I’m thrilled to get to share these images with you! Jonathan and I had so much fun exploring downtown Fredericksburg VA to gather images for his fall look book video! The look book is a great chance to share some of the fall trends, colors + exciting new outfits for the season. I absolutely love […]

The Bolek family is a special bunch, without any question! Earlier in the year, I donated a session to the Barrie School’s silent auction. I was so excited when Clare emailed me letting me know she had been the winner + they were hoping to get their family pictures done in October. What a perfect […]

You might not know this about how I run my business, but I sit down every month and plan out all the blog posts I’m going to be writing into my calendar. It’s not a perfect or hard fast system – things change, sessions come up, real life happens. But this post has been on my […]

Jonathan Curtis is here again to talk about prepping your make up for pictures. These tips are great for head shots, weddings, engagement, maternity and family sessions!

My sister-in-law, Brittany, and I had joked back and forth about running a half marathon together for awhile (she’s a much better and more serious runner than I am so most of the joking was probably on my side honestly but either way it was fun). I’d signed up for races before (much shorter ones) […]

While my niece was visiting in the spring, I captured a few pictures of her and one of our boys, TOC. Savannah was just infatuated with the cat, running up and down our stairs telling us “I want a meow” and watching our boys lay around. TOC is a weird cat – he LOVES water […]

Last week, I was so lucky to get to travel with my best friend, Danielle, down to the Outer Banks. She accompanied me and put up with my crazy behind while I was in the OBX for Amanda Hedgepeth’s Salt Air Motherhood Experience (more to come on that)! As a thank you (and because I […]

If you follow me (or really any other photographer) on social media these days, you’ve probably seen my reminder that fall mini sessions are open for the year! I thought I would take a minute today to tell you a few more details, provide the link to sign up and share a few of my […]
