I had the pleasure of working with the G family a couple of weeks ago.  They were taking a trip to Carter Mountain and wanted to have some family photos to document their experience.  Unfortunately, their littlest one got sick and had to be taken to the ER that night so our session was postponed for a couple of weeks.  Thankfully, he is doing much better now! And it ended up working out perfectly because the weather was beautiful and they enjoyed another trip to the apple orchard. 🙂    I had such a fun time with this family, they are full of laughter and love and it shows through their photos!   Below are some favorites of mine from our session together.   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 IMAGEThis image below is too cute!

I had been looking forward to photographing Joe and Angela’s wedding for so long!  They are such a sweet couple and I had a great time with them during their engagement session this past summer.  Finally the day came when they were married at the Valentine Museum in downtown Richmond…what a gorgeous venue!  Family and friends gathered for a beautiful ceremony….unfortunately, it was rainy, but that didnt stop the fun!  And they say its good luck to rain on your wedding day right?!!  Below are some of my favorites from Joe and Angela’s wedding day.  It was such an honor to be a part of their special day!   PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGEAngela, you look stunning!

Its been a LONG time since I have posted anything personal on the blog…I really tried to keep the balance this summer with work and the kids being at home all day and I guess I didnt do a very good job! :/  Then August came around and with vacation and the school year starting right after, things have been NON STOP!  Its been quite an adjustment now that both kids are in school(you’d think that life would be a little bit easier, but in fact, its gotten that much harder)  Double homework, double sports, double everything!  Our lives are non stop…Im sure every family can relate to this!  But running a business takes a lot of time and effort so Ive been a little stressed out to say the least!

I wont turn this into a long post, but I just wanted to do a little recap of our summer!  I think the kids had a GREAT couple of months.  We did a little bit of EVERYTHING!  Gymnastics, soccer, swimming, playdates, trips to the beach, putt putt, reading, bike riding, ice cream eating, produce stand shopping, hiking, strawberry picking, blueberry picking, a trip to jumpology, the movies, tree house building, birthday parties, sleepovers, tent building, marshmallow roasting, sparkler fun, fishing, VBS, bubble blowing, side walk chalk drawing, fire fly catching, drive in movie watching, and flat out being lazy some days!  Overall, it was a fun(and busy!) summer!  But now its time for that little thing called STRUCTURE again!  Now that we are in a good routine, I am going to try to focus on blogging more.  Yes, it took us a solid MONTH to finally get in the swing of things haha!  Ive got a several blog posts that will be coming soon(weddings, engagement sessions, personal photos, etc) so stay tuned!  Now that I have put that out there Ive got to stick with it haha!

I will leave you with a few photos that I recently took of Kaleigh…I didnt get a chance to take any for her birthday this year(well, she wouldnt let me!) so I decided to do something before the school year started.  🙂   PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE

Mike and Abi were married near the end of August….and Virginia’s weather this year proved to be beautiful!  Normally, the end of August is dreadfully hot, and with the wedding being outside, I was a little nervous.  However, the day could not have been more perfect!  The weather was SO nice and everything was so beautiful!  Abi and her family and friends did everything themselves for the decor, flowers, etc and Abi even made all of her bridesmaids their hair pieces!  I loved the rustic theme of the wedding!  Abi is such a laid back person and everything seem to flow without effort.  Below are some of my favorites from the day.  Thank you Mike and Abi for allowing me to be a part of your special day!   PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGELove these boots!

I had the pleasure of working with Abi and her sweet baby girl for Abi’s bridal session.  It was such a gorgeous day and Abi looked stunning!  Maymont is such a beautiful place for photos, any time of year and for any occasion so I was excited when Abi told me this was where she wanted to do her bridals!  Below are some favorites of mine! 🙂 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 PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE PIN IMAGE
