During my time as an equestrian I never had a lot of money to buy the latest and greatest tack, apparel, or equipment, so after all of these years I have some great tips for riding on a budget that I’d like to share! Let’s start with where to shop! Tack of the Day Tack of […]

I think Audrey & Brian’s Norfolk, VA military homecoming was the first military homecoming I’ve photographed where the date and time didn’t get changed after it was set…crazy, I know! It was one week before Labor Day at the Norfolk International Airport at 10:30pm. Audrey and her girls were so sweet, adorable and fun to hang out with while […]

When Maggie’s mom contacted me about doing her senior pictures and then mentioned they were on a time crunch because the horse she is leasing has to go back at the end of the month, my heart fluttered! Capturing seniors at this special time in their lives is something I love, but what I love […]

Out of 9 grandchildren on my mom’s side of the family, she will be the 6th to graduate from high school and it seems like graduations are coming faster […]

I have been so honored to be a part of so many homecomings lately, but I was especially excited about this one because it was my first fly-in homecoming…which is pretty awesome by the way! Not only that, but Sarah is also a photographer and it was so awesome (and a little nerve wrecking) to […]

After we got our master bathroom remodel under our belt, the next project was the guest bathroom! This time, we didn’t have to do as much plumbing work (woohoo!) and we learned a lot from the first go around, so this one definitely went more smoothly. We couldn’t wait to get rid of the linoleum floors and […]

I finally made the time to share our master bathroom remodel that we completed back in February of last year. We had never done such a big project and it was our first time doing tile so it was an adventure to say the least! We couldn’t have done it without the help of friends […]

I have been so fortunate to be a part of so many military homecomings this year but this one was a first! Shannon contacted me way back in November and I am so glad she did because after she booked me, I had several other requests for the same homecoming. After a few date changes, […]

Lisa received an equestrian session for her birthday from her husband and parents (talk about the best husband and parents ever!). Since her birthday was in March, we decided to wait a month or so until Vinny lost his winter coat (and for the weather to get itself together) to schedule their session. That also worked […]

Cypress Creek Country Club Wedding – Virginia Beach, VA When Lauren and Tyler asked me to be a part of their wedding day as their photographer I was so honored and excited!! (You might recognize them from their engagement session last fall.) Since I am Lauren’s cousin, she was worried I wouldn’t be able to […]

You might recognize Jordan, Chad and their sweet dog, Cooper, from their holiday mini session where they announced that they were expecting. It seems like that was only a couple of months ago but they will be welcoming their little girl, Lena Vaughn, into the world in just about a month! I was so honored when they asked […]
