Senior Model shoot {Seniors}

April 8th, 2012

I so enjoyed photographing these three lovely ladies this week, it was an adventure for sure. We had boxes and bags of clothing over flowing out of my Sequoia and all over the sidewalk. It’s was a hoot to say the least. We had very limited time and I was a bit worried about not getting enough of each of them but as most things do it worked out perfectly in the end. I can’t express enough how much I love photographing this age of life, it is such an exciting yet challenging time. Becoming an adult, making plans Ahhh…Ok, enough about that. We have so many gorgeous pictures to share with you…seriously could these girls possibly be any more beautiful? I think not! I had never done this kind of group senior shoot before but I simply love it. There was so much energy and there was no compromise of capturing individuality at the same time. I love how each one has such a different vibe to their shoot, something that is very important to me.


I hope you enjoy your sneak peek, I so enjoyed meeting you and spending the lovely evening being fabulous.


Lots and lots and lots of laughter…




































Just one more for good measure…and because I just can’t stop. Girls good luck on all of your many adventures to come, you are unstoppable!

Baby Brielle {Newborn}

I am so happy for my beautiful sister and her husband for the many fun times they have ahead of them. Nothing could or ever will prepare someone enough for the challenges and joys of being a parent. It’s almost too good to be true.

Here’s a sneak of our shoot…

Welcome to the world Gabrielle Elise!

Baby bump {Maternity}

March 28th, 2012

Spring is by far my favorite time to shoot. All the newness in the air makes me excited for what’s just around the bend. There is nothing more exciting than a new little baby in the family, it was such a pleasure to document this sweet family who is waiting their new little arrival. It [...]

 

Spring is by far my favorite time to shoot. All the newness in the air makes me excited for what’s just around the bend. There is nothing more exciting than a new little baby in the family, it was such a pleasure to document this sweet family who is waiting their new little arrival. It was a bit more windy and chilly than we predicted but even big sis Olivia was up for the challenge. She was just as cute as can be. Getting her to stop for one single second was serious luck, she was on the move move move. Seriously though how much cuteness is one girl really allowed to get away with. She is beyond…

I so hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

Elizabeth {Teen Portraits}…

March 19th, 2012

Spring has sprung here in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. I had a small space of time available this week to do a little mini shoot with my beautiful sister, nothing I love more than spring pictures.

Spring has sprung here in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. I had a small space of time available this week to do a little mini shoot with my beautiful sister, nothing I love more than spring pictures. I love that in these images you can almost smell the fragrance of the blooms and feel the brush of the wind. We will need to get back out there when the sun is not so high and get some dancing light pictures.

She sure is beautiful; I can’t believe how much she looks like my beautiful mother!

Pit stop {my kiddos}

March 14th, 2012

Driving home from a little weekend trip this past weekend we stopped for the thousandth time for a potty break. Across the road sat an old dilapidated house feeling lonely and sad, I drug the kids over for a closer look and got a few cute pics of my messy travelers. Seriously love these buds [...]

Dance…{Veronica Hart}

March 13th, 2012

It was hard to pick the highlights of this session, there were just too many to choose from so I went a little overboard. When you have a subject as beautiful as Veronica it’s hard to stop clicking. Veronica is a professional dancer in the Charlottesville area, she is incredibly talented as you can see. [...]

Baby in Bloom…{Maternity}

February 23rd, 2012

There is really not much in this world that can compare to the journey a woman takes to become a mother. It is such a special emotional bonding time that begins to prepare us for our greatest task in life. As beautiful as it is for a father, that bond between unborn baby and mommy is something to behold. The time of preparation and dreaming come to a close with the most beautiful gift that one can receive in this world…a life.
Amazing how she was there in the room with us just kicking up a storm. In my mind pregnancy is one of the most peaceful times in life, the times I will forever cherish. These photographs are a small look at the story of my beautiful sisters journey to motherhood. Her perfect baby girl who’s name is a secret (grrrr) has been a bit impatient and because of some uterine irritability she has been on bed rest from 25 weeks. Even though it has not been easy you can still see that peace she has as a mother in wait. Seriously I have watched her become a mother in these weeks, the sacrifice and patience that comes with having another life to consider before our own. I am so excited for these parents in waiting. I am so proud of what an amazing mother she is already and I can’t wait to meet little no name. ha

Sarah you are beautiful…you always are but this tummy suits you! :)
