It’s important to have pictures taken… even if you’re not a ‘picture person.’  My brother and his daughters are some of those people.  They don’t enjoy dressing up and getting ready for pictures… they’d rather avoid them altogether!  But I insisted that they let me take some of them… just a few quick snaps to […]

I’ve never had such trouble choosing my favorite photos from a mini-session!  I just feel like each image is gorgeous– between the love shared between these two, the excitement over welcoming a new baby girl, and the dreamy sunset… ahhh… just a beautiful session celebrating a beautiful life!

This sweet family is certainly not lacking in personality and fun!  I was able to get quite a few hilarious shots capturing these fun times! I mean seriously… she looks like a doll!

Ahh… family sessions with fall leaves… gorgeous!

Fall leaves… sweet family… perfection!  This family is special to me as well… they were my first official clients when I moved to Virginia! And their first session?  Freezing cold… so cold I was worried my camera would be damaged from the cold!  But they were troopers.  Thankfully, this session was much nicer weather… and […]

Young family… fall colors… what more could I ask for? This family is also another excellent example of picking out what to wear.  They chose earthy colors that compliment each other, but aren’t matchy-matchy.  Also, who doesn’t love a handsome little fella in plaid?

Often, people ask me what to wear for family sessions.  I suggest complimenting colors, but not being overly matchy-matchy.  This family is a perfect example.  They are coordinating, but don’t all match.  They (okay, the mom) chose to go with blue, brown, and white, and dressed everyone accordingly.  It looks great, they look well put-together, […]

It’s always slightly nervewracking swapping out photo sessions with another photographer.  I met Sarah online through a photography website when I first moved to this area.  She’s always been super helpful and very sweet.  We live about 2 hours away from each other, but decided to meet in the middle– for her family session and […]

Love photographing families multiple years in a row!  And watching little kiddos grow up!

A hometown visit wouldn’t be complete without capturing pictures of my niece Rylie!  My brother and his wife have let me take pictures of her since she was born (even though I wasn’t that great at it!).  I think I’ve improved since then.  😉 And since Christy was expecting baby #2 in this picture, I […]
