Chris & Hayley

Chris & Hayley | Markham, Virginia Apple Orchard Maternity Portrait Photographer

The years are passing by faster than I can keep up with. Chris and Hayley are about to celebrate their first year anniversary (CONGRATS!!!) and I am SO thrilled for them as they are expecting the sweetest little girl, Taytum! I just know she’s going to be precious just from the sweet and outgoing personalities of her lovely parents. As I was photographing Chris and Hayley Monday, I could not help but to reflect on their joy filled wedding day last November. They have a strong, admirable marriage that continues to grow and I am so honored to document that sweet love. I look forward to keeping up with their story not just as a married couple, but as a family. 🙂 I just know that they are going to be amazing parents! So happy for you two!!!!! CONGRATS!!!

Thank you Chris and Hayley for a fun time together!!! I loved catching up with what has been going on over the past year and looking forward to seeing where God takes your marriage and family!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 XOXO! Love you both!
