When Michelle reached out to me to shoot her maternity session, she mentioned she was a photographer herself. I was honored to have been her choice of a maternity photographer! Michelle and her family traveled from Roanoke for their session. I love the jewel tones she selected for their fall session - they were perfect! Here are a few of my favorite pictures from our time together!

When Katie reached out to me last summer for an outdoor maternity session, she mentioned that she lived in the Northern Virginia area. I found out soon after her inquiry that she lived in Alexandria and wanted to travel to meet me for her session! What an honor! We decided to meet in Charlottesville at this whimsical field and I had a lovely time capturing her beautiful family (and their first baby - Benny!) during this short and sweet season of life.

I have loved getting to know this family over the years. I first photographed them when their oldest was about 15 months old... and now she is a big sister! I remember being amazed that she was already identifying her colors at such a young age! That should have been a sign to their brain power. :) This family is the brains behind One Way Out, a local puzzle / escape room business. We LOVE to go when my genius dad and brother come to visit. Every time One Way Out opens a new room, we start coordinating another trip for my extended family to come into town!

It could be the beautiful model, the all-white room, or the understated dress she is wearing... or maybe it was simply the enthusiasm in the air that surrounded this whole experience... but this maternity session photographed at The Fount Workshop is, hands down, one of my favorites I have ever photographed. Watching Abany Bauer style this session left me so inspired and gave me more tools to use when approaching my own work, which I've already started to use.
