I’m so excited to finally share Mallory’s bridal portraits with you!  She is so elegant and well put together, yet makes the funniest faces!  We decided to do the portraits at Colonial Heritage in Williamsburg, Virginia, which is where their wedding reception was held a few months later.  Not only was it a gorgeous location, […]

It’s funny how time changes our perspective.  When I was in high school my parents bought me a used Nissan Sentra.  It had 73,000 miles on it and their goal was for me to not be on the side of the road with car troubles. At first, it was awesome!  It wasn’t the shiny new […]

When I was pregnant with our daughter I loved sorting through thousands of names to find the perfect name.  I’ve always loved names and their meanings, so getting to pick a name for another human being wasn’t something we took lightly.  We had a few criteria to start with: 1) Easy to spell 2) Easy […]

Have you ever had a photo grab you & leave you speechless?  Bring back a memory?  A photo that you just can’t stop looking at? This is that photo for me.  Josh took it the other day just playing around, and I found it while editing some head shots that were on the same memory […]
