Kemper & Mandy | Burlington Plantation Engagement

Let me introduce you to Kemper and Mandy!  Two best friends who inevitably fell in love…over calculus homework.  These two met at Richard Bland College where they both played golf.  They started out being just friends, never thinking it could turn into anything more.  So many great love stories start out that way, right?  I […]

Lyndsie & David | Stony Creek Maternity Session

It has been a minute since I’ve done a blog post.  I always have such great intentions of blogging multiple times a week and then…life…so I don’t.  But I do try to get my beautiful clients up here as often & quickly as I can!  Today, I have such a beautiful maternity session for y’all!!  Lyndsie & David are expecting a baby boy in about 6 weeks (or less) and I am so excited for them!  They are about to experience the most beautiful, life altering, terrifyingly wonderful time of their lives.  Am I right or what?

Preparing For A Home Newborn Session

Lifestyle Newborn Sessions have quickly become my favorite way to capture a newborn.  I used to have a home studio and I loved it!!  However, it didn’t become logical for me to do anymore so I phased out of it. I truly love studio newborn photography and know some girls who are simply incredible at it, though!  If it is something you are interested in for your baby, I can send you their way.  But the newborn photography I love to shoot is all lifestyle.

Our Love Story | Happy Valentine’s Day

Since it’s Valentine’s Day, I thought it would be fun to tell the story of us.  How Anthony & I came to be a couple.  If you are going off of the amount of time that we actually dated, this would be a very short story.  But, if we are going from when we met, this story is 30 years old.  I promise I won’t make it too long though.  Some of these photos are pretty hysterical though so have fun with that.
