Brent and Kayla | Lynchburg Engagement Photographer

Brent and Kayla are such a sweet couple... a quiet, classy duo who fit in perfectly with the classic feel of Downtown Lynchburg. A graphic design major and a criminal justice major found chemistry in a speech class. Hah - how's that for an overuse of college terms? :) "The teacher's pet," he called her. And her bashful response made it clear why he fell for her sweet spirit. I so enjoyed last Friday morning with these two as we explored downtown for their engagement session. The day was beautiful and Kayla and Brent were up for anything. The chemistry between them is ALL over these pictures, they made my job so easy! These are some of my favorite engagement pictures I've ever taken.

Brent and Kayla, I am so happy for you guys! I am looking forward to catching a glimpse of your beautiful Maine wedding next spring and hearing about the after-college job hunting adventures! (Psst, Kayla is currently interning with clutch this semester. Be sure to check out the next issue to see her gorgeous design work!)

10 Months Old | Lynchburg Baby Photographer

Sunday turned 10 months old yesterday. Gosh. I really just want to bottle up everything about right now and keep it this way FOREVER. But... ahh... life. Time just keeps on ticking. (sigh) I pulled the camera out a couple of times yesterday in an attempt to simply capture her life at 10 months old. No clean faces (read: runny nose) or cute outfits... just life as it is. As I was culling through the images to pick a few favorites for her 10 month letter, I decided I couldn't wait to show some of these to you (and her dad who is still out of town). Her expressions and emotions kill me. I love her so much and sometimes I feel like I want her SO CLOSE to me that I could eat her so she would be back inside of me. I sound like such a freak but I know you mamas out there totally know what I am saying!!

Look at this sweet baby!

(breakfast time!)

(pulling herself to standing on the side of the couch) (we got TV again, folks... here she is LOVING it) (such a cutie!)

Love her SO much!!

The Cheatham Family | Lynchburg Family Photographer

My friend Heather is a fabulous wedding photographer. I had a great time shooting her family portraits - her boys totally know how to work the camera! :) Plus her excellent photography knowledge meant that she was more than willing to meet for a sunrise session. And we all know how much I love sunrise sessions. The lighting in these pictures makes me so giddy. Heather, I hope you love your family portraits as much as I do!
