Weeks of anticipation led to Alex and Taylor’s beautiful engagement session on Skyline Drive. It was a PERFECT fall day, and after weeks of stalking the weather (Taylor admitted), we were relieved to make this shoot happen! 🙂 There’s a lot of prep that goes into a shoot, so we want it to work out […]

It’s not very often when I meet my couple for the first time the day of their wedding. Well, Sunday morning was my first time meeting Ryan and Despina, and it wasn’t long before these two became my new friends! Haha! They are one of the most appreciative, encouraging, loving and beautiful (inside and out!) couples […]

Saturday was FINALLY the day Eric and Tracy tied the knot!!! So let me tell you all about the day from my perspective, along with the photos below! 🙂 Not too long after I walked onto the Mount Vernon grounds, I found Tracy standing close to the George Washington painting holding a hilarious, yet natural, […]

What a sweet couple!!! Just looking at these photos, even without knowing them, you must think the same thing. 🙂 I really enjoyed the opportunity of photographing John and Shannon’s engagement, but also getting to know them when we weren’t shooting. We met at a local apple orchard where the apples were in clear sight […]

Gosh, so much to update on this blog post since I didn’t do a “Weekend Recap” last Monday due to Columbus Day. Not like I really took the day off, but I did lessen the typical Monday workflow by not blogging. 😉 I’m in the midst of the “fall craziness,” but I’m surviving. Even if […]

What a dreamy engagement session!!! That’s all I could think when I left last Thursday’s engagement session. We had the most incredible sunset, and I’m so glad we took advantage of the colorful skies by the water! David, Michaela and I met at the beautiful Mount Vernon estates, where we were able to run around […]

Jonah and Hannah are MARRIED!!! Wahoo! I’m so glad my brother (Hannah’s “Dude of Honor”) introduced me to Jonah and Hannah because they are a ray of sunshine! I love looking through these photos and seeing their happiness and genuine mannerisms! Hannah has a way to brighten your day and make everyone feel loved. Her […]

Michele and I met back in … 2008?? I cannot quite remember the year, but it has been a while!! We were both in the MRDs as piccolo players (GO DUKES!!!) and I remember making the connection with her right off the bat when we realized our hometowns weren’t that far away from each other. […]

Going into Adam and Laura’s wedding, Laura described the day as “simply elegant.” What I loved about their special day was their focus on their guests. They were surrounded by dear family and friends Sunday evening as they tied the knot! 🙂 And gosh, it was a PERFECT day for their celebration!!! The weather was just […]

I pulled into the apple orchard to meet Jacob and Brittany for the first time, but I realized that this might not have been my first time passing by Brittany. Turned out that Brittany lives just around the corner from me! Small world. 🙂 They gave me a good laugh, though, when I first got […]
