I first met these two for their engagement session at Maymont this past spring. We spent the nicest afternoon with blooms all around and we talked about their wedding day, which felt so far off. Yet, here we are, reliving their wedding day. Katie & Mark both have such warm personalities and classic style, which […]

  Fall Minis are always a big hit so I did a quick little poll on Instagram and spring minis were something you all requested….and I’m making them happen! This year, I’m offering a limited number of mini sessions in Charlottesville this May. All the information for sessions is below, but of course, don’t hesitate […]

I first met Katie through the Nashville wedding industry, and we became fast friends, especially after working together for Lindsey & Jack’s romantic Nashville wedding. She would always keep me updated on the latest with her beau, James and she’d always say “when I get married, you’re shooting my wedding!!” Of course, I was honored! […]

One of the greatest joys of photographing families isn’t just watching babies & children grow, but watching families grow as they bring new little ones home. You may remember the Joyce family from their sessions during James’s first year of life. James is almost two and officially a big sister! Her brother, Waters, joined their […]

I’m super excited to share today’s wedding because it’s not every day that you get to share your very own brother’s wedding! What a treat it was to not only witness my brother marry the most amazing girl, but I had the joy of documenting their wedding (which I couldn’t have done without the amazing […]

2018 – what a year! So many big & beautiful changes and another full year of dear clients. I celebrated with clients in Charlottesville, Lexington and Richmond last year. From an intimate courthouse ceremony to church ceremonies and country clubs to outdoor fetes and beautiful mountain views, I had the joy of working with such […]

My Eisley Rose. You are officially one year old today and my goodness, it’s been the most joyful year. Though your fast & furious delivery left me in a bit of a daze for a few days, I couldn’t believe you were actually here in this world. And now, you’ve been on this Earth for […]

2018 was the year we officially grew our family, and my goodness, my family work took on a bright & beautiful new vision. I’ve always adored photographing families, as “family” is at the root of why I started this business in the beginning. Family can be such a grounding & safe place for so many, […]

I had been looking forward to Megan & Michael’s wedding day since the day I met them, well, really, since they booked! These two had a joy that was simply contagious. They were thrilled to become husband & wife, and their celebration was such a reflection of that. Megan & Michael married on a wonderful […]

I think 2018 will always be the year of rain. More sessions and weddings had some touch of rain or clouds in 2018 than I think any years past! Thankfully, I get to work with such amazing couples that simply roll with the weather and have an amazing time either way! The forecast kept changing […]

Here we are. Another year has passed, and quite possibly, the most full year for the Cherry family to date. We started our year off with welcoming our first daughter, Eisley, and have spent the year pursuing a new normal as we’ve tried to figure out what this whole world of parenthood looks like. Though […]

  On a gray morning, this sweet family welcomed me into their warm & cozy home to meet their newest addition, James. Along with James came two golden retrievers, full of energy and full of life! One thing few people know about me is that I’ve been obsessed with golden retrievers since I was a […]
