It’s been pretty amazing to get to celebrate with friends as they head into the adventure of welcoming a new child into their families! It’s also been a good reminder that I guess we’re not highschoolers anymore! haha :) Recently, I met up with Cora & Drew and got a chance to catch up on…

Jerusalem Mill Spring Family Photos with the Soumah Family

Calling this a “Spring” family session might be a stretch.. it feels hard to imagine now that we’re getting warmer days again, but the evening of the Soumah family’s session was windy and chilly!! But they were so easy-going about it, and totally made it seem effortless to look adorable and happy in the cold! I loved…

(Counting down and getting excited that my sweet friend and mom-to-be Jenna has just about a month to go before we all get to meet baby Dean!!) It was just earlier this year (um hello, how…

Jenna & Jake’s Ocean City Maternity Session | OC Photographer

This weekend we get to shower Jenna & baby Dean in all the love! (ahhh!!)

2016 Personal Recap: Styled Shoots, Travels, Events & More

After sharing THREE blog posts of favorite (family, engagement, and wedding) photos from the year, you’d think there wouldn’t be much more to post about.. but the great thing about doing these recaps is getting to remember how much actually happened in the last 12 months. 2015 was almost an easy year to recap, Adam…

It's about the experience, about the joy and the love and the relationships with the most important people in your life. Whether it's your wedding day, engagement, or family session, it's about you soaking up every bit of it, and having beautiful photos to cherish afterwards. I love love, and love meeting new people.

Before everyone gets ready to say ✌️ to 2020, Before everyone gets ready to say ✌️ to 2020, here’s a look back to NYE last year! The most gorgeous December day as Corinne and Zach celebrated their marriage in a sweet intimate ceremony at Artifact Coffee! Loved capturing this day for these two and so grateful that 2020 gave us the chance to reunite again when they helped officiate their close friends Lesley and John’s intimate wedding. Happy happy anniversary Corinne and Zach! Happy first year of marriage, and here’s to many more happy and healthy years to come!! 💗
