Your engagement sessions, aka the pre-wedding photoshoot, is where you and your fiancé get to show off your love and your outfits. And it’s always fun to choose a unique location.

Do these two look a little familiar?  Well they should!  I shot their proposal a few weeks ago!  Here’s a link to see what happened during the Proposal.  I love it when couples’ choose locations that are so meaningful to their relationship story.  Josh and Bethy lived right around the corner from here and probably […]

Congratulations to Mary and Duncan on their Engagement!  We had so much fun walking through Georgetown in Washington DC.  The longer we walked the better the scenery got!  They got used to hearing me flip out!  But I mean, “Come on!” Even the drivers in the streets cooperated with us.  The first image I shot […]

A huge thank you to these two wonderful human beings for understanding why I needed to reschedule our Engagement Session by a couple months.  When I realized I was needing to have another foot surgery to correct the previous one, they didn’t blink an eye.  Esther even reached out to me following my surgery to […]

Congratulations to Melinda and Daniel on your Engagement! We started their Engagement Session at Bluemont Vineyards on a beautiful Summer day.  We met and were about 40 minutes into our session when the skies turned dark and threatening.  So we had to cut the session short, which I felt badly about, but no one wants […]

Engagement session in the Virginia Countryside amongst rolling hills of the blueridge mountains.

I’ve never met a couple that could break into laughter as easily.  Megan and Luis were an absolute joy to get to know during their Engagement Session at the Virginia Arboretum, a.k.a.

Congratulations to Morgan and David on their Engagement! I had the pleasure of meeting Morgan when we worked together on a previous wedding.  She was the venue coordinator and was so helpful behind-the-scenes.  When she contacted me about possibly shooting her own wedding, I felt so honored.  Because she’s seen me at my possibly “not-so-professional” […]
