Every year, I have weddings that fill my heart with propelling joy. They make me say, “YES! This is why I do this!” and give me such good energy that lasts all season. And Andy and Kelsey’s Richmond, VA wedding at the Armour House was one of them. When they told me they were keeping […]

From the moment Mia inquired, I knew we’d work so well together. She and I became email buddies through her planning process. She shared her dress, and asked for makeup and florist recommendations… Mia and James got married in Charlottesville Virginia at the UVA Chapel [complete with entertainment from the Hullabahoos], and it was quite […]

Every once in a while, I have a couple who does something outside of the norm when it comes to their wedding day. This year, it seems like I have more of those than usual, and I’m loving it! Ally and Nate had an intimate wedding at the always-lovely Old Metropolitan Hall in Charlottesville on […]

Washington DC proper has some really fun locations for portraits besides the iconic monuments. You know I love sessions at the monuments… but even more, I love that Mia and James chose a location that meant so much to them. We shot at Meridian Hill Park, near where James lives in DC. These two have […]

I got an email from Lyndsey, sister to a 2017 bride, that she was engaged. It is seriously the biggest compliment when I get to photograph a sibling of a past couple. And, oh, how I love this couple. [And anyone who wakes up for a sunrise session, let’s be serious.] There is something so romantic […]

We had the most gorgeous day in Richmond, Virginia for Lauren and Colin’s Monument Avenue engagement session. I’m thrilled to share this couple’s photos with you. We had a blast walking around the streets of the fan, finding all of the trees in bloom. especially in the “secret” garden these two shared with me.We missed […]

Sometimes it’s hard to pick my favorite thing about my job. Meeting a cute basset-pug-beagle mix named Beaker?! It’s very near the top of the list. Also at the top, when the weather cooperates. On Alex and Luke’s engagement session day, we had predictions of wind gusts up to 30mph – and you’d never know! […]

I’m pretty excited to be posting on my blog again! I had a few months of technical issues that made my site out of commission. But I’m back and so excited to share this session with you from a few months ago! We had a beautiful day in Norfolk with Evelyn and Brent. These two […]

Before Morgan’s Richmond, VA wedding, we met earlier in the year at the VMFA for her bridal portraits! It’s always so sweet to get this extra time with the bride and her family. Morgan slipped into her dress and everyone in the museum stared in admiration [especially the little girls!] as we made our way […]

Lee and Tracy knew each other for so long before they officially started dating, but once it happened, everyone knew they were perfect for each other. Lee is so social and friends with everyone, and Tracy is loyal and such a strong woman – and SO beautiful! One of the most unique things about their […]
