Matt and Amber moved from DC to Raleigh earlier last year, celebrated their first anniversary in November (see more of their garden wedding here in case you missed it!) and welcomed their sweet girl, Molly, about a month later as she made her entrance right before New Year’s Eve. What a wonderful and full year! […]

I first met Drew & Jesslyn at their engagement session, as I do with many couples. But the truth is, I don’t think Drew has ever met a stranger in his life! He’s one of those people who welcomes you and encourages you without a drop of hesitation. Jesslyn then comes along with her soft […]

Watching your friends marry is always a joyous occasion. Watching your friends become parents? It’s really something you can’t even explain. Phil (Elsie’s dad) has been Jeremy’s best friend since middle school….when they were both the same height, which is quite hilarious now. Though they are the closest of friends, they are different in more ways […]

Amy and Alex both attended JMU, but didn’t end up meeting until they both happened to attend a mutual friend’s going away party. They hit it off that evening and went on their first date the following week, and well, as they say, the rest is history. Fast forward, and while on a vacation in […]

Meet the Davis Family…. they are one of those families who make you feel as if you’ve known them for years from the moment you meet them. I met Britt through a women’s bible study in Charlottesville, and she’s one of those people that brings light to any room. With her gorgeous golden curls and […]

Happy Friday, everyone! I am SO excited to finally share a recent editorial I worked on at Early Mountain Vineyards this past fall. This shoot was recently featured on Ruffled, and today I’m sharing a few of my personal favorites. It was a long time in the making, and I’m so very thankful for all the […]

This post has been SUCH  a long time coming. And I’m so excited to finally share this gorgeous Heirloom Book with you. As you know, Heirlooms bring your story full circle. For the past couple of years, I’ve had the joy of working with multiple families where I walk alongside them for their baby’s first […]

One of the greatest honors is to have my sweet couples and clients come back to me as they walk into another season in life. Kate and Mark married in Nashville at The Bridge Building, and we have stayed in touch and become friends over the last few years. They live in New York City (my […]

Where do I even begin? 2016 was a beautiful whirlwind from day one. Jeremy and I packed up our life in Nashville in March, put our things in storage and headed to Europe for 5 weeks (in case you missed it, you can find the links to all posts here). When we returned, we immediately […]

2016 was full of pregnancy announcements, new children, growing children and growing families. In 2015, I really began to take on more family clients as I began to find the voice I wanted to share and I’m so thankful for the opportunity to have worked with so many amazing families this past year as well. […]

The first time I talked with Nancy & Ben, I knew their wedding day was going to be a special one. They already had a wonderful vision for their day at Sunnywood (her family’s private lake property) that involved many details, but not one detail didn’t have a story behind it. First and foremost, they […]

I always look forward to mini sessions each year! It’s such a joy to see how each kid and family has grown! Last year I did two days of mini sessions, but this year was the biggest year yet with 13 families in one day. And what an awesome day it was! The weather was […]
