The day started with Billy and Courtney’s church arriving at 7 a.m. in the beautiful Marshall area to decorate/prep food for their special day. Courtney’s mom told me that without the church community, they would not have been able to do this. It was obvious how much of a blessing the church was to their […]

Months prior to the big move, I had a list written out with furniture to purchase. I created budgets for every room in the house and prioritized the expenses based on the research I did online. I knew in the living room that I had my eyes set on a nice couch which meant that […]

Starting this week off on a great note! Although, yesterday started off groggy after a double header wedding weekend. Feeling SO much better but I have to say that our bodies know when we need rest. I’m thankful I was able to take some time for myself and relax a little bit while prepping for this […]

I just want to shout out to my beautiful mother as today is her Birthday! Not just that, but last week we celebrated my grandmother’s 75th birthday while she was visiting. 🙂 What a great way to end this month by celebrating the two beautiful women in my life! I scheduled my house warming party […]

James and Natalie’s wedding day was the perfect start to the year! Everyone hears that rain is a GOOD thing to be present on a wedding day. What’s even better is when the rain comes and leaves before any wedding festivities begin. By the time I arrived at the beautiful Oatlands Historic House & Gardens in Leesburg, Virginia, the […]

It feels like I have known Alex forever! I was first introduced to her back when my friends, Nick and Michelle, got married yearssssss ago. Alex was actually their wedding photographer!!! Because of the photography industry, we have kept in touch over the years and consider ourselves coworkers. 😉 She’s a fabulous Beauty and Boudoir Photographer […]

Hope everyone enjoyed the weekend! A little rain Saturday morning was just what we needed to brighten up the flowers/grass. My sod is looking a little sad right now but we can disregard that. 😉 Speaking of my house, I had some close family and friends come over yesterday to come check out my space […]

After months of anticipation, my official wedding season kicks off this Saturday with James and Natalie! It’s crazy to think that my final wedding last year was way back in November. By far the longest slow season I have had my entire career. Don’t let the words, “slow season” mislead you.  But why do I call […]

To be honest, this was a different shoot than I’m use to. Although a challenge is always great for pushing creativity! Just because this was a conservative shoot doesn’t mean that it’s impossible to capture the fun and personal moments. I wanted to capture their true personalities without crossing any lines but I have to admit […]

Did you enjoy your weekend? Wasn’t the weather just amazing?! So glad that spring finally decided to come and STAY! 🙂 Just in time for wedding season to pick up this weekend! But goodness, where did the winter “slow” season go? Even though the “slow season” slipped right out of my hands, I cannot say […]
