Friends & Summer go together: Virginia Childrens Photographer

Friends & Summer go together: Virginia Childrens Photographer

Recently one of my brides informed me that some of the wedding party didn't believe that I could be a mom because I looked young and I attribute this to two things, low light and my facial products.   I do invest heavily in good skin care products called Kara Vita and you can find their stuff at www.karavita.com.  I am telling you, it is simply the best skin care around.   So to dispel any doubt, here is my 11 year-old daughter and her friend spending a warm summer evening with me in a field of …

Emily+Chris: Virginia Destination Wedding Photographer

These two were so fun to be around.  They first met at Lake Anna on the water and so one of their requests for their engagements was to include water.  We were able to find some spots along the Shenandoah and also some fun urban locations too.  I love combining elements of urban and nature during a shoot because each image has a different feel to it and I always strive for a variety of images to share with my clients.  Emily and Chris are having a destination wedding this next year in Cozumel …

Cassie’s Bridals: D.C. Wedding Photographer, Virginia Wedding Photographer

I had such a great time at this shoot.  Cassie decided to book me for formal bridals prior to her wedding.  I was so glad she did because on the day of her wedding, it was so hot that we were unable to do formal bride and groom photos.  They are coming back down to Virginia on a cooler day to do those!  What I love most about Cassie is that she is adventurous and she doesn't have a problem with any idea I might conjure up.  She is so willing to try anything for the sake of creativity and because …

And baby makes 4: Northern Virginia Photographer

I had the opportunity to spend time with this very sweet family to capture the newness of their little man.  He was so awake for most of the session.  I think mom was getting a little nervous, but in the end my patience paid off and we were able to get some adorable sleepy shots.  I am so grateful I get to capture moments like these for families.  …
