I've
always been
storyteller.

But I never set out to be a photographer. I was (and still am!) going to be a writer. And then as I worked toward that writing goal, someone put a camera in my hand and asked me to try telling stories with something besides words. So with an English nerd's love for character and tone, a romantic's love for poignant beauty, and a realist's love for imperfection, I dove in.

I've
always been a
story-teller.

That was back in 2010.

Since that time, photography has changed much of my life. It's brought me some of my dearest friends. It's reshaped the way my husband Danny and I view serving others. It has even literally taken me around the world. One thing that hasn't changed: my soul-stirring desire to tell stories that feel so real you're sure you knew them before you heard them. Or saw them. It's my privilege to tell those stories for my clients, and for the generations of their families still to come.

The day began with the hotel suite absolutely abuzz with excitement, and two kids playing cars and keep the mood light. Just the way it should be on every wedding day. Sarah and Matt put together a celebration filled with their favorite things (football, anyone?) and their favorite people. Emotional toasts, a boisterous reception, a […]

They met in Colorado, as students at the Air Force Academy. They got engaged in Texas, with both sets of parents as witnesses, as they explored San Antonio in the heart of the summer. And then they got married in Florida on an unseasonably balmy winter day, just a few minutes’ drive from the home […]

Smiles. A few tears. A gorgeous sunset. A cake cut with her father’s sword. Kids taking over the dance floor. It all added up to make yesterday a very wonderful day! Congratulations to Sarah and Matt! Have an amazing time in the Dominican Republic, you two! ~ Laura + Danny

They wanted a wedding that would reflect them — their love of God, their love of family, and their antique-china-set-buying, estate-sale-browsing love of all things vintage. With their Leu Gardens wedding earlier this month, Amy and Chris absolutely succeeded. There was so much happiness, including plenty of tears that spilled onto wide smiles, and so much […]

As weddings go, this one is best summed up as “joyful.” And “simply beautiful.” And also “as laid back and fun as the two people who got married.” Kristin and Billy’s wedding day at The Estate on the Halifax – Tavern & Chapel In the Garden absolutely overflowed with love and happiness, and happy, loving […]

Amy walked out of the bride’s room holding the ruffled skirt of her wedding gown — the gown her mother had handmade — with the biggest smile on her face. “Let’s go get married!” she cheered. And after the ceremony had ended and she walked back up the aisle, arm in arm, with Chris, and […]
