We faced an overcast SUPER windy day with the Tilghman's when I met them for their family portraits on their farm in Pungo. It didnt matter where you stood or hid from the wind... it always found us! I do have to say at the end of the session we did have a pretty back drop and the wind may have died down a tad for us! All in all I am glad we got some good ones out of this mini Tornado!
The day threatened rain....yet not even Mother Nature could put a damper on Jay and Stephanie's ig day! This is, after all, no ordinary love. A close friend decided they were meant to be, and yes, she was in the wedding! Fast forward a bit to the end of a zip line, where Jay waited for the love of his life on bended knee. What girl could say no while zipping into the arms of a handsome man with a RING?!? After saying their vows at St. John's United Methodist Church in Norfolk, Virginia, the happy couple headed to the oceanfront in Virginia Beach to celebrate with family and friends. Mother Nature, being the hopeless romantic that she is, held off the rain for this sweet bride and groom. The navy blue and light pinks against the backdrop of the ocean and dramatic sky made for some pretty spectacular photographs. The bride looked truly ethereal in her tiered strapless white gown. The Attic, upstairs, inside Waterman's made for an uniquely intimate and elegant setting. They danced the night away while sipping on Waterman's famous Orange Crushes beneath giant wooden beams with windows looking out onto sweeping ocean views. It was a perfect end to a perfect day!

There is so much about this newborn session that I love. First thing is that Alice was born on Easter of this year. Her mom wanted to incorporate bunny ears which is perfect. Then mom and dad (both being book lovers) came up with the idea of having Alice laying on top of a pile of their favorite books "tuckered" from reading. BUT WAIT! It gets better! They even located books that had all of Alice's names in them... check out the picture above where it says Alice Rose Owen! So creative. I love when parents have their own inspiration for their newborn shoot.
Alice's nursery consists of owls and fun bright colors. We also incorporated her sweet little newborn bonnet that was hand knitted and given to her at the hospital. Lastly Theresa wanted to incorporate her "push present" which is a gorgeous ring with Alice's birthstone, which will one day be her very own ring.
This sweet Peach came down to visit with her momma for Easter! Kenley is not quite 1 yet but I wanted to snap some photos just encase I didn't see her for her first birthday this year. She has grown so much and has the best personality just like her momma. I honestly feel like she resembles a little bit of Kate Hudson... Boy is she the cutest or what?!!!
When you are about to turn 3 and are in love with Disney Princess's, well what better way to document this stage in life by having a princess dress up party! Cinderella, Ana, Elsa Ariel and Belle all made the cut for this little party!
