After blogging about the sessions I photographed at Rocky Mountain National Park, I want to share a personal post from our spring experience there! 🙂 Alex and I stayed for the first time last summer while my parents were in town. We saw moose, elk, and more! During the summertime, the wildflowers turn the mountains into different […]

Just hours before their flight back to the east coast, James and Claire woke up early to take some photos in the sunshine! If you saw their dreamy Dream Lake wedding photos from the day before, we didn’t even have the chance to change into Claire’s traditional attire because of the frigid temps! By the […]

James and Claire flew from the east coast (do you recognize them from their Chincoteague Beach session?) and were surprised to find that spring in Colorado really meant SNOW at Dream Lake for their wedding photos. And to be honest, I expected snow on the ground, but I was not expecting a snowstorm during their portraits, […]

To enjoy the beach (if you live in Virginia) might mean driving to Virginia Beach, OBX, Myrtle Beach, or Delaware (all popular choices). But one of my favorite beaches is Chincoteague (Assateague) Island in Virginia, and I loved that James and Claire wanted their portraits there! When I was younger, my Girl Scout troop would […]

I met Tom and Jenn for their engagement session in Washington DC last spring, and after hanging out with them, I knew their wedding was going to be one to remember! 🙂 But I had *no* idea that we would battle the unpredictable weather. Fortunately for us, it actually worked in our favor (as you’ll […]

What a season!! As a photographer with businesses in Colorado Springs and Virginia, there can be challenges. With Jack being so out of routine, I saw how much it affected him as well as myself. But it’s also very rewarding!! I’m grateful for the time with family and friends in Virginia while also being in […]

The Faber family and I woke up early to meet at the Tidal Basin and document this season of their life while their girl is two years old. It’s a familiar season as my son is the same age as well which made this session fun because I know how to talk 2-year old. 😉 […]

Wine & Nosh at Spruce Mountain Ranch is organized by the incredible Sarah Viera Events and the talented Southern Charm. This bridal show is an intimate boutique experience for couples. And unlike typical bridal shows (which can be overwhelming and feel very salesman-like) Wine & Nosh is an upscale, curated vendor team with the heart to serve couples […]

Some things Jessica and Maxx enjoy together — Trips to Colorado, skiing, attending Broncos games, hiking, and dancing. We covered *almost* everything in this engagement session (except skiing and football) at Sapphire Point in Colorado! 🙂 They flew out from Virginia to have this season celebrated in the mountains. While I photograph many of my […]

When Jessica, Maxx, and I talked over the phone during our initial meeting, they mentioned how much they love Colorado. For Jessica, it’s all about skiing. For Maxx, it’s all about hiking! It sounds like they need to move out this way. 😉 This session was their first professional photographer shoot, and I was excited […]
