It is always strange for us to be on the other side of the camera, but we have gotten used to it after being together for over seven years! I knew after we found out we were pregnant that Emily Gerald would be the perfect person to shoot our newborn session. She is a very talented baby + birth photographer based in Virginia and she is just the sweetest!
The past few weeks I have gone into full out "nesting" waiting for baby P to arrive in hopefully under 3 weeks! While we are waiting, I thought it would be fun to do a milk bath maternity session a few weeks before I was due since my belly would be very large. My good friend Hannah told me she would take the pictures and I was so excited!
I look forward to post this blog every year! Kevin does a great job of taking behind the scenes pictures during the wedding day. It is cool to see the environment you are in when shooting and then the final picture next to it! In 2016 we decided to move from shooting 20+ weddings to capping at 15. This was the best decision we made for our business and family because we were able to really focus on each couple and still have time for our marriage throughout the year.
Eeek!! I am so excited about these images. My talented friend Hannah Leigh Photography took our maternity photos and they are amazing! I am so thankful for our little photography network and all of the friendships that have blossomed out of meeting up together. We wanted to do a few pictures at our house with Sadie in cozy outfits before heading over to Cromwell Valley Park!
We had a hard time picking a name for our little baby girl. To have both Kevin and I agree + love the same name was tough!! We had tossed around a few names here and there but didn't really start the conversation until we found out we were having a girl. Then the fun began.
2016 was a big year for us! Rebranding, continuing to work with amazing clients, and our first printed feature in The Knot! Taylor and Bryan's wedding was the perfect fit for the 2016 Fall/Winter issue of The Knot. They tied the knot at Whitehall Estate in Bluemont, VA with gorgeous florals, details designed by the bride, and a bridesmaid that was a contestant on the Bachelor!
You may have heard me talk about how the Creative at Heart Conference has impacted my business. The Creative at Heart Conference's mission is this: Our goal is simple: we want to inspire the hearts of like-minded creatives. We want you to know that you're not alone.
I have mentioned this group of girls a few times on my blog and how much they mean to me. Having a community is ESSENTIAL, especially when you are running your own business. The six of us headed off to Rehoboth beach for a weekend of rest and relaxation.
The new site is finally here!!! After months of work with the oh so talented PB&J, we have an updated and refreshed brand that I am excited about. Kevin and I wanted to communicate through our new site several things.
