Visiting the memorials in Washington D.C. is always a treat and even more so when two wonderful people get to join you. I so loved capturing these moments for Kate and Hayes to remember their engagement by! We spent the evening walking around the Lincoln Memorial and a few other peaceful spots in the city they call home all while catching the sun as it continued setting below the sky…

Engaged at the Memorials: Kate & Hayes

I somehow never really made it to SoCal when I lived in the Sacramento area a few years ago, and when the opportunity came up to travel there in March of 2020, I said yes in an instant. On my first day in San Diego, I met up with one of my past couples at […]

Sunset Session at La Jolla Beach

On a day that felt more like a summer one than fall (it was probably nearing 75 degrees in late November!) I met up with Zoe, Hunter, and their adorable pups for a session at Adkins Arboretum, one of my favorite nature spots on the Eastern Shore. They are planning to get married later this […]

Adkins Arboretum Fall Engagement Session

It’s still hard to believe we have a semi normal summer at all, yet through the hard times comes a light, and I’m so happy so many of us can be back doing the things we love! Samantha and Billy’s engagement session was the best way to get back to work, and spending the evening […]

Among the Flowers at Butterbee Farm

You always get excited when a family member get’s engaged, and when they ask you to photograph their wedding, it is so hard to say no, especially when they have been one of your biggest supporters from the beginning of your business journey. That’s why when Lindsay and Scott told me they had to have […]

Jane Austen Inspiration at Liriodendron

May 25, 2018

I envision a lot of what life was like hundreds of years ago. It isn’t a time any of us can go back to, but is one that we can recreate and visit for a short time. I’m glad I’m not the only dreamer out there who is a lover of the old world, who is as much enamored as I am over the architecture, designs, and life that once used to be. Fortunately, there is still magic out there, and if you can’t seem to find it, you can always create it.

Jane Austen was always such a heroine to me – creating works that were ahead of her time, challenging herself with her writing and developing timeless characters that we still resonate with today. Pride and Prejudice will always be one of my favorites, both book and film, and recreating this in an editorial was one of my most favorite challenges.
