Ashley and Ian have been with me almost since the start of this whole journey–I am so blessed to call them family! This was my second session with these two lovebirds and it couldn’t have been more fun! I absolutely love getting to work with them, who wouldn’t? I love the way that Ashley looks at […]

I can’t believe another weekend has come + gone! It always seems like they go too fast. I know we have a bad tendency to cram too much into a weekend, but who doesn’t really?! This weekend was extra special for a lot of reasons… 

Man, life in the Dowler household has changed drastically – and for the better – over the last few weeks. What’s been going on, you ask? Well, I’ll tell you…

 I can’t believe Monday is here again! It’s all gone by so quickly. I know I haven’t posted a Dowler Days update in a week or so, but I was trying to hold off until we were able to share our big announcement (NO! Not a baby!). So I’m still holding out before saying too […]

Although life has changed a lot since I was in college (which feels like forever ago but I know really wasn’t…), one thing hasn’t changed: my Ohana. This weekend was truly one for the books – an engagement session with one of my AMAZING couples, celebrating 8 months of marriage with Ryan, a road trip […]

Happy birthday to my little sister! I can’t believe you’re 22, about to graduate from college and interviewing for big girl jobs. Time has really flown by since you entered this world (preemie power) and stole everyone’s hearts. 

In the fall, Arthur asked if I would be willing to take some headshots for him. He’s currently studying musical theatre down at Christopher Newport University and has been in numerous productions over the years. He needed some updated headshots for his school year and of course, I was happy to help! He’s a wonderful actor and CNU […]

Valentine’s Day has never been a huge favorite of mine. But, what I do love is family time! This weekend we got to spend time celebrating three of my family members while seeing one of my favorite shows on stage, eat lots of yummy food and celebrate a special day with my husband and our […]

One of my favorite parts of being a photographer is being there to capture the people in this world who are so in love that they can’t help but radiate with joy and happiness. It all sounds so cliche, but I promise you, it’s not. My couples – dating, engaged, married for a day or […]

In January, I went down to Blacksburg to visit Jessica and Will Bulloss, of Bulloss Photography (check them out HERE) for a mentoring session to start getting ready to jump start my new business. I texted my long time friend, Kristin when I found out I would be where she’s located these days to see […]
