When I wrote this post last night, I was so excited for Halloween!

I LOVE Halloween!  Its such a fun time of year for the kiddos….they look forward to dressing up each year and going trick-or-treating.  I love to watch them get into character when the put their costumes on….their imaginations are so big and seeing them in action is always the cutest thing!

Unfortunately, this morning Kaleigh woke up not feeling well and ended up throwing up. 🙁  She was so excited to wear her favorite Halloween shirt, give her book report at school on this special day, and go trick-or-treating this evening.  I hope that she feels better throughout the day and is able to go out tonight!

Kaleigh and Carter had a lot of fun with this session….it was literally a 5 minute session, aside from the few that I took of Kaleigh a couple of weeks ago.

I hope everyone has a happy and safe Halloween!  PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE

  

I have worked with Jessica and Jeremy this last year in capturing their son and daughter’s first year of life.  It has been such a wonderful experience to watch the babies grow up and build a relationship with Jessica and Jeremy.  I feel so thankful to have been part of such an important time in their lives and cannot thank them enough for choosing me to be their photographer.  It means the world to me that they trusted me to be the family photographer for them and I hope to continue that as well as the friendship we have created.

I met with the Cooley family this past Wednesday day for our final session of the year 🙁 and Jessica had a gift for me.  It was totally unexpected and I couldn’t be more grateful.  Not only was there a sweet hand written note, but there was also a beautiful necklace that means so much to me!  Thank you Jessica and Jeremy for your thoughtfulness, it means so much to me!

I was so eager to post these, I totally forgot to write about what a fun session this was!

When I first met Grace and Adrien, I knew they were going to be a great couple to work with.  They were so sweet and really excited about the wedding planning.  Originally, they were wanting to be married in October of 2013, but things got pushed up because Adrien is in the military and is going to have to leave sooner than expected.  I am so excited to be their wedding photographer in February of THIS year, so get ready!!  From what I hear, the wedding is going to be AMAZING!…they are working with wedding planner, Keith, from Everything But Your Groom: Exceptional Event Planning.  Catering.  Design.  and I am so excited to work alongside him.

I loved hearing Grace and Adrien’s story about how they met….and it all happened in Blacksburg.  They both attend Virginia Tech, so what better place to hold their engagement shoot than on campus?!  I had SUCH a great time with this couple….there was lots of laughter and it was just plain fun!  I think seeing the images will be a better explanation of how perfect Grace and Adrien are for each other….when they are together, they cant help but smile!  Below are some of my favorite images from the day.  Part II will be coming soon!!  PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEI told you they were a fun couple!
