!!New year update!!
I am so excited for this year and what the beginning of this year will mean for this business love of mine ✨
We are moving, and hopefully it is the last BIG move we have for quite a while, or ever 😅 I will miss being so close to salty air and sandy toes but also am thankful to be back in the mountains my husband calls home soon closer to family and farther away from all of the traffic.
With my now 3rd big relocation in just over a year, my own heart is tired of being in transition from city to city. There has been a lot of questions recently about where we would end up post military life, it has been full of tears and heartache trying to figure out what’s best for us. We thought we had it all figured out and some unexpected health scares changed all of that for us, but also brought a lot of peace at the same time. It just made this decision that much easier. There is still so much we don’t have figured out, and that’s a-okay honestly. I’m learning how to have comfort in some uncertainty, ya girl is not one for that. But, if the passed two years have taught me anything, it’s how to handle the unexpected changes in life while searching for and holding tight to the things that makes you the happiest, best version of you.
So here’s to our last (hopefully) big move of our lives 🙌

I can finally share a few of my faves from this backyard wedding from the fall. Niki & Dyllon are just 🥺🥰
Loved being part of this special moment for them and her grandparents.

I will never forget the stress in my now mother-in-law’s voice that night on the phone after I told her I had just left an “elopement” the week of my wedding “dID yoU gEt mARRieD iN SecREt?!?”
Honestly, priceless 😅

I already have some dates booked for next year, reach out if you are in need of some timeless photos and we can see what magic we can make happen ✨

I got the beautiful opportunity to go to the place I called home for 7 years this weekend and my heart just 🥰
It was the perfect amount of mountains I needed to refocus and think about all the upcoming changes and opportunities we have in the upcoming months. Walking around this campus for some reason, just calms my mind and slows my breath just enough to think clearly and be at peace with all of the unexpected and things that are just simply outside of my control.
Thankful for this place that will always be home, will always be the place that challenged me and forced me to be okay with change, plus it’s also the place that placed my husband in my life so that makes it even sweeter.

Do you have a place that just clears your mind in a way that no where else does?

A good throw back to 3 years ago with Erin & Will’s engagement photos!
Getting to photograph an engagement shoot is always so precious, but getting to capture these moments for my best friend was the highest honor. Watching these two grow and become parents has been such a great joy in the last three years and I love the memories of this crisp October morning at the Page Library in Montpelier, Va with the parents of my now best friend, Jace.

If you’re on the verge of wanting to get couples/engagement photos done, just do it! Let’s chat. Not having the time to get engagement photos done for myself will forever be something I’m a little sad about, so don’t be me and just act on it!

Just a little throwback of one of my favorite littles 🎃

10/23/2021

Hiiiiii I’m Kristin, otherwise known as KK by a few special littles in my life. Photography has been a great love in my life for a real long time, but never felt like I could really devote the time to turn it into something more than a love and hobby. I suffer from imposter syndrome when it comes to really putting myself out there and even this post feels so so so out of character for me but I have the sweetest husband who for so long continuously reminds me that I can do this, as long as his hand is in mine. I’m so thankful for my guy.
I love lifestyle photography, I love photographing littles so much! Those sweet candid moments bring my heart joy and make me feel like I’m in my element. But in reality, anything on that side of the camera is my element.

What kinds of things do you look for when you’re ready for a photographer for those special moments in your life?

I’m so excited for you guys to be able to see this gallery this winter, but I just can’t hold out on a good detail shot 🥰 but it’s got to stay between you and me 😅

Right before my own wedding, I got to photograph a sweet SECRET backyard elopement so the bride could include grandparents in her day that they were going to be unable to travel to. It was so sweet and such an honor to be a part of.
Getting to capture milestone moments is such an honor and to do it the week of my own wedding was honestly an even sweeter way to kick off my own wedding week.

I'm still in awe that yesterday happened, "we might've took the long way, we knew we'd get there someday"

While I didn't follow through with most of the little traditions of weddings, including walking down an aisle, or being given "away" (I'm not property 😅) I did follow one, and it was a special one.
Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue, although I didn't have a sixpence in my shoe, because I wasn't wearing shoes until I absolutely had to. I highly recommend getting married barefoot.
While each of these things were special, one of them takes the (funfetti) cake. My something blue, was a piece of fabric from a shirt from my sweet Granna's closet stitched into the lining of my dress. She wasn't able to be there physically on that sand with our closest family members, but she had a cloud side view and we had a small piece of her there.
I couldn't think of a more special way to include her in this day that I know she would have been APPAULLED was not 100% traditional and proper. I've always been a wild one as Faith Hill would say.

Missing you always Joan Shirley Cooper (1936-2018) I bet you woulda loved the man I married yesterday.



Teton Wood Blooms did an amazing job on my flowers, that I get to keep forever.
Watkins Jewelers in Blackstone, Va custom made my band to compliment my antique family heirloom ring.
The Lane Gift Bakery baked our funfetti cake and macaroons, and they were beautiful & delicious.
So thankful for small town businesses.
