Let’s pause my own photography and spotlight another photographer’s work! That other photographer is someone VERY special to me. <3 In fact, when Alex asked me on our first date, I remember scrolling through his Instagram with a friend of mine admiring all of his travel photography work! I thought that he had a natural […]

I’m surprised I’m so “with it” right now after waking up at 4:20 AM to photograph a DC sunrise session followed by a workout! It might be because photographing Keith and Lauren’s cherry blossom session was unbelievably magical?! Or because the DC traffic was soooo horrendous that it shook me awake? HA! I’ll take the […]

I’ve known Emily for YEARS. And I’m afraid to count how many because then it reminds me of my age. 😉 Her older sister, Lindsay, and I have been great friends since early high school, and because of that friendship, I was able to meet this sweet young lady!!! As soon as Emily and I […]

Warrenton, VA is a small town — Especially growing up in the area. When I met Josh and Brittney, it felt as though we were able to bounce connections back and forth which is always fun! It turned out Josh is also a fellow Duke (#godukes!), but besides that exciting discovery, I LOVED getting to […]

Time is FLYING. It’s APRIL? Really??? Things are about to get crazier too with wedding season just weeks away! Once the end of April hits, I’m sure things will be a blur … Until then, I’m looking forward to warmer temps, sunshine, and times with family and friends!!! <3 I was just looking at my […]

I love how business connects and reconnects me with new/old friends. <3 I photographed Emily and George’s maternity session years ago and it’s hard to believe seeing their little ones running around now!! And what a darling family! This session happened rather quickly since I planned to visit Richmond this past week. Since they moved […]

I was asked by several followers to post about the recent barn door I hung in Alex’s house!! 🙂 Although, I wish I had professional photos and a staged room to share with you … But hey! This is real life! 😉 His bed is on the ground and there isn’t one photo hung in […]

Oh, these two. <3 When I got together with Alex and Taylor a couple of months ago in downtown Culpeper regarding their exciting news, I was excited about the opportunity to hang out since their wedding last year!!! I was also THRILLED and honored they asked me to take maternity announcement portraits! We got together […]

Looking through my points below, it doesn’t look like a very productive week but it was a pretty jam-packed seven days! I’ve been working so hard on making my house brand new again as well as staging/decluttering every room! It’s a very time-consuming task, but worth it!! Now that my house is done for now, […]
