If you want a Richmond proposal location that is intimate and picturesque, consider Brown’s Island along the Jame’s River! This summer, I hid in the rocks by the water, tucked away on the south side of T. Tyler Potterfield Memorial Bridge (which is the official name of the pedestrian bridge that runs parallel to the […]

My recent summer engagement session with Beverly & Armani around Washington DC took place on a busy, 90+ degree Saturday. Yet when I think about our time together, while the heat was memorable, what stands out to me is the fun we had and the gorgeous photos we captured. How did we do it? Below […]

My final wedding of 2023 (and last wedding before Baby Eko makes his or her appearance, any day now!) was a dream. The vendor team, the venue, the couple, the December weather… I truly couldn’t think of a better way to wrap up this year of weddings!!! Megan & Jonathan have been through the ringer […]

A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of capturing Emily & Tyler’s small wedding in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. They gathered with immediate family and picked a stunning spot by the water in Windmill Hill Park off Union Street. It was one of those November days that was 70 degrees with no wind (and […]

Being a wedding and portrait photographer here in Richmond, Virginia, has been one of my top places to live and work because of how many amazing locations we have for photos. Gardens? No problem! Breathtaking city views? For sure!! Train stations that are stunning inside and out? We got you! Fun murals? You bet! Museums? […]

It’s easy to be excited, for obvious reasons, that my brother, Clark, and his girl Sarah are getting married next year! (Peep part one of their engagement photo session from a few months ago!) Some of those clear reasons are 1) we are getting an amazing new sister-in-law, 2) we love watching what these two […]

I feel like somewhere written in the fine-print of my business blueprint is written, “Loves working with the kindest, funnest couples,” because repeatedly I am so humbled by the kind, fun people who are in front of my camera!! Julia was friend back at CNU, and I photographed roommate photos for her wayyyyyy back in […]

Last Friday, I pulled up to the home where Rachel & Carey were getting ready for their Suffolk wedding and was immediately greeted by Carey and some family friends. Warm smiles and eager handshakes welcomed me, accompanied by impeccably calm, cool, and collected demeanors, and Carey ushered me upstairs to where Rachel was getting hair […]

A surprising joy in my pregnancy (due with baby #1 in January, for those who don’t know!) has been taking up walking for exercise. As a fitness fanatic who traditionally finds life in running and weight-training, I have been known to view walking as a “lesser” form of physical fitness. However, my ever-changing pregnant body […]

Ever meet people who just have the most precious visible dynamic of bestfriends AND lovers? Jon and Roby had that immediate, visible chemistry when I met them last month doing couples’ sessions with a photographer friend, the amazing Heather Mrva, at The Estate at River Run. And my goodness, Jon & Roby are the kind […]

One of the reasons Main Street Station here in Richmond, Virginia, is so high up on my list of favorite places to shoot is because of how many epic areas there are for portraits both inside and outside the venue! In particular, if you are looking for somewhere with incredible symmetry and amazing framing that […]

Mini sessions are such a great way for couples and families to get beautiful photos in a shorter window of time! While I love more extensive sessions where we can capture your crew in 60-90 minutes through many areas and outfits around a park, city, or a specific venue, sometimes 20 minutes is all you […]

Warning… this post may cause, “OOoooo”s, “Awwwwww”s, and a little bit of jealousy over how stunning my bestfriends are!!! Christie is one of my old roomies and besties from CNU! She, her husband Matt, and their pup Huxley live in Suffolk, VA, and let me tell you… they are one beautiful family!!! A few weeks […]

Weddings where couples honor their cultural heritage are some of my favorite because you get to peek into the backgrounds that brought two people together to create one new family! When I showed up at Caroline and Chris’s celebration this summer, I was intrigued by the ribbons Caroline included for me to photograph with her […]
