandparents or great-grandparents get with their grandchildren are candids while sitting on the couch.  The focus […]

Wait, what?  You offer mentoring?  Yes!  But only if you ask.  I loved talking with Macy over some chicken nachos, and made sure to get a few head shots before the day was over!

Chelsea + David flew in Thursday night and got in bed sometime after midnight… then were at the oceanfront for their engagement session at 5:45am on Friday!  Yes, that’s quite insane, but ohmygoodness look at the pictures!  Sunrise was totally worth the sleepy yawns and coffee overdose.  😉 When we first arrived I was surprised at […]

Tim + Danielle were among the first people we met when we moved to Virginia four years ago.  They were in our first community group at church, so every Monday night we’d meet for snacks, Bible study, and good conversation.  Over the years we see each other less and less because we live a good […]

Living eight hours away, it’s rare that I get to photograph friends from high school; but lucky for me, Jonah + Kelly live just an hour away in Richmond!  Chelsea, Jonah, and I were all 2 years apart in school and spent many a band trip together!  Jonah, Kelly, and I were also all three Math […]

Hey babe.  It’s been a rough couple of weeks.  And a crazy couple of months.  And now that I think about it, the last 11 years have been pretty fast paced. But when I look back at it all, I pretty much think you’re superman.  You’re a great husband, incredible dad, and super talented at […]
