Steffie + Mike | Yorktown Engagement Session - Part One

Last weekend, Steffie and Mike met me in historic Yorktown for an engagement session. The two of them are planning a summer wedding at the gorgeous Freight Shed, so they decided they wanted to do their pics nearby. The afternoon they chose for their session was beautiful!

I really enjoyed working with Steffie and Mike, The two of them are adorable together :) I can't wait to shoot their beach themed wedding this August!

Lacy + Andy - New Kent Winery Engagement Session

Lacy and Andy recently got engaged at the beautiful New Kent Winery. They decided they wanted their engagement pictures there as well. Although the weather was crazy (pouring one minute and blindingly sunny the next) Lacy and Andy still managed to look adorable and get some great shots around the winery :)By spending time around the two of these guys...you can truly tell how much in love they are, and how excited they are to get married. I had such a great time doing their photos! I especially enjoyed the tasting we did before the shoot, while the weather was still bad.

Lacy is an elementary school teacher, so we incorporated some apples into their session. Their dogs, Bella and Tank, also joined us for a few photos towards the end :)

I have some pretty cool news to share!!

I’ve been working on it for a while now and am excited to announce

DRUMROLL…

I have a website!



You’ll still find all of my latest work and random musings here, but the website is a great place to get a feel for my style and see my best work. I designed the site myself and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out! I'm in love the simple gray background (my favorite color!!) and the fun font choices. Coincidentally, the bolder of the two fonts used is named Lucy, like my daughter *ahem* beloved ginger tabby cat.

Please check out the website and let me know what you think J Pretty soon I’ll be unveiling a couple more new things so stay tuned!

Jerri + Mark

This past weekend, I met up with Jerri and Mark in Yorktown for a quick shoot. They were really fun to work with because besides being hilarious, they both had tons of great ideas on locations and shots. Totally made my life easy :) Jerri brought along some bubbles she wanted to incorporate into the shoot, and we played around with some moustaches on a stick I made for another shoot. Hope you enjoy these pics!

Jerri and Mark: I had a blast working with you guys :)

Tara & Dave - Engaged

Tara and Dave are friends of mine, so I was really excited when they got engaged this past Christmas. I was even more thrilled when they asked me to do their engagement session! Tara, Dave, and Dave's daughter Kayla met me at Bethel Park in Hampton on a sunny afternoon. They were SO easy to work with and the love they have for each other radiates through these photos. Enjoy a few images of this adorable family-to-be:)

Tara + Dave, can't WAIT to shoot your wedding in a couple short months!

Valentine's Day

I woke up this morning to a beautiful bouquet from my valentine. I arranged the flowers into smaller arrangements using mason jars I've collected for our wedding. These flowers and the beautiful weather today (it's 65 degrees and sunny!) have me daydreaming about spring.

Happy Valentine's Day! Look for a blog post featuring Tara and Dave's engagement session later on this week :)

Krista - Maternity

I met up with Krista and her family this Saturday morning at Yorktown Beach. To say that it was the coldest morning of the year isn't an exaggeration! It was a frigid 19 degrees, but we were able to get a few shots! Enjoy these images of this sweet family :)
