Brian & Crystal: Lynchburg, VA Engagement Session

I think it’s safe to safe, it’s officially Fall, and while I always love summer, the cooler weather and engagement session season is welcome this year! Brain & Crystal are getting married at Atkinson Farm in Danville, Virginia this upcoming April, and I am so excited for it! These two are so sweet, and I cannot wait to celebrate with them! These two have known each other for pretty much their entire lives, and have been dating since their senior year in high school! So, you can say this wedding is a long time coming, which always means extra celebration!

We had a blast at their engagement session on the most perfect Fall evening- the weather was gorgeous, Sweet Briar College is always a favorite!

Ross & Shelley: A Trivium Estate Wedding in Goode, Virginia

Shelley is one of those brides that I wish I could clone! She's so sweet & laid back, absolutely gorgeous and cannot take a bad picture! Walking into the bridal suite that morning, her and her friends were getting ready together, laughing and so joyful for their friends! There wasn't any tension or nervousness in the room, at all! Even as she stepped into her elegant gown and the clouds started rolling in, she took it in stride and made the call to move the ceremony to the backup plan. One of the great things about The Trivium Estate is that their ballroom is so beautiful, even with having to move to an indoor ceremony, you're getting a gorgeous setting! 

After the ceremony, we grabbed some clear umbrellas and headed outside. Luckily, the rain ended up stopping and we laughed and enjoyed our portrait time together. After dinner, we ducked quickly outside for a few minutes and were greeted with a gorgeous sunset overlooking the Peaks of Otter Mountains.

Albuquerque, New Mexico Family and Lifestyle Photographer || Breighton's Newborn Session

Writing this, sharing these images is a complete honor and I still can't believe everything worked out for me to make it to Albuquerque to visit my Aunt & cousin Shelby just a few short days after sweet Breighton was born! I haven't been able to visit them since I was in middle school! I got tons and tons of squishy snuggles in and even got to take some precious photos of Breighton, Shelby and Corey! 

Shelby is such an inspiring Mom. She's going to school, working, and taking care of her little guy all at the same time! I loved seeing how comfortable she is as a Mom, and just how much she loves her sweet little guy! I was super tempted to bring him home with me, but instead I just insisted that they make it out to Lynchburg to visit soon!
