There's no place like home. And sometimes it's the best spot for pics. I adored this sweet family's fall porch as the backdrop for their family photos. Their dog, Daisy, was adorable and enjoyed the spotlight too!

Ryan's photos are bittersweet because he is the third and final senior session of the Wartell family that I've had the privilege to capture! His hope is to study business at William and Mary next fall.

Speaking of fall, how pretty are those leaves? This season just can't be beat. šŸšŸ‚šŸ˜ Enjoy some teasers from his senior session!

Congrats Ryan - Class of 2027!!

The Lyons family and I enjoyed a gorgeous evening stroll along the beach, catching up as we took their photos. We walked nearly 1.5 miles by the time the evening was over! To feel the wind, hear the water, and enjoy the sunshine was such a joy for the soul. God is so good! Also, it never ceases to amaze me how much my clients' kids grow from the last time I saw them and the Lyons' kids were no exception. Enjoy some teasers from this sweet family's session. šŸ’•

Since 2020 I've been photographing Evan and his family, and here he is now getting his senior portraits done! Not everyone can pull off the deadpan look (or 'Blue Steel' - Zoolander anyone?) but Evan does it flawlessly. šŸ™Œ I was really loving a lot of the black and white edits for his session too!

Congrats Evan on your upcoming graduation! Class of 2027! šŸŽ“

The O'Berry family is expecting a baby girl in February 2027! Of course updated family photos were in order. Baby sister is lucky to have two big brothers to look after her! Everything about their session was perfection - the beautiful family, gorgeous weather, the sunshine, the outfits that were made for this location... šŸ˜

Congrats to the O'Berry family on soon becoming a party of five!

Enjoy some sneak peeks! ✨

The Brooke family and I enjoyed the warm weather and sunshine while capturing some updated family photos. Their sweet horse, Dazzle, is so gentle and patient posing with kids! I adored the gorgeous outfits they wore for this magical location too. Not only is Tami incredible at pulling outfits together and a blast to be around, she is the consummate professional behind Barnyard on wheels and loves and cares for all her animals. Be sure to reach out to Tami to bring sweet farm animals to your next birthday party or event! šŸ£šŸ°šŸ“šŸ‘

Some sessions take a little extra patience, and this one was worth the wait! šŸ˜ After rescheduling Emalee's senior photos THREE times thanks to the weather(!!!) we finally got the perfect opportunity to capture these senior portraits at the historic Redoubts 9 & 10 at Yorktown Battlefield and along the beautiful Yorktown Beach.

I love how this session blended the history and character of Yorktown with the relaxed, coastal feel of the beach. 🌿🌊

Emalee is heading to Blue Ridge to study to become a veterinary technician, and I can’t wait to see where this next chapter takes her! 🐾 Her future is full of exciting possibilities, and I’m so glad I got to capture this special season of her life.

Congratulations on your senior year, Class of 2027! šŸŽ“āœØ

It was so wonderful to spend some time with this beautiful family again. The Greensfelder family wanted to get some family photos done early this season before mom, Evin, gets ready to deploy for four months.

Wishing Evin safe travels and this family lots of love during the months ahead! Thank you for your service! šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø

It has been a minute...! I was enjoying the last bit of summer with my family in OBX, then as soon as we got back the kids' fall sports practices started up, and it was a whirlwind of last minute clothes/school supplies and then BOOM - first day of school was here. The dust is slowly settling as we get back into a routine.

Don't worry though, I've still got my camera in hand and working behind the scenes even though I'm not always posting. Most recently I've been capturing marketing photos for a few private schools and I don't share those online.

Keep your eyes peeled as fall minis will be coming up soon! As always, I announce details and release the booking information to my newsletter subscribers first before posting here.

And trust me you won't get spammed because I'm not disciplined enough to send these things out that often. 🤣)
