When Allie visited the Four Seasons in Baltimore for the first time…she knew right away that this was the right place for their wedding! She fell in love with the deck that overlooks the Inner Harbor and the beautiful ballroom with big windows that let the natural light pour in well into the evening…it’s easy to see why she chose this as the place for her and Ryan to celebrate their marriage!

You may remember Andy and Lauren from their beautiful Duke University engagement session last spring…I’d been looking forward to their wedding day ever since! Not just because they are an absolutely gorgeous couple and I knew their wedding was going to be beautiful to photograph, but because they are a military couple so they had to spend much of their engagement apart! I was so excited for them when the big day finally came…

I first met Andrew and Catherine for their engagement session in Charlottesville at Ash Lawn-Highland and immediately fell in love with their story and who they are as a couple…I love how they bring out each other’s silly sides and they don’t take anything too seriously…their wedding was a perfect reflection of them and I was so honored to get to capture it!

I’ve been excited to meet Kirsten and Cliff for so many months and I’m so happy that it was finally time for their engagement session this past week…we made plans to meet in Old Town Alexandria where they had already chosen some of their favorite spots for portraits!

A glimpse into my daily life in Richmond, VA (and travels beyond) with my husband Ryan, our son Gray, and our disobedient puppy Lexie, plus the work, style and attempts at minimalism in between.
