Doing some work on the blog layout... thanks for your patience!

Sneak Peak... Cara's Bridal Portraits!

Oh MY!!! I can't even contain my excitement about my sister's upcoming wedding! In just over a week, she will be Mrs. Timothy Wicks! This past Monday my wonderful friend Lisette let me tag along and take photos for my sister's bridal portraits. Since she is not yet married... and has to save that first look for the wedding day... this photo is unfortunately all you're gonna' get until after January 3! However, believe me.... it will be one post you don't want to miss!!! I have NEVER seen a more stunning bride!

MUCH belated Thanksgiving photos!

Well, I am actually completely aware that we're only days away from Christmas... but FINALLY here are some photos from our wonderful Thanksgiving day with my family in Wise, VA. I'm sorry it has taken me soooo long to get these photos posted, but I don't have internet at home and I have been CRAZY busy the past few weeks. Anyway, hope you enjoy the photos... however late they may be!

Irwin Family Christmas Portraits

The Irwins have become great friends of ours since moving here to Harrisonburg, so I was very excited to photograph them for their Christmas portraits. Here are some of their photos.

Christmas is Almost here!--- Irwin's Portrait preview!


Hey everyone! I am so excited that Christmas is almost here! Today we awoke to a lovely snow dusting outside. And we are having our Christmas musical at church today! The choir sounds so great! I just really feel extra excited about Christmas this year... don't know why, but I do. Anyway, to help me get in the Christmas spirit, I took some Christmas portraits for the Irwin family last week. Here's just one little preview photo of their little "J" that I thought was cute! And I haven't forgotten about Thanksgiving.... I hope everyone had a great one. I hope to post a few photos soon from our fun Thanksgiving! Happy Holidays All!!!
