Virginia Beach portrait and lifestyle photographer specializing in comfortable portraits and candids
Over the past couple of years, I have gotten to know Anna as a fellow photographer and now as a friend. One of my best friends. We’d been talking for over a year about vacationing together – even introduced our husbands to see if they got along – and we finally made it happen! We […]

If you want to see the beginning of our trip, be sure to go back HERE. If you’re interested in seeing our anniversary session, go to THIS POST. We left Hana and checked into our resort in Wailea! Wailea is so different, in every way from Hana, so it almost felt like a different vacation. We […]

As most of you know, Chad and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary in Maui this past October. It is our favorite place on earth. And when I think about Maui, I think of this amazing road and the blessing it has been to me and Chad. I think some of the best days of our […]

I try to get photographed at least once a year to remind myself what it’s like. I find I can better relate to my clients if I, too, have a “What should I wear” crisis, and a, “I’m so nervous!” chat with my husband before the session. For our 5 year anniversary, I wanted this […]

The island of St. John grew on me daily. It’s so different than any place I’ve ever been. First impressions were overshadowed by the driving. On St. John you drive on the other side of the road, but the roads are crazy. You’re either on a massive hill or gnarly switchback… or both. It took […]

Just over a month ago, Chad and I spent a week in Nashville with my parents. Country music has always been a big part of my life, and Nashville made the history of the entire genre come to life! Here was our completed list of “things to do,” in Nashville! Stay. Union Station Hotel. Eats. […]

The Grand Wailea, Maui. Thompson Road, Upcountry, Maui. Ho’okipa Lookout, North Shore, Maui. Waianapanapa State Park, Maui. Final Day in Maui. Poipu Beach, Kauai. Developed and scanned by The Find Lab. Y’all these people made me feel like I could DO THIS film thing! With several more BAD exposures than good, they gave me pointers and did they’re […]
