We just had our first married Christmas. That’s kind of a big deal from what we’ve been told (and from how many times we’ve been asked, “how was your first married Christmas?”) Bethany and I were the first married in both of our families so we know that we’ve only gotten a tiny taste of […]

It’s been a full year to say the least. Full of BIG moments (like saying ‘I do’) and small (like deciding how to spend our first Christmas as a married couple). We’ve traveled, we’ve celebrated, we’ve laughed, we’ve prayed, we’ve grieved, we’ve learned, and we’ve loved. We’ve had a full year and to be honest, […]

Growing kids, well behaved dogs, clients that feel like friends… a Sunday afternoon with these guys was GOOD! We’ve had a lot of repeat clients this year and we’ve loved it! It’s been a dream come true to actually get to know our families and couples instead of just showing up, taking a few shots, […]

Remember these guys from a few weeks ago?? In one month, we got to photograph the Copland gang with both sides of the family- Andy’s parents AND Anne’s family! We’re getting some major quality time with these friends this season!  This time we got to hang out at Anne’s parents home in Louisa with her […]

Remember this sweet family from last February?? We got to meet little Annabelle when she was only a few weeks old (those are still some of our favorite newborn portraits)! We could not believe how much she’d grown since then! So much personality for such a little person! We met up with Melissa, Dave, and […]

When Bethany and I got married I realized I wasn’t your “typical” groom. I didn’t just want to be given 3 options and asked to choose my favorite. I wanted to be involved in the process- I wanted to be part of designing our day from beginning to end. Jordan and I have that in […]

The wind seriously had it out for us when we met Samantha and Mike at Early Mountain Vineyards for their engagement session. It came barreling over the mountains and tossed our hair and chapped our cheeks, but the warmth between these two was still obvious.  We wandered around the property (trying to avoid the wedding […]

You may recognize this family from last fall when we first got to hang out with them and photograph their sweet little family of three. We were thrilled when we found out that they were expecting a little boy and that we were going to get to meet him for ourselves!  Rowan was such a […]

The Gavin’s kids are best buddies with the kiddos Bethany hangs out with every day- so we were excited when they asked us to take some family portraits for them. We had the most beautiful field with tall grass for the kids to run around in- and run they did!  Chase and Olivia were big […]

We love shooting engagement sessions because we know that we get the opportunity to see our couples again on their wedding days. Sadly a lot of our family sessions are the only time we get to hang out with some really fun families. Thankfully that was not the case for Emily, David, and Ayda! You […]
