Who says you can only wear your wedding dress once? I am a firm believer that a wedding dress should be celebrated and worn again! To celebrate Kimberly & Michael's One Year Anniversary this fall, we went out on the parkway during sunset to capture some sweet moments with these two, and with Kimberly's mom, Karen! On the wedding day, things can be so hectic that precious moments are missed, and the bride and groom don't get a chance to just slow down, take everything in, and

"WOW!" What else can I say when it comes to this gorgeous high school senior? I had the best time exploring with Leeanna and mom, Sandy, on the family's beautiful farm land in Franklin County, Virginia, this August! Sandy brought out some vintage chairs for us to use as props, and Leeanna brought smoke bombs (my absolute favorite!) & some serious gymnastics skills, for us to create some of my favorite images to date. Leeanna was SO much fun to work with! Her bubbly personalit

At first glance, it was just another average muggy evening in May, but Wes and Christina trusted us to go on an adventurous hike for their engagement session in Willis, Virginia to chase down a sunset. They followed us down the sketchy country roads and up the steep gravel terrain to our favorite natural preserve. There, we made the 1 mile trek up the mountain to the stunning view at the top. Wes and Christina have a love for the outdoors, and Wes made the trip extra fun by t

For this fun family session, Mel & I met the Cox Family at Sun Star Farms in Martinsville, Virginia! The sunflowers were at the mature stage, and the bold yellows popped beautifully in the background along with a stunning sunset over the farm's rolling hills. Big sister, Lila, showed me how fast she could run, and twirled in her pretty dress. We picked a beautiful sunflower for her, and found a group of bumblebees who were also enjoying the sun stars! Baby sister, Maylee, gav

Laotong: (n) a friendship between two girls together for eternity as kindred sisters. Nothing could describe these besties better! Klava and Colette have been friends since forever, and to celebrate their friendship we had some fun with smokebombs and danced in the rain!

When Justice Coleman's mom, Tonya, contacted me about a photoshoot, I knew this was going to be one to remember! Tonya and Justice gave me total creative freedom for this session, and were willing to try new things with me like smoke bombs and twinkle lights, and chasing sunsets by the country side! We had our first half of this session at Carvins Cove, where we splashed in the lake water and danced with twinkle lights. Later we met back up in our hometown to finish the sessi

Tonya Coleman Norman and her daughters; Destinee, DaNaja, and Justice couldn't be sweeter! I had a great time with them, exploring the open fields of our hometown, Callaway, and getting some great portraits and candids. We chased down a summer sunset and shared lots of laughs along the way. I loved getting to know this gorgeous group of girls! #sisters #motherdaughter #familyphotography #sunsetphotography #gorgeousgirls #sisterhood #portraitphotography #countryside #callawayv
