Jun 12, 2024

I’m currently in the middle of packing for a beach trip. Yes, I’m already dreaming of the ocean waves and sand between my toes! You know how it is — getting all those last-minute things done, so I can truly relax and not think about anything business-related while I’m away. But before I hit the […]

Longwood Gardens Summer Senior Session

Jul 14, 2023

From 2020 all the way to 2023, the Hagan sisters have never disappointed at their photo shoots. You may remember that last name because Lauren was one of my senior spokesmodels the first year I had the team. Check out her session here. Now, this year, Paige was one of my senior spokesmodels. She brought […]

Vibrant Speedwell Forge Lake Senior Session

Apr 20, 2023

Holy Smokes!! I love the outfits all of my seniors wear for their sessions, but sometimes, a senior will come and be an absolute show-stopper! One of those times just happened at Marley’s vibrant Speedwell Forge Lake senior session! Each senior is able to do up to four outfits throughout their session. I love giving […]

Just picture the most chill but fun couple you can! For me, that’s Tara and Wesley! Their fall Pinnacle Point Engagement Session was like going on a hike with two close friends!

Boho Overlook Park Senior Session

Aug 31, 2022

One tough cookie! This is how I would describe Renee in one sentence. She is one tough cookie! I first met Renee back on one of the volleyball teams that I coached a few years ago. She always came ready to play and was tough! Not much phased her. But it wasn’t until our first […]
