Nathan, Mandi, and I met years back … I’m not even going to try to throw out a number because it’s only going to remind me how old I’m getting. 😉 HA! It’s hard to say exactly when we met because growing up in the same town, it could have been from school, family, friends, […]

It seems like this week is all about the rain, but I hope this sunny session brightens your day! <3 Mike, Lauren and I met last week on a perfectttt May day at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Vienna. They were looking for a location with flowers and beautiful greenery, and I knew the perfect place! […]

Happy Monday! <3 I cannot believe we are at the halfway mark of May!!! Say what?! This past weekend was a very, very, VERY special, anticipated occasion!! Alex was promoted to Captain in the Air Force AND graduated from VCU’s School of Medicine! We are all soooooo proud of him and all of his accomplishments! I wasn’t […]

Oh, man! I’m excited to share these photos with you all today! 🙂 The Shenandoah National Park is always a favorite destination of mine, whether it’s for business or personal reasons. The views combined with one incredible sunset is a guaranteed winner in my book! Graham and Rachel love the Shenandoah as well, so it […]

I have photographed at Harpers Ferry more in the past year than ever before, and I absolutely LOVE it! <3 Every time I travel, it’s a new experience/adventure. And really, every session is a new adventure, but I do love good scenery with mountains/water!!! It’s a quaint little town on the water with beautiful hidden […]

How was your Cinco de Mayo?!?! I absolutely love the holiday because I’m a big fan of Mexican food. 😉 Tacos … Margaritas … Guacamole … Chipos. 😉 This past weekend might have been my favorite of all the Cinco de Mayos I’ve celebrated in the past! It definitely involved a yummy taco (Chapman style […]

Danny, Laurie and I met last week at the very location they will say yes to forever. <3 In December, just a day before the clock ticks into the New Year, they will share a kiss as husband and wife at the Winery at Bull Run. Except, we won’t have spring flowers, but maybe flurries? […]

Do you love breakfast? I don’t know about you, but I definitely do!!! And so does Shawn and Elaine! 🙂 On Sunday, they gathered with their closest family and friends in a secret garden at the Rust Manor House in Leesburg, Virginia, to tie the knot. I would say that Shawn and Elaine are not your typical, traditional couple, which I LOVE […]

As I was driving to Bluestone Vineyard, it seemed very familiar. And, in fact, I figured out that I had once photographed an anniversary session at the venue before … a longggg time ago! The distant mountain views are beautiful, and we enjoyed a lovely April Saturday for Nathan and Alexandra’s wedding day!! Once Alexandra […]

Oh, what a pretty day we had for David and Lauren’s engagement! Although, a bit chilly, but Lauren somehow was in tune with the beach sunshine and made it work without a winter coat on. Don’t ask me how she was able to do it because I was a total wimp and wore gloves during […]
