Anna and Caleb’s engagement session was so much fun. We explored one of my favorite areas in Fredericksburg and then headed to a beautiful field on the […]

There is just something about capturing the love between two people that just makes my heart melt and I LOVE couples that choose to have photos done outside of their engagement or their wedding day! Capturing memories throughout your entire relationship, whether you […]
