I finally get to share another session on the blog now that Christmas is over and presents have been opened. Katherine and her brother Spencer wanted pictures done for their dad for Christmas and of course, Katherine’s horse Tucker was in them too. I love it when I get to work with horses that have personalities […]

Cadie & CW’s couples photography session was so much fun. They are so adorable together! I had such a great time making these photos for them and they were so cute and cuddly the whole session. CW was constantly making Cadie laugh and you can just tell how happy they make each other by being […]

You might have seen Brianna’s younger sister, Emily, on the blog earlier this year where Brianna was my awesome assistant keeping Emily’s hair perfect for every shot during her high school senior portraits. Well, now it is Brianna’s turn in the spotlight, as she is almost halfway through her 4th year at UVA! We’ve been […]

His military career was full of excitement, achievements, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. It is definitely something to brag about, even though he hates it when I do. Since then he has been working […]

Lauryn is a senior at Grassfield High School – class of 2017. When she first messaged me about doing her senior pictures and said she loved football and wanted to include that in her session, I knew it was going to be a fun one! She brought her Ohio State gear, where she hopes to […]

I have been photographing these kids for 4 years now!! It’s crazy how much they have grown (especially when you look back at their old pictures from 2013 and 2014 here …p.s. don’t judge me on my photography skills from back then)! We never got around to doing pictures last year, so this session was in the […]

Lorie had an idea to surprise her husband for Christmas with a picture of her with her horse, Pumpkin, and Goldendoodle, Gretal. We had a date set and everything planned but when Lorie was getting ready to leave her house to head to the barn on the day of the session, her husband had his […]

Haley and Mason were such a fun couple to work with! Haley contacted me wanting to get some pictures of her and her husband, and being new to the area, asked for advice on locations. After giving her a few options, she chose the barn! That has been a popular spot lately 🙂 and for […]

There is nothing like getting your photos off of the computer and bringing them to life in print! That is why most of my equestrian session packages include prints and canvases. I am a true believer that you should print your photos. It is so much different seeing photos in print than it is on […]
