Back Bay Engagement Session || Brandon & Rachel's Virginia Beach Engagement Photos

Guys! I am so excited to be sharing Brandon & Rachel’s engagement session from Back Bay Wildlife Refuge! I sat down to edit a few sneak peeks and couldn’t even help myself- I ended up editing their entire session and cannot even choose a few favorites for social media! And we all know, I’m obsessed with beautiful weather, the sunshine, an amazing couple, and the beach, so this is was basically my dream!

I can’t even believe I’m admitting this, but I never once went to Back Bay the entire time I lived in the Hampton Roads area! It’s SO beautiful there, I am totally kicking myself for not making it a priority to explore and do more out there! But, that’s okay, because weekend visits and engagement sessions there can still happen!

I cannot wait for Brandon & Rachel’s wedding at Delfosse Winery in Central Virginia next June! It’s going to be here before we know it!!

Nassau Valley Vineyard Wedding: Justin & Meghan

OH MY GOODNESS! This weekend was truly MAGIC!!! Justin & Meghan's wedding was just perfection- we had THE best time celebrating with them at the Nassau Valley Vineyard in Lewes, Delaware!  

I have truly loved getting to know Meghan over the past few months.  I always talk about forming friendships with my brides- and goodness the more I got to know Meghan, the more you just fall in love with her! Her & Justin are SO encouraging and loving towards each other- and hearing their vows they wrote to each other- promises to always put God first and the other one ahead of their own.  It was such an honor to be here to document these moments!  

Michael always makes fun of me for getting emotional during weddings- and man there were SO many touching and emotional moments at their wedding! I am just SO excited for them and their marriage!!

The girls were SO calm when I walked in- it was so peaceful and relaxing when I walked in- LOVED how supportive and encouraging her sweet bridesmaids were to her! Everything was hung up for me already, all the details set aside- everything was thought through! LOVE weddings like this!! 

Justin wrote Meghan a note, so Meg took a moment away from the crowd to sit and read his letter. I love these moments! So sweet and special!! 

LOOOOOOOVED their First Look Moments! They are seriously THE sweetest, happiest couple ever. I just love documenting these moments they will remember forever! 

RIGHT after the ceremony, we jumped in the limo and drove down to the beach for some photos!!! We caused quite the commotion with all the people on the beach, but ohh for these photos- it was SO worth it!! 

Then we headed back to the vineyard and got some ahhhhh-mazing photos in the grape vines! 

Meg did the best job decorating and putting her touches on everything! And I was so impressed, the guys got up early that morning and put all the table centerpieces together! What keepers there!!

Sunset Beach, NC Photographer: Emerson Noel

Emmie loves getting her picture taken, until it's time to be serious and actually get her photos taken! ;) haha. She always sees me editing brides and couples and tells me every single time that she wants to be a "wedding girl." 

SO I loved getting her in front of my camera and making her feel a little special! She loves to make goofy faces and can't wait to look at them in the camera right after she takes them.  I love this age (and hate it at the same time! haha!!) 

While we were on vacation at Sunset Beach, NC, we headed out and got some photos to document her goofy self at three and a half! 

I never want to forget this fun fun age! She never stops making me laugh!! <3 

Sunset Beach, North Carolina: Our Vacation (part 2!)

I'm back sharing photos from the 2nd half of our vacation, where we had some friends join us out at Sunset Beach, NC! We had so much fun- the girls went down to Myrtle Beach to shop at the outlets for a day, and then guys went off golfing- and we spent lots of time out at the beach! The kids had a blast- Emmie has been asking me to go back every day since we've returned!

Sunset Beach Photographer: Chloe turns ONE!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHLOE!!! 

I cannot believe Chloe is already ONE! I know, it sounds cliche, but time really does fly! My sweet friend Audrey had Chloe last year when we were on vacation in Sunset Beach- it killed me to not be there for her birth and visit them- but you better believe the day we were back in town I was over there snuggling that sweet girl!! 

This year, our friends joined us on the 2nd half of our family vacation and I was so excited to shoot Chloe's photos for her first birthday! We headed down to the beautiful oceanfront at Sunset Beach and got some amazing shots! There was a storm blowing in and the skies were stunning! Plus Chloe is THE happiest baby with the biggest smile! Seriously makes my job SO easy!!
