It’s been a whirlwind in the office the last couple days. With the news from our governor yesterday about our official stay-at-home order, all our lovely couples scrambled to reschedule their weddings from now through June. It’s going to be a VERY busy Fall for sure, but so much LOVE! I’m sad that I will not be able to celebrate with them until summer/fall but and so happy to be able to capture their love stories. Along with the postponement of weddings, all photo sessions are also postponed until we are given the all clear. .

I’m here for video chats, emails and other virtual meetings. If you need me don’t hesitate to reach out!

“I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand. Felt so good in it, no bigger than a minute. How it amazes me, you're changing with every blink. Faster than a flower blooms they grow up all too soon. So let them be little, cause they're only that way for a while. Give them hope, give them praise, give them love, every day.”

This morning was not like any other 4 year old birthday “party” I have ever shot. Awesome Fox turned 4 years old today!! And I was so thrilled to be able to capture his birthday parade!! That’s right you read it here first. Fox had his very own birthday parade. His parents planned this special drive by event just for him! And I was beyond excited to capture his joy, his friends joy, his sister cupcake eating joy and the love & joy from his amazing mom & dad. Please note, We all followed all the appropriate social distancing rules and did not congregate. Instead friends paraded down the street as Fox and family cheered and waved. What a perfect way to celebrate during this crazy and uncertain time! Happy birthday, Fox! .

“There's a wild, wild whisper. Blowin' in the wind. Callin' out my name like a long lost friend. Oh I miss those days as the years go by. Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime. And American honey”

With this little bit of extra downtime and #stayhome time. Yesterday I set up a little self-portrait porch session. And how sweet is @boxer_dog_cricket .
.
.
I also wanted to send out some positive vibes to all my clients and couples. This is an uneasy time for all of us. I can feel the pain in postponing events and canceling sessions. Trust me you guys, once we weather this awful storm, the weddings, sessions, and events will be joyfully filled with laughter love and hugs! I’m here for each and everyone of you. Feel free to reach out on social media, email, text or even FaceTime! We got this!!

“Baby, I never thought so much love. Could fit in a little band of gold. But I'm telling you, darling. I feel it in my heart, got it in my soul. With this ring I promise I'll always love you, always love you.”

Happy Wedding Wednesday everyone. Here a little bright & sparkly spot on your otherwise cloudy & stressful day. A little bit of gold, a precious stone and a whole lot of love. I can’t get enough of this shot of Jenny as she gets ready to say I do. .

“Maybe it's intuition. Somethings you just don't

“Maybe it's intuition. Somethings you just don't question. Like in your eyes, I see my future in an instant. And there it goes, I think I've found my best friend. I know that it might sound. More than a little crazy. But I believe. I knew I loved you before I met you. I think I dreamed you into life. I knew I loved you before I met you. I have been waiting all my life”

Friday morning I was part of the perfect intimate wedding. It wasn’t what Becky & Jackson had planned, but it was nothing short of amazing. They like many other couples had planned to have their 100+ guest wedding at a gorgeous park later this month. However because of this uncertain time we are all dealing with they had to cancel their dream wedding and scrambled to secure a place to say I do with their family & a very few friends (and a ton of family and friends on a live stream. Technology at it best!!). They had to make sure they had flowers, food and of course a photographer all in a 48 hour time frame. I was not their original photographer, but I am BEYOND thrilled that I became their photographer that was available and willing to capture their most precious day. They were surrounded with so much love and laughter and a few happy tears! Congrats you two, thanks for having me capture your day.
.
.
And this is why I do what I do. We are living in such a stressful and weird time. So when I have the chance to document love, I’m going to do it! (Of course with proper social distancing.)It’s about the love, That feeling that you just want to marry your person and start your lives together! Weddings aren’t about the production they are about the love of two people and the family and friends who support them. So on Friday, love won! .

It’s self-care Sunday. And it couldn’t be a more perfect time for everyone to get a little rest and reflection. With all the panic, uncertainty and stress that we are living through with COVID-19 right now, our best defense is to slow down, stay home and just rest and restore. Rest our minds, our fears, our uneasy thoughts. Restore our passions and our self worth. Self-care is so important. If you need some ideas on ways to enjoy your self-care Sunday, look no further:
1. Soak in the tub
2. Read a good book
3. Journal
4. Lay on the couch and just daydream
5. Meditate
6. In home yoga
7. Go for a walk or hike
8. Bake
9. Take a nap
10. Cuddle the dog

“Oh baby baby, no one else comes close to you. No one makes me feel the way you do. You're so special girl to me. And you'll always be eternally. Every time I hold you near. You always say the words I love to hear. Girl with just a touch, you can do so much. No one else comes close.”

This was JMU yesterday. It was a dream session for these two, but a process to get us there. We had planned to capture their session at the library of Congress late February, I was pumped but we had to reschedule for 3/13.. well we all know what that meant, a scramble on Thursday to find a new location for their session since so many places were closing due to COVID-19. So where to go, what to do? Well, Both Emilia and Rick graduated from JMU, the campus means the world to them, and since the students were gone and campus was closed it was the perfect choice for their sweet reminiscing filled engagement session. No one around and beautiful views anyway you looked. I loved capturing every moment of it. And bonus, it was 70 degrees and the trees were blooming. So their dream of a session on Friday the 13th was just perfect. Im so looking forward to their October wedding. I mean look at the love they share... you can feel it just look at the photos. ❤️ thanks for an awesome time yesaterday @emiliapotero @richard.rizzo13 .

Friday afternoon was so great with these two. We tackled the wind and cold but it was totally worth it! M&N rocked their engagement session in downtown leesburg. I loved capturing them and seeing the wonderful love they share. We also had so many fun in counters as we explored town: cats, dogs and even some photo bombers. I’ll have to share those shots soon!! Anyhow thanks so much for choosing me to capture these moments and I cannot wait for your NYE wedding!! .
