I’ve had the privilege of exploring many new venues this year and Shadow Creek was one of them! I arrived early Saturday to scope out the property and to decide whether or not the ground was doable for running around. I have to admit that the ground was pretty saturated but the wedding party were troopers […]

Todd and Lynee got married at the beautiful Antrim 1844 Country House Hotel in Maryland last Friday evening. Despite the never ending rain last week, we managed to work through it! The rain was pretty consistent the entire day which led to us moving indoors for the ceremony, but I’m glad we took advantage of the gardens […]

For the past four years, I have hosted “Christmas Mini Sessions” around the first week of December. It’s a great way to get into the Christmas spirit, especially since I have photographed the mini session portraits at a local Christmas tree farm! Perfect for those Christmas cards! If there is enough interest, I will host […]

After this talk about taking last week off to relax, I ended up using the intensional time to catch up with some things that were a little behind (in my eyes). I think it’s funny when I hear people say that “you’re your own boss, you can do it later”, but the reality is that it […]

Well, I’ll start off this blog post by saying this is not a typical day/week for my blog, but after church on Sunday I really felt like God planted this in my heart for a reason… Over the years, I’ve been referred to as the “go-getter”. What really defines a “go-getter”? The dictionary describes it […]

Who’s excited for FALL?!?!? What a weekend!!! Even though I didn’t have a wedding to photograph, my weekend was busy attending a wedding as a guest (where I even had the opportunity to dress up in a sari <= SO much fun), enjoy a bachelorette party at the Bobby McKey’s Dueling Piano Bar (that place is […]

So the Ramsey family has been a part of my business fall season for the past two years, since 2014! Sounds like a long time ago but I have really enjoyed watching this family grow and show off their personalities more and more over the years. We have met all over Northern Virginia, but this […]

This journey all started when I met Rachel at McKinsey Development years ago. She was this sweet, bubbly girl who shopped at Charming Charlie and I just knew I wanted to be friends with her! We stayed connected every time I was hired for some sort of internal job which eventually led to her contacting […]

It has almost been a year ago since I photographed Nathan and Jaricia’s wedding day. 🙂 Their celebration was filled with incredible handmade details ranging from metal to wood work. Everyone came together to make their special day a day to never forget! Fortunately, they were able to have their outdoor ceremony despite the rain. […]

This rainy morning has me feeling so at ease. Everyone in Northern VA knows that we are dealing with a drought so rain is a GOOD thing! Although, I’m ready to get back into my pjs, get cozy on the couch and read a book … I wish! 😉 I finished cleaning my equipment from Saturday’s […]
