Heather: Christopher Newport Graduate
Heather and I have known each other since we were 12. Over the years she has grown into a very accomplished woman having graduated high school early, going on to earn her Bachelor's in Political Science with focuses in U.S. National Security and American Studies, followed by moving to her dream spot of Orlando. So grateful to be able to photograph such motivated clients!
MiKaila: Denver Arcade Portraits
Taking trips to Denver, Colorado has been one of my favorite for-me things to do over the years. Every time I go I work on networking with other local artists, models, and photographers. MiKaila and I were lucky enough to link up through a Facebook group. I was able to get in contact with an arcade/barcade in Denver that allowed us to use the location before official opening hours which to this day I am dying to do again.
Serene: It Smells Like Dirt Here
Serene and I have worked together many times and she is always a delight to have in front of the camera. We've photographed in stores, crowds, on the street, and yes even a cemetery. Photography was permitted at this cemetery in particular as long as no names of headstones were visible.
Maggie + Chris: 2 Pugs & A Cute Abode
Maggie and Chris were so much fun to photograph. In our phone conversation about what idea we were wanting to portray I loved their idea - they wanted to show their life as this specific time & moment. Married, cute house in East Nashville, successful careers, and two cute pugs.
Alabama in November
For Thanksgiving this past year I was lucky enough to have a friend offer to get me out of town instead of spending the holiday alone like I had assumed I would. Time was spent in Greenville, Montgomery, Fort Deposit, and Jackson Lake Island. Downtown Montgomery: One of the coolest little places I've visited is Jackson Lake Island. This location was used for filming Tim Burton's Big Fish, it was the site of the town of Spectre. $5 in a tiny envelope and a call to the owner ge
Marcus + Sam: Winter Gatlinburg Wedding
This one is near and dear to me. While I had never met Sam before, Marcus and I have been very good friends since we were 14. I had no idea what his wedding day would look like, but this fit him so well. It was a small close friends and family only wedding in the Smoky Mountains on a gorgeous December day. They were surrounded by those who cared for them the most and free of conflict and negativity. Well, minus Marcus locking his ring and keys inside his own car just before t
