Elisabeth is a Graduating!: Loudoun County Senior Portraits

I think I have to yell it from the rooftops, and maybe I will because I LOVE SENIOR PHOTOS!!!!  I always tell my husband, "I wish I could photograph more seniors."  What I love about this age is the anticipation, the accomplishment, the willingness to be free and really embrace becoming a young adult.  I have way too much fun photographing seniors and this is just to let you all know I will be doing more senior sessions in the future and I am super excited about it.  Stay tuned for some senior …

Longing for Summer: Washington State Family Photos

Every time this time of year I start getting just a little antsy.  Maybe it's because my birthday always hits this month and it's the month before the kids get off from school.  I'm not sure, but I do know that my mind wanders to the summer months when I get to spend time with my family.  I typically take most of the month of July off so I can really refresh and spend quality time with the most important people in my life, my family.  We try to plan a family vacation to visit relatives and given …

Gitta & Tomas, A Wedding at Home: Virginia Wedding Photography

Gitta and Tomas are such sweet and simple people, so down to earth and easy going. When Gitta told me she wanted to get married at her childhood home in the Plains the movie, "The Father of the Bride" came to mind.  The difference here was that they didn't need to revamp their whole house in order to host the wedding.  Everything about this DIY wedding was well thought out and reflected their unique personalities in every respect.   Having a farm wedding in Virginia is a beautiful way to host a …

Jumping puddles and other lessons: Virginia Wedding Photographer

The other day it was raining so hard I decided I should pop my kids in the car and wait at the end of the driveway with them to make sure they didn't get on the bus all soaked even before they got to school.   Living out in the country means long driveways which means when it rains you will get soaked if you have to wait for the bus. As my two boys climbed out of the car there was a virtual "seasonal" stream at the end of our driveway.  The bus came and stopped.  My older son quickly jumped …
