Jessica and I connected all thanks to the Virginia wedding industry! She owns a successful wedding planning business in Northern Virginia called, Jessica Ashley Events! 🙂 And while planning a visit to see her dad and family, she reached out to see if I would be their Destin, Florida Beach Photographer. I loved getting together 1,000 miles away from our hometowns! 🙂 It’s a weird season for both of us because June is typically a crazy month for Virginia weddings. But with the pandemic, our schedules look very different than anticipated. So I’m grateful that we were able to get together for a quick session in Destin! And the exciting part was hearing that they are expecting their third little one this December, just a couple weeks before my due date! I’m so glad she’s feeling better during this pregnancy because it can be so challenging to run a business when you feel like you’ve been hit by a bus! Haha!
We got together at the beautiful Henderson State Park in Destin, Florida just missing a storm earlier in the day. 🙂 And thankfully, before the Holiday crowds came in… Although, they weren’t very far from our meeting location (10-miles away) and were in traffic for an HOUR! That’s DC talk… right? Haha! We had to battle the winds and the sun setting, but everyone worked efficiently to deliver a variety of photos… Which is impressive with little ones involved. 🙂 I love the results and I hope you enjoy this little preview from our time together!! Aren’t they all so photogenic?!
Thank You!
Thank you, Jessica and to your family, for having me photograph you all! I know it’s not very often to have everyone together in one spot. So this was a very special gathering worth documenting!! Especially with the news that you’re expecting a new addition to the family! CONGRATS to you all!
