Portraits

Today was such a beautiful day, so Tess and I thought it would be a perfect time to do a few quick shots with her Dixie dog. That being said, here are two pictures from Tess' mini children's portrait session.

It was such a lovely day to be out taking these professional portraits for University of Mary Washingtons' Residence Life team.

We traveled quite a distance, from our home town of Fredericksburg Virginia, to capture these portraits of this little one. Harper is just 12 days new in these photos.

To say that we are biased about how cute this baby is, might be the understatement of the century. Matt and I are thrilled to present Teresa Ann, our newest family member! Named after my mother who passed nine years ago this December, Teresa, or Tessie for short, has turned our world upside down, in all the best ways. She is a red haired spit fire who sleeps up to four hours in a stretch at night, barely cries, and loves looking at her daddy. Please enjoy these photos tak ......

Kelley and I met when we were four or five years old at a dog show in Maryland, and we've been friends ever since. Over the last few years, our friendship has grown stronger with the help of girls' weekends, lots of wine, good food, and some really fun times. I cannot even remember when I first met Susan as she so effortlessly blended into our friendship, it was like we had been a trio since we were young. However, I will remember the night when Kelley, Matt and I went out ......

Over the past two years and some odd months, we have been fortunate to have Dan and Melissa as repeat customers: with Melissa's first maternity, the birth of Noah, Noah's 1st birthday and now with Melissa's second maternity. Watching this little family grow and being able to capture their milestones has meant the world to us. With her second child, Melissa chose an outdoor shoot and after being cancelled out of a location in Richmond, we decided that doing the photoshoot at Dan and M ......

Here is a quick sneak peek of Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Huffman at the beautiful Outer Banks, NC

When I found out Melissa and Dan were expecting, I got so excited! I have known the couple since our sophomore year of college at University of Mary Washington. I remember when Dan and Melissa were dating, when they got engaged and then when they got married. Probably two of the nicest people I know, I am so happy they are going to be parents very soon. Even though we have lost touch over the years, we reconnected when I heard about baby Noah, and I was able to talk the c ......

Katelyn and Jason were referred to us through a very good mutual friend about two months ago and I was told that, like me, Katelyn was a 2010 University of Mary Washington grad with a major in English. Immediately I was excited to meet her and see if we recognized each other from any of the classes that we inevitably took together. At that first meeting, we swapped old English major stories and talked about their October 2012 wedding.Just this past weekend, Matt and I met up with Kat ......

What a fun shoot this was!Rachel and Edwin recently became engaged in late 2010, and while they have already picked a photographer, Rachel asked Michelle for a fun picture for their Save the Date postcards. Rachel came across this fantastic idea online and modified it with Michelle to suit Edwin??™s concerns (a business owner with ink on his face?), using eyeliner instead of pen or marker.Going into the shoot, Michelle had the picture in her mind, but Matt wanted the couple to have ”backup� ......
