I have been looking forward to Mackenzie and Brian’s wedding day since the day I met them last year. They are kind, joyful, bubbly and just so wonderfully welcoming to everyone they meet. When I arrived at the bridal cottage on the morning of the wedding, Mackenzie welcomed me with the sweetest hug and she […]
I’ve been SO stinking excited to share these since last week!!! Savannah and Devin chose to do their engagement session at The Market at Grelen, which is a location I had never photographed. I tend to shoot the majority of my engagement sessions in Fredericksburg, but it is always exciting to me as a photographer […]

If you had asked me two years ago to outsource an area of my business…I would have laughed at you. The idea of giving someone ELSE responsibility within MY business was a terrifying concept to me. My business is my baby! Why in the world would I let a random person come in and do work […]
When Victoria and Ryan emailed me, they were overwhelmed because they couldn’t find a photographer available for their wedding day. It was a super popular weekend this year, and she had reached out to friends of mine that weren’t available that referred her my way. She was SURE that I was going to be booked…but […]
