Dear Ryan, I’ve thought about this post for a month. Trying to decide what to say to you to sum up the last year has proved nearly impossible. This year has been crazy – in the most beautiful, life changing ways. We moved into the apartment, moved out into our first home together. We got […]

I will never get tired of photographing Rebecca, Patrick, and Benjamin – I mean, how could anyone? This family is just ADORABLE!  Rebecca contacted me about a mini session since they had just received their fantastic matching shirts from the fabulous Little Lemon Goods and of course, I said YES! Seriously. Aren’t the perfect?  I wanted […]

This past year has been a crazy one for us – newlyweds, our first home, making decisions about the next few years of our lives, growing together and figuring out what makes us the happiest. The first year has always been heralded as the toughest in marriage and it was difficult but not in the […]

You should have seen Ryan’s face when I told him I wanted to interview him (read: ask a few questions on a car ride from Ohio) about our first year together married. He thought I was crazy I think but smiled and said it was fine. I thought this would be a fun way for […]

I honestly can’t believe that another weekend has come and gone! Although it seems like time is going by insanely fast, it also means that we’re ONE week away from our FIRST wedding anniversary!!!!!! And that means our anniversary trip is coming up! YAY! We spent this weekend celebrating our family and fathers from start […]

Father’s day has arrived – the day to celebrate the men in our lives who deserve an extra special thanks and probably an attempt at BBQ in their honor! Father’s day is a chance to recognize the men who have taught us, held us and lead us through life’s toughest moments alongside our mommas. Like […]

This family will forever hold such a place in my heart – they’ve been with me from the start of this business and have seen me through everything! We had a fabulous time on Saturday at Blandy Experimental Farm getting their spring portraits done!  It’s amazing to see how much these kids have grown up […]

Happy birthday to my best friend!! I can’t believe your big day is here again and I really can’t believe you’ve let me stick around for it yet another year! 8 years already?!  You are truly one of the most beautiful people I know – inside and out, Danielle. You work so hard to be […]

Kristin is quite possibly the cutest pregnant lady I’ve had the pleasure of photographing! We met last Wednesday at Old Mill Park in Fredericksburg – which is quickly becoming a new favorite portrait location for me – and enjoyed the warm, breezy night as the sun began to set. She’s welcoming her first baby boy […]

For Thanksgiving in 2015, my family decided to travel down to Myrtle Beach SC, stay in a condo and just relax by the water. Those four days were WONDERFUL but my favorite day of all was when we got to visit the absolutely stunning and historical Charleston. It was my only request since we’d be […]
