Baby N {Newborn Photographer}


Baby N has a special place in my heart.. She is my best friend's baby girl.  I was so excited to make my trip to Greenville, NC to meet her, cuddle and snuggle her and see my best friend K.  We spent the whole week together and did some newborn portraits along the way.  We have already decided our youngest future and both baby N and my baby S will be best friends :) We will make sure of it! Baby N isn't my typical 0-10 day old newborn, but she did a good job ONCE she fell asleep :)  Here are a few of my favs from the session. I hope you like them best friend and I can not wait to see some of these on your wall in the nursery!!

Baby K {New Kent Newborn Photographer}


I love when my past clients come back to do pictures. I have done Shelley and Scott's engagement portraits, Shelley's bridal portraits and their beautiful wedding.  When Shelley messaged me about photographing her newborn baby girl, I was ecstatic! I knew she was going to be gorgeous too, just like her momma and daddy! And she did SUCH a wonderful job! We had to wait until Baby K came back from the hospital because she was 5 weeks early, but she was still so sleepy and SO little I was in heaven! Enjoy this little miracle baby and leave some love for the new family! {I had a hard time picking and choosing my favorites :)}







PreDeployment {Hampton Road Oplove Photographer}

Being in the military is a hard job, especially when you are about to come to a Deployment.  Deployments to me are the hardest! Even though my husband hasn't been on a deployment yet, he was gone with the military for basically 2 1/2 years and it puts a toll on your family.  Getting predeployment pictures is a great way to remember how much love there is in a family and to also have something to look forward too while the deployment is going on.

Being a oplove photographer is a honor and I love shooting for military families! This was wasn't any exception either! Their little boy had me working hard that day to get him to smile, but I think we captured some great memories!

Good luck and God Speed!! See you when you get back!

A Family {Virginia's Eastern Shore Family Photographer}

Being able to photograph at the beach is a privilege and I am so lucky to be able to do it every summer and every year.  I also love it when clients come back to get their family portraits done by me.  I have photographed these girls and their mom before and this time I was happy to see their whole family {aka dad and even a few of grandma}. 

Thanks again K for allowing me to photograph your beautiful family! I enjoyed running after your adorable girls! Enjoy a few of my favorites!
