Kristie & Colin { Richmond Virginia Wedding Photographer

Kristie and Colin.. I can truly say it was an honor to shoot their wedding!   They are two of the sweetest people in the world.  Their love for each other bursts through each of these pictures.  As you will see, we did a first look- and it was perfect! Colin had a hard time staying forward, he was very excited to see his bride.  And what a gorgeous bride she made!

A few months ago, Kristie & I had done a special session that she would share with Colin after they were married…

I really think he enjoyed the gift;)

Their reception was at Celebrations at the Reservoir at the manor house and oh! how cute it was.  I wish we were able to get there before the sun went down because it was lovely!

Kendall & Jason { Virginia Wedding Photographer

Two weeks ago I was in Virginia Beach at Hope Lutheran and then at one of the most gorgeous reception locations, the Norfolk Yacht and Country Club in Norfolk.  Kendall & Jason are just perfect together – super playful and cute.  The ceremony was actually one of the best I have been a part of- I will not soon forget the water analogy that the pastor used during the Homily (and totally poured all over the carpet! First time I’ve seen that for sure!) You can see from their faces they were overjoyed to be together, making lifetime commitments to each other in front of family & friends.

Kendall & Jason,
Thank you for letting me be a part of your day. It was beautiful and I wish you many years of happiness!

The D* Family { Chester Virginia Family Photographer

Be prepared: this is one GOOD LOOKING family!
The youngest fella was turning 1 and the family wanted to schedule a portrait session to remember this time in their lives.. he was a little unsure of me at first, but I think he warmed up:)What a sweet family!

I have been debating whether  or not to paint (well, to ask David to paint!) the studio, but it photographs so nicely, and blends in well with the overall “feel” to the studio.  If I paint it, I will do a light grey..what do you think, paint or leave it?

Product Showcase

These two products are not new to the MGP product line, but they are two of my favorites!  Adding an album to your session (the one shown here is an 8×8) will allow a majority (it not all!) of your favorite pictures showcased.  The mini accordions are my most purchased product and are 3×3 – perfect for carrying around town to share with everyone! family session richmond virginia

And yes, you can bring your pets to the session, even if it’s in the studio!  I love having all members of the family involved:)

24 Weeks & a trip to the water { Personal

Last week we took Eli down to the water- It’s full of fun places for little boys to explore.  I wasn’t sure if Eli would want to jump in the water or be content walking beside it, but thankfully neither of us ended up wet:) At 14 months, he is totally at the “I am going to do what I want WHEN I want” stage and doesn’t like to be redirected so he wasn’t very happy when we were leaving his new favorite place..but we promised we would go back soon!
