A First Landing Park Engagement Session Scarlett and Dino 2015 Scarlett & Dino are getting married! Back in November, I was invited to document my first Homecoming. It was cold like no other day, it was crowded and it was super early! I watched Scarlett wait for her love Dino under those conditions. She didn’t care, her excitement was so contagious, I didn’t care either. Then, a couple of months later I received THE email. Yes, Dino had proposed and they wanted me to document their celebration. Of course, I said Yes! Here are some of my favorites from their engagement session at First Landing Park. This time around there…

Lindley + Jacques: A Fort Monroe Engagement
2015 You may be like, “wait, I know this couple!”. And yes, yes you do. Lindley & Jacques had an overcast, rainy Downtown Norfolk Engagement session last November. We thought it would be fun, and we were right, to have another engagement session before their wedding celebration in August. The sun was in our favor! Here are some of my favorites.

Lindley + Jacques: Downtown Norfolk Engagement
2014 I love seeing Lindley and Jacques smile. I do, I do! They are super fun and well, “hello gorgeous legs”! (Sorry Jacques, you were wearing jeans so I can’t comment on that). This was a very cloudy day. No sun to be found anywhere, yet the colors were so rich, beautiful and romantic. The rain was following us and I was so in the moment that didn’t realize it rained in the last couple of images until I had shot the last one. Then it poured! Sadly I was already in my car but I secretly wished I would have stayed a little longer. Lindley and Jacques got wet…

Norfolk Botanical Garden Engagement Session | Alie + Dan
Norfolk Botanical Garden Engagement 2014 This Norfolk Botanical Garden Engagement Session was a dream. I love when couples decide to have their engagement session in a place that is true to their hearts and their journey. Oh, how I loved these two and their love story. Beautiful people in a beautiful setting. The weather was perfect and their spontaneous love for each other was evident every time I clicked my shutter. Alie and Dan met online. Sometimes we look in our circle for that special someone when stepping out of it makes us actually meet them. They are perfect for each other. He loves her smile (and she does have…

Megan + Jeff: Engaged! | First Landing State Park Engagement
2014 There are some sessions when everything is perfect. The lighting, the view, crowd, and weather simply works for us. The day Megan & Jeff were finally able to have their engagement sessions after two reschedules thanks to the rainy days, was indeed perfect. Megan & Jeff went to the boat ramp first thinking that’s where I was waiting for them, which worked great because I’ve been wanting to do a couple’s or maternity sessions there for a long time. I was so happy when they agreed to stop by there for some Wedding timeline talk and a couple of quiet shots. We started in First Landing State Park for…

Susan + Rocky: Downtown Norfolk Engagement Session Photographer
2014 Susan and Rocky decided to have two elements in their engagement session. We went for the Urban edge starting in Downtown Norfolk and then for the Nature side in Red Wing Park. I had not met them before so when I saw them waiting for me on the other side of Monticello Arcade, I was like, “Oh yes!”. Susan and Rocky have a great sense of style (according to Rocky, Susan is the cause of him to be like this). They looked wonderful, and well, did you see Susan’s legs?! Yes, I know you noticed. It was so great to work with them and allow them to just “be…

MaKella + Josh | Downtown Norfolk Engagement Photographer
Downtown Norfolk Engagement MaKella + Josh 2014 Beautiful background? Check. Beautiful people? Double Check. So far I have not photographed not even one “unbeautiful” person (It is a word even when my spellchecker says otherwise!). Every one of my clients, friends, and people I have come in contact with this business is easy on the eyes. Like I’ve said before, I am a magnet for beauty. MaKella and Josh are no different. I don’t know if it’s the happiness within them, their choice of attire (which rocks by the way) or that good genes run in the family, but they photograph amazingly! They are also super sweet and funny and…
