  • Featured Friday

from vacation. And when I say “kinda” home, I mean we’re physically in RICHMOND…. but we’re still not working. Today is a stay-cation day. We’re getting “life” stuff done around the house. Ya know, laundry, vacuuming, dishes, hang my NEW SAMPLE CANVAS OF BUD & JILL!! Woopwoop! So excited about that one! After the “life” stuff is accomplished, we’re headed to BUSCH GARDENS with one of our favorite couples! Perfect ending to our vacation!!!  So I will be sure to share vacation images next week! (You knew that was coming!) We had such a great time and not only did we get away,

The Nautical Wedding | Annapolis Wedding Photographer

  • Nate + Tiffany

saw Tiffany on her wedding day I said “Um, how in the WORLD did you get so lucky?!”.  Tiffany and Nate decided to have a friday evening wedding about a year ago. Little did they know that the weekend following their wedding was going to be hurricane central! WOW! As I read tweets from other photographers about all of their Saturday weddings that had already been canceled, I became so thankful that I was working on a Friday. Nate and Tiffany are SO fortunate that they had clear skies and a beautiful day for their  wedding. The sun was out all throughout the evening and then the clouds rolled in as the couple made their grand exit on BOAT!

Floral Inspiration from Janie Medley

  • Wedding Wednesday

the quickest Wedding Wednesday post I have EVER posted in all of my blogging years! Yup! That is because I’m writing this post on Sunday night and it’s 1:25 am and I still have so much to do before vacation tomorrow! I’m pre-blogging because I want you all to have some pretties to look at while Michael and I are away at the Greenbrier… yes, the GREENBRIER. We’re so excited for our mini vacation!! So while we’re spending a few days not reading emails and not editing wedding images, enjoy this fun floral DIY shoot that I did with the fabulous Janie Medley a few weeks back! This pink, purple and red centerpiece inspiration was extremely photogenic
