I have a special place in my heart for this gem of a family. Cam & Meg were among the first people I photographed when I picked up a “nice” camera several years ago. They had only been married a short while when they found out they were pregnant with their oldest, Flora. They were our good friends and reached out to me to help announce their pregnancy. From that moment on, they were my faithful subjects on which to practice my newly learned skills. Those early years were tough as I learned my craft, and Cam & Meg were right there to give me the confidence I needed to celebrate my wins and learn from my failures. They trusted and supported me every step of my photography journey, and it is my absolute PLEASURE to give them these beautiful photos of their little family.

At the beginning of this year, I teamed up with House of Nataliah for a special giveaway that included professional hair and makeup with Nataliah and a couples session with me. After hundreds of entries, Kamryn & Lawson were my lucky winners! Kamryn was so excited when she won. “I never win anything!” were the […]
Scott & Carolyn officially joined their lives in matrimony amongst a backdrop of spring florals, surrounded by beloved family and friends. Their ceremony and reception were held at The Maine of Williamsburg, a breathtakingly beautiful new venue in Williamsburg, Virginia.
