Last week I posted about how I was managing this while COVID thing. But what about kids? They may seem aloof, but they are hearing and processing all of the same information that we are! I’ve spent the last 18 days focusing on my kids emotions during this heath crisis and they have been thriving. […]

When Beverlyne came into my studio for her maternity session she was very soft spoken and fairly shy. She is a Kenyan beauty and her smile is truly spectacular. Up until her session date, I had only interacted with her husband, Tony. He is defiantly the more outgoing one in their family! I chatted with […]

There may be no greater compliment that when another photographer hires you to capture their family. Elizabeth is a fellow photographer that I met through an education group that we are both in on facebook! When she reached out me to book her session I was so very honored- and especially thrilled that she wanted […]

I am known for my love of flowers, and flowering trees might get me the most excited! (Hello, cherry blossoms!) I am also known for my love of Colonial Williamsburg… which just happens to be abundant with all things flowering. SPRING is known for blooming and babies being born. BOOM, we are in Jessica’s sweet […]

The Friday personal post is a day late because of the annual SE Virginia snow! If you know anyone that lives in South East Virginia or North Carolina, you know through their social media posts that we got snow. It’s literally the only thing I saw in my feed for two days. The day prior […]

GET TO KNOW ME

I am just a simple girl that walks on the sunny side of the street who enjoys sweets, little details and a dash of sparkle. 

Fueled by equal parts caffeine and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can’t wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come.

I believe in love, laughter, kindness...and a glass of wine with your best people!
