Wenger Family | Willow Spring Farm at Mossy Creek

December 10, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
We partnered up with Willow Spring Farm to have mini sessions at their venue. The Wengers were quick to sign up and they were such a fun family! In addition to inside photos, we managed to get some beautiful family portraits outside before the rain hit again. Willow Spring Farm also provided a fun treat at the end of the session! What can be better...

Cline Family | Fall Session | Bridgewater, VA

November 26, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
We have known Melissa and Ben for a very long time. However, we haven't seen them in a few years, so it was exciting to see the two adorable additions to their family. The kiddos did such an amazing job. They even had a fun treat (gummy bears, of course) at the end of the session for being such amazing models. Fall sessions are always a blast with...

Nikki + Aaron | Wedding | Hahn Horticulture Garden

November 09, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
Nikki and Aaron's gorgeous garden wedding was truly a blessed day. Even though, the first part of the wedding, rain prevailed, after the ceremony the sun came out! One of the most touching moments was right before Nikki and Aaron had their first look. It started pouring at the moment when they were about to do the first look, Nikki whispered, "I ju...

Yev Studios | Why You Should Do a First Look

August 06, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
One of the most common questions I get asked as a wedding photographer is, "Should we do a first look?!" From my own wedding, as well as shooting many weddings, I would say, "yes, Yes, and YES!" My top 3 reasons to do so are... #1 You have a private moment together. At the ceremony you have everyone there, and there is just no time to enjoy t...

Podgayskiy & Shumeyko | Children's Lifestyle Session

August 02, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
Here's another annual Myrtle Beach vacation in the books. As the parents are having kid-free time, grandparents are using this time wisely, taking photos of their grandchildren. Honestly, I'm amazed how well they got them to "look at the camera", because that is no easy task. Here are some my favorite shots from our week...

Shumeyko & Podgayskiy | Family Beach Session

July 28, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
It's the most wonderful time of the year! Summer vacation, that is. This time around our annual photo shoot happened on 4th Milana's birthday, so double the awesomeness. We had so much fun getting the kids to look at the camera and put on their best smile (please read in sarcastic tone of voice). Nevertheless, it was another amazing time together!...

Kortney + Cody | Wedding | Lydia's Barn at Evermore Farm

July 12, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
What was an extremely rainy spring in Virginia, Kortney and Cody's wedding was still very beautiful. The rain held off long enough for us to capture gorgeous portraits outside, and everyone had a amazing day, regardless. I loved each elegantly chosen detail and the fun bridal party. The drive to Lydia Mountain Lodge is absolutely stunning. The pict...

Davidson Family | Bridgewater Arboretum

May 18, 2018  •  1 Comment
One of my favorite things about being a photographer is getting to see families again and again. Being a photographer is not just taking a photo, but it is an experience of connecting with others. Life isn't always perfect, however, regardless of what is going on in life, it's nice to see an image and remember all that was happening in that time of...

Samantha + Drew | Engagement | Bridgewater Arboretum

Samantha and Drew were our engagement session giveaway winners. They were such a cute couple, giggling and smiling the whole entire session. Drew just graduated from Bridgewater College (go Eagles!) and Samantha is a nurse (just in time for Nurse Appreciation week - thank you, nurses for all you do!). Their wedding is less than a month away - the s...
