I had the pleasure of taking engagement photos for Lynne and Drew in New York City this summer thanks to a mutual friend who set us up. I got the chance to explore the Upper East Side a little bit and visit one of their favorite parks in the city. I got to the park [...]
This engagement shoot was the first time I met Ryan (on my third day in the city, I believe). I won't lie - I was nervous. But it came naturally, as it usually does, and by the end of the shoot I was in my element, despite being surrounded by the concrete jungle that is [...]
Cat is my go-to person when I have an idea for a particular shot or location I want to try out. Last week, I was laying in bed thinking about how I was in the mood to take pictures. Sometimes I get in this mood. And it's not fun when it's past midnight so there's [...]
Erin and I lifeguard together at the RAC. Over Christmas break, luckily we were put on the schedule together because that gave us several hours of boredom to talk about anything and everything. One such conversation topic: her senior pictures. Yes, we have been planning this and getting excited for it since December. And it [...]
Lauren wanted to surprise her parents with a gift on graduation day, so she asked me to do some pictures for her the last week of school. We scouted out some fun locations around Blacksburg, and then she showed me her favorite spots at Radford. I'm going to miss this girl so much next year!
I met up with my former cheer teammate, Julie, to take a few pictures for her graduation announcement. We hadn't seen each other since last year sometime, so it was great to catch up, especially right before she heads out into the real world. I have to say, it was during this session that for [...]
I took pictures for the Tuggle family last fall (they were actually the last shoot I did before it started getting way too cold to be outside), and I had the pleasure of photographing their newest addition a couple weeks ago. What a sweet little newborn Drew is!
As usual, I am behind on blog posts. And editing pictures. And uploading to Facebook. Finals got the best of me - my sincerest apologies for the brief hiatus. Last month, my sister and I finally picked a date to do her senior pictures. My friend Ali came along as my assistant (and let me [...]
I always surprise people when I ask them to fake laugh. It's not something everyone looks good doing, but I try it anyway if I haven't gotten a ton of emotion out of the person yet (and because attempting to fake laugh almost always results in real laughs). I didn't have to tell Tyler to [...]
January, February, and March have been slow photography-wise. Super slow. As in I have done maybe two shoots and they were either for a school project or just playing around with friends. This has probably been a blessing because I have had a tough semester with a huge course load, and I've needed to focus [...]
