THOMAS FAMILY | FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER | FREDERICKSBURG, VIRGINIA

I am missing that holiday cheer these days!! And thought no better way to bring it back than with this amazing tree farm session. I always have a blast when these 3 are with me!! Their little one, Grayson, reminds me SO much of my own little one and I absolutely LOVE IT!! I have captured Grayson since he was a little newborn and was fortunate enough to capture his first year of milestones! Seeing him now as a 2 1/2 year old is why I have the best job in the world! Each time i saw him, his personality blossomed more and more and he is the happiest most energetic little boy. We had a blast running around the tree farm and playing hide and seek. I loved being able to capture this gorgeous family again and celebrate their love for eachother. This is one lucky little boy! Here are my faves!

MILLER FAMILY | FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER | WOODBRIDGE, VIRGINIA

As I go through last years sessions I really enjoy re-looking at all of the images from the day and selecting some of my favorites. It reminds me of how the weather was, the foliage, the gorgeous light, the amazing connections between family members. I love working with this family they are always so wonderful and give me THE BEST family images <3 I am SO ready for warmer weather and things to start blooming and embrace that warm summer light!! Here are some of my favs.

ELEXUS & LARNCE ARE ENGAGED | WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER | MANASSAS, VIRGINIA

Elexus and Larnce are one of those couples that instantly make you fall in love with them. We met up at the Hylton Performing Arts center at George Mason for their session because this is where their love story began! And their love for each other was evident within 30 seconds of meeting them. Since having my daughter I do not shoot as many engagements or weddings as I used to, but when we do we really get to capture some of the most authentic and genuine couples. We enjoyed this windy January day shooting indoors and then finished up their session in the woods! I loved hearing about how they met, their future plans, and learning that Elexus and I both went to the same college! Of course I’m way older ;) These two were such an incredible couple and they are going to change the world. Here are ALOT of my favorites :)

ALEXANDRIA MATERNITY | MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER | MANASSAS, VIRGINIA

I LOVE shooting maternity session. There is nothing more gorgeous to me than a beautiful growing baby bump and that radiant glow a mama to be has. When I met this stunning mama to be I instantly felt like I had known her for years. She was a natural and her and her hubby were incredible to work with. Their love and their joy when they spoke about their baby boy is what makes this job so special to me! I had so much fun exploring the creek and woods with them and capturing this exciting time in their life. Here are my favorites from their session!!

BLAINE IS ONE | MILESTONE PHOTOGRAPHER | STAFFORD, VIRGINIA

Meet Blaine!! I met his mom and dad when they were pregnant with him and I have loved capturing some of his big milestones this year!! He is such a great little kiddo and has the most amazing blue/gray eyes!! We got to start our session outside because we had incredible weather in January! And finished up indoors with a construction themed cake smash! At first he was super curious about that cake and then instantly hated the frosting on his hands! He gave us some great shots and in true cake smash form we got some hilarious photos of him not loving that frosting! ;) This was such a fun smash to create and Blaine did amazing!! He has so much personality and is just the cutest kiddo EVER!! Here are some of my favorites.
