Apples, hayrides, and wine....oh my! {Richmond Family Photographer}

Last weekend we packed up the kids and headed out to Charlottesville to Carter Mountain Orchard for some apple picking! We had never been there before, but really wanted to find a "pick your own" orchard and that was the closest one I could find. Man, was it worth that drive! It is absolutely gorgeous up there, and yes, it really is on top of a mountain! I wish we could have stayed for the sunset, I can only imagine how amazing it must look from there! Please excuse the random snap-shots that I am displaying below. They don't really qualify as "photography" in my book, simply family snap-shots, but I wanted to share them anyway. 

Yes, I am actually IN one of these photos.....a rare instance where I let Ewan use my camera! ;)

I highly recommend making the trip up to Carter Mountain for several reasons......first, it's good old fashion family fun! Second, they have VA wine!! (yes, I did put that second, can you blame me?!) They sell their own Carter Mountain wine as well as Prince Michel and others. And they do tastings all day long ;-). OK, moving on.....they also have pumpkins and a hayride, an amazing view, and apple products galore (think apple donuts, apple pie, apple butter, the works!) So, check 'em out! It's a great family outing! ;-)

P.S. Have you scheduled your Holiday mini session yet? Time spots are filling up....email or call me for more info. ;-)

Thanks for stopping by!

Holiday Season is Right Around the Corner! {Williamsburg Family photographer, Richmond Family Photographer, Midlothian Family Photographer}

Have you signed up for your Holiday mini session yet? I know, I know, it's WAY too early! It's barely even October......but....... 'tis the season! The season for getting your family photos taken! Cross off your 'to do' list. Get your Holiday cards, gifts for the grandparents, aunts, uncles and anyone else who loves you and your kiddies! You know they all want a gorgeous photo of you! Or at least your kids! ;-)
So, here's your chance.....very little commitment (just a 30 minute session.) And you don't even have a session fee! That's right, you read that correctly. In the spirit of the season, the session is FREE, but there is a catch...We ask that you bring a new, unwrapped toy for donation. One per child being photographed is even better! ;-)
So, here are some of the details.....
Dates:
Sunday, November 6th in Colonial Williamsburg
Sunday, November 13th in Richmond (exact location TBD)
(Williamsburg sessions are already filling up so contact me asap to make sure you get a spot!)

I have some ah-mazing cards this year (if I do say so myself!) Please check them out on my website under the 2011 Holiday Card Options Tab. Also, please keep in mind that I love to meet new people and the BEST compliment I can get is a referral from you! So, tell your friends! Send them my way! I'd <3 you forever! ;-)
And on a related note, if you have been following my blog for a while you know that we have recently moved to Midlothian, VA. If you know anyone in the Richmond/Midlothian area that are looking for a (fabulous) photographer, or just a buddy for playdates.....I'm your girl! :)

Oh, and don't forget to "like" my facebook page. Thanks for stopping by! I will be posting some more fun fall photos soon along with some other exciting news!!

Could This Family Be ANY More Gorgeous?! {Williamsburg/Richmond Family Photographer}

Seriously, could they? I had a great time in CW with this crew. They LOVE the climbing trees, and the ice cream.....YUMMM! ;-) Enjoy!

So, on a personal note.....we are finally in our new house!! Woohoo! Unfortunately, our first 2 weeks in the house brought us an earthquake and a hurricane. We lost power for 5 days and are FINALLY starting to feel a little more settled in. I will post some before and after house photos as soon as I get my act together and get everything looking like I want it too. ;-)

I still have some openings for sessions in September. Give me a call or send me an email to schedule. ;-) I am soooo looking forward to meeting some of my Richmond fans!! Thanks for stopping by!

Silly, Sweet, and So Much Fun!!! {Richmond Family Photographer}

Well, hello there! It's been a while.....but there has been A LOT going on!!! We made a trip out to Chicago to see my brothers (2 of them) and their families. So, while I was there I had a session with the fabulous Lund Family!! After we were postponed because of some crazy midwest weather, we finally got together at the Naperville Riverwalk and got some great shots (if I do say so myself ;-)) Here's a few of them....enjoy!

This last one is one of my all time favorite family shots..... <3

Thanks for stopping by!
