I love when I admire someone from a distance, and then get to meet them up close!  I saw Lizzy singing at church one day and told Josh how great she was– and then the next week I got to meet her and photograph her and Austin’s first anniversary session!  They are just plain awesome and it […]

I’m a big fan of extended family sessions, and I get to do them several times a year, which thrills me!  Let’s face it– getting everyone dressed and in the same location for photos is basically a miracle.  And for this family, an ocean was crossed in order to make this happen! I’ve known Alicia (in […]

We had an absolutely perfect day for Eden + Drew’s maternity mini-session at Sandy Bottom Nature Park in Hampton, VA!  36 weeks is right about the perfect time for maternity pictures, too.  The baby belly is nice and full, and typically this is right when moms are teetering on the edge of being totally done with […]

We don’t get to do many sessions when we’re back in Western North Carolina anymore.  The time flies so quickly that it’s hard to fit it all in!  But thankfully we got to do a photo session with Brooklyn in the peak of leaf season before all the wildfires hit that area last year.  There was […]

Sometimes this job takes us to the coolest places, and Carson’s senior session is one for the books!  He’s a senior and incredible baseball player at Cherokee High School in Canton, Georgia.  He also happens to be Josh’s cousin and bears our favorite last name.  😉  We were in Georgia a few months ago but […]

Damaris went back and forth on whether or not to do snow pictures. Every season of the year she’s done a photo session to represent that season, so she basically HAD to do snow pictures for winter! But she’s not a fan of snow, so when I texted her to let her know that I’d […]

Maternity pictures in the snow? Yes, please! It’s always a little tricky to schedule though, since we don’t get a ton of snow in Virginia. And when we do get it, it melts away in a few days. Can I just say that we hit it really lucky this year? We hoped to do pictures […]

The biggest compliment to a photographer is when you come back again and again.  This is my second year photographing this awesome family.  They’re sweet and kind with each other and so very beautiful!  It was kind of a chilly day out, but they were down for anything and we got some great pictures over […]

Last year I photographed the Green family for their sons first birthday.  We did a family session and then headed back to their home for a cake smash!  This year they have a new little dude in their family to celebrate!

Oh I just adore this family!  They have the best attitude no matter what hits them in the face.  It’s so hard to get two little kids and yourselves ready for a photo session, but they had everyone dressed perfectly!  And then the temperature dropped, so they put more layers on the kids.  And then […]
