Meet Maximilian....isn't that the coolest name?! He might want to go by Max someday, but I think Maximilian has a nice ring to it!

This is the sweet angel baby from my Instagram stories. Baby Landon, just 8 days old and absolutely perfect!

(And is that tiny little highchair prop not the sweetest??!?!) 🥰

I asked Keaton if I could share a sneak peek from his senior session. His reply?
“Sure! As long as Dig is in there.”
You got it, bud. 😆

I never done a senior session in a theater/auditorium before yesterday, but this one at the bar high…I can’t wait to do the next one! 😍
Fun fact- before I was a photographer I was a high school band director and spent many, many hours on this same stage in rehearsals or class. It was a fun “full circle” moment to be there doing something completely different!

Senior sessions are always different and that is what is so fun!
Water felt amazing and we had perfect weather. Can you believe it was like winter just a week ago? We probably would have turned into popsicles in the water…but that’s just how spring is in Virginia! 🤪

Clouds rolled in at the exact second we started the session, McKenzie maneuvered around with a cute pair of pink crutches (not fun for her, but we made the most of it) and we got rain dumped on us at the end, but we DID IT!
All of that and this sweet girl genuinely smiled the *entire* time.

This location is a special one for Cooper’s family, so it was a joy to be able to do his senior photo session there! We had only a few minutes before we started to get rained on, but we got the job done!

P.S.-senior boys…take a photo with your Mama…it’ll make her so happy. ❤️

You can take the newborn photographer out of the studio, but you can’t always take the studio out of the photographer....😆😆
Harlie & Kye have the most beautiful home and being able to capture images in their space was so special. I *did* bring a little studio to their home with a few wraps and props in addition to the relaxed and cozy vibe, so it’s the best of both worlds!

SENIOR SEASON IS HERE! 😍

Spring weather has a mind of it's own, but overcast skies couldn't keep us from Gracie's senior mini session!

There isn’t much better than a new little baby with chubby cheeks...
Except when there’s a loving big sis, the sweetest heart prop and precious fresh baby piggy toes... 😍😍❤❤

Just a few days into temps over 50 and I pull out every flower in the studio to incorporate it and tell myself that Spring is here. 😆

We finally found a break in the busy schedules of life to take Dashea's senior photos, surrounded by beautiful land and quite a few lovable pups. 🎓 🐾
He is such a special young man and I know his family and friends are so proud of him!

Also, let's all wish Dashea and his team good luck as they compete in the Virginia Indoor Track Nationals on Friday!!

Some days you just can’t get enough of a baby, and today was one of those days for me. I adore Shelby AND her precious family! She is perfect.
What a blessing! ❤️

A senior session in the studio shook off the daylight savings sleepies I’ve been fighting…so much fun!

Senior sports are in full swing and I’m starting on senior banners this week! If interested in an individual banner, please message me! ❤🎓

(I promise banners have names that aren’t cut off…but Instagram was dumb and I got mad trying…😆😆)

This winter was a long one. Cold. Dry. Full of germs. 😆
I felt like no matter what I did, I couldn't get warm and comfortable.
I needed the time to let my body start to heal- and the time spent with my little family feels like the first time ever, although I have built in time off work every year. This year was different. I slowed down long enough to enjoy it, to get comfortable and warm.

As I walk into this outdoor season (it's coming!! Just around the corner!!), I can finally take a breath in and truly enjoy the season coming. God sure has been good to me, even in the cold and dry season. There's always warm and comfortable coming after! ❤️ ☀

I am COUNTING DOWN the days until the sun sets late, it's warm enough for shorts and I can take more photos like this... ❤☀

Class of 2026, now is the time to book! 🎓

Lanugo is a special type of body hair found on newborn babies. A newborn baby covered in hair might be surprising, but lanugo is perfectly normal. Not all babies are born with lanugo, but all of them were coated with it in the womb. The hair usually goes away before birth, but sometimes it sticks around until a baby is born or even for a few months after.
I remember being surprised at this with my new babies, how did I not know?!
Anyone else?!!!😆🧐
