There’s nothing like the Surf City beaches. Topsail Island Beach Family Photos are some of my favorite, and we try to always end them with a dance party!

Hurricane Matthew not only impacted so many along it’s path, all of whom my love and thoughts are with, but it also but quite a damper on countless weddings up and down the east coast. On a Wednesday afternoon I got a little message, a couple, who I would later come to learn are seriously […]

This session was such a blessing. These two were young sweethearts who rekindled their love on the streets of VCU, so where better to explore and capture their bliss than Downtown Richmond, VCU and The Islands by Tredegar. The Light was golden, the giggles were genuine and the wind was welcome… (sort of!)   I […]

For photographers, and creatives of all breeds… sharing your work with your peers to be judged, admired, critiqued and enjoyed can be a nerve-racking step in your growth.
