Sharon Elizabeth Shoot Out | Hampton Roads Wedding Photographer

Sharon Elizabeth is one of the photographers I've been following since I decided I wanted to make this a career (a good year before I was actually able to). Haven't seen her work? Check out her Facebook and Website. Her work is just amazing. A few of my fellow photog friends participated in Sharon's shoot out last spring. When I saw their pictures and Sharon's post about it I knew I just had to get in on the next one. So I emailed her and she told me to keep an eye out because she would be hosting another one in the fall. So I did. As soon as I saw her post for it I asked my bestie, Heather of Heather Papineau Photography, if she wanted to go with me. And so began a beautiful friendship ;)

Papineau Family | Hampton Roads Family Photographer

Gah! This family! I just love them so much!! Heather is one of my best friends and a fellow photographer so I was honored when she asked me to take her family pictures! Little Jack gave us a run for our money but I still managed to get a bunch of gorgeous shots of this gorgeous family!!

Jamane and Jesse | Virginia Beach Maternity Photographer

Jamane is simply glowing!! Her and Jesse are expecting their 3rd bundle of joy! She said to me "we're not a model couple". How wrong was she?! This was a dual session...you can see their family pictures HERE.

The Schroeder's | Virginia Beach Family Photographer

This family was so fun to photograph! We weren't sure how the little one was going to hold up but she surprised us all and was a trooper!! We had a dual session...family and maternity...you can see the maternity pictures HERE.

The Valenti's | Sandbridge Family Photographer

Mike and I basically grew up together...our dads have known each other since they were 2! I feel like I've known Amy for just as long! They came down this weekend to visit family and asked me to take family pictures of them and they freaking adorable daughter, Harper. (PS it's super cute when Amy calls her Harper Annie!!!) This morning was perfect!! We went to Sandbridge at sunrise and couldn't have asked for better weather! Love you guys!! Enjoy!

The Dahr's | Hampton Roads Family Photographer

Emily is such a good friend of mine! Her and her boys were my very first photo session when I decided I wanted to make a business out of Photography. That was last August! I've come such a long way since then! We've decided to make this family shoot an annual thing! We added someone else to the mix this year...Tim kept coming up with great pose ideas and he was able to get these 2 rowdy boys (whom I LOVE!!) to almost cooperate!! haha Emmy knows I love them!!! Maybe next August we'll be adding someone else to the mix?!
