McNamara Family | Unionville, Va

This pretty awesome family won my free fall mini session back in October. I met Kari over 5 years ago at a little party with friends. We lost touch of course I didn’t really know her that well (but I was totally missing out she and her family are so much fun) They truly made me work for every picture but hey, I don’t mind a little challenged here and there and lets just say I won. We got a lot of great pictures! <3

Travis & Rachel Family Session | Culpeper, VA

I really had a great time photographing this beautiful family.  I know it may not look it at all but miss Chelsea didn’t care too much for the camera OR me.  I hope the next time I see her again she will like me a little more and will not want to put her hands in her face.  Either way I have to say this family got perfect timing for the fall colors <3

Katie & Matt + Family

I am truly blessed to have some pretty amazing friends. Katie and I have been friends scene we both pregnant with our girls. They were actually born 2 weeks apart from one another. Now our girls are both 5 years old. Since then Katie has meet a pretty wonderful man and his son. I will not lie I can finally see how truly happy Katie is in all these pictures despite the fact things were not perfect in these pictures. I know that these pictures mean a lot to both Matt and Katie. <3

 

 

 

 

 

 

Josh & Naomi | Culpeper, VA

I am so thrilled that Naomi contacted me to do her and Josh’s pictures.  We had a blast and it was so easy to photograph these two because of how much their love shined through each and every single picture I took. (Which made it hard to choose) hehe
The leaves here on the Farm were perfect that day as well as the sunset.  So I just KNEW it that their session would be a new favorite of mine!

Ruhlman Family | Rappahannock, VA

Meet the Ruhlman Family.
I haven’t seen Julie in 6 years we went to school together all way from 4th grade.  It was so nice to finally meet her husband and two little boys that I have seen grow up on Facebook. It’s amazing how you watch people grow on Facebook these days haha
Can you believe she is due in 4 weeks? I totally wish I could have looked as good as her pregnant that far along. =)
Anyways I finally got to meet them and I was so happy to work with her two very active boys.  Julie was worried we wouldn’t  be able to get any pictures of them but like I always tell every client of mine.  You can’t pose children you basically have to capture them being who they are.
Besides those are the real candid pictures you want anyways!

I am so excited to share these pictures with Julie and everyone else!
