sweet love | Fredericksburg Wedding Photographer

Samantha contacted me last fall to schedule an engagement session and between the busy fall portrait season and the holidays, we were unable to make it happen during that time. Fortunately, she contacted me again a few weeks ago to try again to schedule a session and this time we were able to do it! Samantha and Scott were wonderful models - easy going and relaxed in front of the camera. Beautiful, relaxed and happy subjects always make great portraits, and I am happy to report that I absolutely LOVE the way their session came out. They brought their baby girl, Daisy, along and she couldn't have been better behaved. I was continually impressed by her eagerness to please and obey (especially considering I'm in the process of trying to train my own dogs and it is soooo not easy!) and also how she would just sit off to the side and wait patiently while I took photos of Samantha and Scott alone! I loved having her around and hope to get to hang out with her again sometime in the future!

Without further ado...


I wish you all the best as you get married in Illinois later this year!
