I’m afraid this post may drag on a bit because of who Amanda has become to me but let’s see where we go! Many of you have seen Amanda Manupella’s name on my page or mentioned when discussing weddings, kid outings, etc. She was the one who shot my gender reveal, who shared excitement about […]

Meg contacted me months(literally April!) ago to start chatting details about family sessions. Well when our schedules finally matched up the weather wasn’t as cooperative! there was literally zero percent chance of rain that day and wouldn’t you know as I was leaving for their session it started to rain, fast and hard. Just as […]

I think the hardest thing for me being pregnant is the anticipation of just who is growing inside me!! You know, making me pee at 3:00 a.m., causing me to eat salads like the lettuce is drying up all over America, making me loop a hairband through my jeans because I just can’t stand those […]

I know I kinda sound like a broken record but when people come to me for multiple sessions it really makes my heart sing! Maria and David (plus his siblings!) were literally one of the very first sessions I ever shot! Maria and I went to high school together and have stayed in touch thanks […]

I say it so much sometimes I feel like a broken record but I really do love it when previous clients ask me back for more memories of their moments in time! That always applies to the Sims! I love seeing Lucas, he was so teeny tiny the first time I met him, and Erin […]

Life has been beyond crazy lately. The beginning of June we finally sold our home and somehow luckily found our ideal home in Virginia Beach. We are no less than 15 minutes from either Sandbridge or the ocean front, in a neighborhood with sidewalks and parks and can ride our bikes to an awesome shopping […]

It is hard to believe that four years ago today, I stood on the Ocean View Fishing Pier beach with sweat running down my back and told Kenny in front of our family, friends and God that I would love him until death and after that I’d love him wherever our souls would go. As […]

I really love getting to meet people I have talked to so much via Facebook! Since Mother Nature has given me some crazy weather this year, we had to reschedule our session but I am thrilled we did! Ended up with perfect temperatures and a very uncrowded street. I hope when you see these images you notice […]
