family portraits

Roy Family | Family Photographer | Manassas, Virginia

There are certain clients that will always hold a special place in your heart and this is one of those families. This mama was my FIRST paying client over 9 years ago. She trusted me to capture her daughters photos when she was just a toddler and has trusted me every year since. I have watched her family grow from 3 to 5, and captured these babies grow into some pretty incredible kids. With her oldest off to high school in the fall I cannot even believe I have captured her photos for almost a decade. When a family comes back to you year after year to support your dream and business it truly is the biggest blessing. THANK YOU Wendy for being with me from the start!!

This session like ALL of their sessions was so much fun. We had a little bit of an overcast day in May, but thankfully wasn’t too hot. We captured photos along the creek bed and then embraced the stormy, overcast clouds in the giant field. Her kids are fantastic and always up to run around the weeds with me!! We captured so many great shots and had a blast. Her kids have grown so much over the last year and I cannot wait to see them all again!! Here are some of my favorites.

GENERATION SESSION | FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER | MANASSAS, VIRGINIA

I have really enjoyed photographing and getting to know this gorgeous family the last few years. So when Maria wanted a generation photo shoot I was ALL about it. I have started shooting more of these sessions and the more I do them the more special and important they become to me. There really is nothing more priceless than photos of our families and capturing these moments together. I loved being able to celebrate the relationship and incredible bond between these 4 gorgeous women. We had the most AMAZING sunset and everything about the location was perfection. It was really tough to narrow down the photos for the blog so here is a photo overload :)! My favorites:

NIKO IS ONE | MILESTONE PHOTOGRAPHER | STAFFORD, VIRGINIA

I have been so incredibly blessed with meeting some amazing families over the last 7 years. But this family has been by my side from early on! I met Niko’s mama years ago for a headshot session and led to a friendship. I have been there from the start as I shot their engagement, wedding, a session with their fur babies, maternity, newborn, a Christmas session and now Niko’s one year!! WHEW!! THANK YOU FOR BEING AMAZING CLIENTS!! It has truly been an honor to watch their love story unfold and then be able to celebrate them building their family. Niko is the BEST little boy and I cannot wait to see him transition into a wild toddler ;) !!
