Photography is obviously one of those areas that is SOooooOOO subjective. It’s art and what one person VALUES as art another may not rest much on. What you value is something that you hold dear, wedding images should rank up there! Right next to the one you’re marrying 😉 It’s not really uncommon to receive […]

Isn’t it funny how when you are young you are so excited to be 16, 18 and 21 and then….? 21+ just seems to coast and you always see people commenting about not celebrating birthdays. WELL NOT ME!!! I MILK THAT BABY FOR ALL IT IS WORTH. Okay, that could be shameful but it is […]

I love Hampton Roads, it offers me so many gorgeous areas to shoot at and the Williamsburg Winery was no exception. Their grounds provided the perfect fall leaves for Ryan, Jess and Cole’s family session. The funny thing is here, it can be cold and hot the next, dry and a monsoon two days later […]

So, for some reason I don’t get to shoot seniors nearly as much as I would like! I am a self confessed girly girl. I appreciate clothes, makeup, heels, accessories, etc. I love planning outfits and picking every detail to make it an ensemble. It was hands down the most perfect afternoon for Waterside portraits.
