where my heart longs to be | virginia family photographer

I have a special place in my heart for photographing families. My goal is to always capture that interaction… every family has a special language that belongs only to them.

The wonderful thing about Courtney and Sky is that they’ve not only developed that bond with their daughter but that they never forgot the language that exists just between them. That romantic, take-your-breath-away feeling is still there for them -

and only makes them a stronger family.

pure honey summer sessions

How lucky am I to receive so many messages requesting boudoir marathons? These requests usually come from the same incredible women who book family sessions and weddings with me. They want a chance to feel beautiful on their own and to have keepsake images for themselves or significant others… and of course to get in that aluminum washtub full of suds!  While I do love hosting boudoir marathons, I can’t really seem to find a day this summer to have them… and it makes me sad when I pick a day and so many of you can’t make it. Let’s face it – summer is a BUSY time!  So here’s what I’m doing…

Kansas Workshop

It isn’t often that I leave home -and even less often that I travel quite so far but for months Carrie Towns and I had been talking about a visit Kansas to teach a workshop and it was hard to say no.

After all… if people wanted me to travel all that way just to teach a workshop, I was flattered enough to say yes.

This Virginia girl wasn’t accustomed to all the wide open space. Our lush, dense hardwoods don’t give these views…

 

Never in my life have I met such kind, warm-hearted people.

Girls were there from all corners of Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas and we all felt welcomed… just as if we had lived in Colby our entire lives.

The workshop was incredible. Everyone was so eager to learn and full of questions that the classes zipped by.

 

I think Kansas gave me my youngest workshopper yet… when Miss A. is famous, I’ll be shouting from the rooftops that I knew her way back when!

I didn’t even have to tell these girls that photographers have dirty knees – they knew.

(look at all that yummy glass!)

A big, BIG thank you to Kansas and all my workshop girls for an AMAZING time that I won’t ever forget.

If you missed Kansas, you can always travel to Virginia… I have a few spots (just a few!) left for 2013.I would love to meet you!

It was soooo wonderful to see you again and hang out in good ole Nor’west Kansas. I will have to say that I think Sunday was the best of all; sitting on the front porch after a day at the museum, sitting cold “beverages” and doing nothing!!!
