The Blog!

Thanks for taking the time to stop by the blog! I hope you'll check back frequently to see my most recent images from all of my sessions, weddings and other random insights.

I don't want this to get too long, but one of the most common questions I am asked is about where I am based. The answer is definitely two-fold. I began my professional photography career in the D.C/Baltimore area in 2004 where I lived and schooled about an hour away in Shepherdstown, Wv. In December 2007, I graduated from Shepherd University with my BFA in Photography and Computer Digital Imaging. The second part of the answer is that my hometown is Charleston Wv (south/central wv). About 5 hours southwest of the DC/Baltimore area. I have always traveled back and forth between the two areas, but since I was in school, the majority of my time was spent there. Since I graduated, I have been traveling back and forth between the two areas a great deal more. I love both areas and absolutely love that I am able to travel so often back and forth doing what I love.

Laura and Corey - Charleston, Wv

It is time for a new blog!
Unfortunately the blog was put in the deepest corner of my mind during the end of wedding season which coincidentally coincided with finals. (eep!)  It was crazy and stressful, but worth it all in the end. Grades posted today - 2 A’s and 1 B.  Thanks to everyone for your amazing support :)  I couldn’t have done it otherwise.  Grad school is intense!

I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season.  I have had some amazing amazing amazing weddings and sessions lately and I am SO EXCITED to blog them all!!

Now, on to the good stuff!  Laura and Corey were married on September 20th in Charleston, Wv - my hometown!  We were able to explore my favorite parts of town after the ceremony, the weather was absolutely perfect and everyone was so fun to work with!

super fun slideshow! Emily and Dave’s engagement session

I met up with Emily and Dave in Ellicott City for their engagement session. My second time in Ellicott City and I loved it even more the second time around. It was fabulous working with them, and Sam was pretty awesome too :)

These are the most functional bridesmaid dresses ever. The girls all wore the same style during the ceremony and then each changed to a different style for the reception.  So great!

Tia and Jacob - wedding

Tia and Jacob had such an amazing day for their wedding.  The area, the day before, was being hit with some major fall off from the hurricanes in the south and it didn’t look promising.  I can’t believe the day was so amazing, considering the monsoon the day before!

Venue: Stone Manor Country Club in Middletown, Md
