May of this year could have been my craziest month of work! We moved to our new home in April and shortly after, I started my marathon of weddings and family sessions. So here I am, a month later finalizing all my edits and delivering galleries like crazy! This spring, I offered Charlottesville Mini Sessions […]

Anna is one incredible hair & makeup artist here in Charlottesville. She helped me to feel my best for my maternity & newborn session with Eisley and let me just say, it isn’t easy for me to find someone who I trust to do my hair, ha! She has an incredible talent for highlighting a […]

As a mama myself, I totally understand how much work it can be to simply get ready for a family photo session. Trying to get everyone fed, dressed and in the car without a meltdown or blow-out can feel impossible. And then if your child is fussy, you may get a bit worried the photos […]

I reached out to the amazing ladies at Emerson James Rental, as they are always collaborating with such wonderful teams to create beautifully unique tablescapes! Plus, they keep adding to their collection of modern, elegant tabletop pieces and I just can’t get enough. Of course, Elisa & Mallory didn’t disappoint in sharing some wonderful tips […]

What a joy it is to watch friends become mothers. And even more of a joy to document the sweet season for them! I’ve known Brittany since I was a child and we ended up attending school together as well. We parted ways after high school, and I eventually moved to Nashville. But, we stayed […]

It’s a question all couples have to answer, so I’m here to share 5 […]

Every time I show up to a new client’s home for their newborn session, there’s just something in the air. A new life has been brought home and that’s not something to be taken lightly. The parents are so in love, there’s a bit of chaos among stillness, everything feels new, yet so right. There’s […]

How could you get more classic & romantic than a engagement session in the city? The Nation’s capital at that. Sophia & Drew wanted to have their engagement in the city they adored, the city that’s home for them. We started at the Lincoln Memorial and ended at the Jefferson Memorial for some iconic views […]

One of the main questions I get when planning engagement sessions with couples is “where should we do our engagement session?” And rightfully so, it’s a sweet season in your life and you want your engagement session to be meaningful. My first piece of advice is always to choose a location that reflects something about […]

UVA is an all-time favorite session location, and for good reason! The architecture and gardens never cease to be fully of beauty and each season brings such a different vibe to grounds. Julia & Taylor met at UVA so it was only fitting to schedule their engagement session at UVA. They lucked out with the […]

In case you didn’t already know, I’m a huge fan of Heirlooms and real, tangible prints. In a world where our phones fill up on the daily with quick snapshots, I believe prints are all the more important. Instead of gathering around a screen, holding your memories brings them to life in a beautiful way! […]

Chances are, you remember this squishy little boy from his newborn session, even though he wasn’t so squishy then! Isn’t it amazing how much a sweet babe grows in such a short amount of time? The first year of life is a tad insane with how many changes our little ones go through. It’s truly […]
