Don't know what else to say except that I'm SO excited- these two are getting married!! If you had told me years ago that I would be here doing an engagement session for my childhood best friend, I would not have believed you. But today, friends, I'd like to bask in the beauty of life coming full circle and getting to have such a special experience. Today I'm sharing a piece of my heart with you and celebrating the joy in these moments.

Also loved getting to go back to where it all started for these two and honor their journey to getting married!

Been quite the week here in Virginia, but I'm thankful for a few weeks to get caught up on editing AND for beautiful views like this.
Finally have some new content coming from the last few months!

It's also a new year which means bookings are being added to the calendar! Don't miss out!

Happy 2022, friends!

THURSDAY!! Come check out the special sale I'm doing on personalized gifts, just in time for Christmas!

Silent Night is this Thursday, December 2nd! Silent Night is our Advent House Show and Christmas Market. Advent is a time of longing and waiting for Christ. We would be delighted to begin our celebration of the season with you and your loved ones! We will share original music, Scripture passages relevant to the season, and plenty of locally roasted coffee and homemade cookies. Local vendors will be set up and a silent auction will take place throughout the evening.

Doors open at 6:30PM, giving you time to check out the local vendors and participate in the silent auction, and Advent worship will begin a little after 7PM.

We hope to see you there!

Talk about DREAMY morning light 😍😇
Today was a perfect day for this beautiful lady's college graduation photos. Alex and I met back in high school so I was thrilled to be able to be a part of this special time years later. So glad we got up with the sun and got to enjoy many laughs along the way. Thank you, Alex, for making my job way too easy!

It's always so amazing to spend time with couples and families and see their hearts come alive in the photos. It's not all about the photos, it's about the shared experience and the joy that comes from those fun moments. I'm just lucky enough to get to sneak in those priceless shots.
Shoutout to my parents for this one!!
And as I always say-
The best photos are never planned!

I may not have been as active on here recently, but Y'ALL have I been busy behind the camera, especially out at the farm. From capturing the sunrise in the fields to horse antics, baby goats and equine therapy, my days have been blessed with getting to capture beautiful images like these.

I hope you enjoy the small glimpse of love that lives at Steadfast Trail farm (and go check them out for incredible homemade soaps and products or donate to support the animals)!!
