Gosh, I’m so overwhelmed by the support I received over the past couple of weeks, especially after the most recent blog post! My heart behind that post was to connect with those who are familiar with heartache and that there is HOPE. <3 I have had so many reach out to me, and I thank […]

I didn’t think I was going to share this on my blog, but I built up the courage to press “publish” because I know there are others who can relate and can appreciate honesty/vulnerability. I was worried by sharing these words today that it might show that I’m “weak,” but I also realized that by sharing […]

Ah! Kevin and Catherine are MARRIED!!! I couldn’t be more happy for these two. They have been together since HIGH SCHOOL, so this celebration was anticipated. 🙂 I have enjoyed this journey with them and cannot believe their wedding day is done! At least they will have these memories to always remember the day. <3 […]

When Erik, Danielle and I were brainstorming ideas for their maternity session, my parent’s farm came up as an ideal location because of the wildflowers and open fields. 🙂 I’m thankful the flowers held out a little longer than expected because another plant started to invade due to the spring rain. Thank the Lord! Although we […]

I hope you had an enjoyable and relaxing weekend! 🙂 I cannot believe wedding season has officially begun! This winter season flew by soooo fast, but I’m excited to be back photographing sweet and joyful couples!! If Saturday is any indication of what is ahead, minus the rain, then this year is going to be a good […]

I’m still in disbelief the Second Annual Runaway Brides 5k Fun Run is over!! The past six months I must have poured at LEAST 250+ hours to make this event happen. I can admit … even some sleepless nights — But trusting God was key since this is all to serve Him and His mission […]

When I moved into my house last year, I was more concerned about exterior details looking situated. I knew going into the 2017 year, I wanted to focus on organization, especially in the kitchen! In January, I went through every cabinet and drawer and listed general kitchen utensils, appliances, plate ware and everything in between […]

It seems as though spring bloomed on my blog, thanks to this colorful session!! Stephen and Gabby’s engagement session would have been the first official face-to-face introduction, but I ran into them a couple months ago, along with their families! Just meeting the “crew,” I already know their wedding is going to be entertaining! 🙂 Oh, […]

It has been a year of sharing fun DIY projects and decor ideas, and I’m continuing the series today! I have shared teasers of this room, but this is the first time I’m sharing the entire space on the blog. 🙂 It’s time to give you a tour of the guest bedroom, one of my […]

I couldn’t believe our luck! While I was driving out to Manassas, a rainstorm popped up out of nowhere and made me question whether or not this was going to work out. Fortunately, the storm passed, and we ended up with beautiful diffused light during our time together! 🙂 Even after the session, we were […]
