Anna and Greg are such wonderful friends of mine and it’s been such a joy watching little Camden grow up. This family is one of the main reasons of why I am here today doing what I’m doing. I owe a lot to Anna and am so thankful for her trust and faith in me from the very beginning. They have such a beautiful family and it truly is an honor to photograph them each and every time. I’m already looking forward to the next session we do together. Until then, enjoy these from their session at Maymont Park.

I’ve known the Hicks family for years.. long before they got married and had Jackson. And since we’ve reconnected in the past couple years, it’s been such a joy getting to know them all over again, but as family this time. And on top of all that, Breanne is pregnant again! She’s looking just as gorgeous as ever and little Jackson is super anxious to be a big brother. Justin and Breanne, your family is simply beautiful and I can’t wait to meet your newest addition in October.

The above photo is probably one of my favorites. Doesn’t that smile just make your heart skip a beat?

Just a little sneak peek into the bundle of cuteness that I had the honor of photographing this past weekend at Maymont Park. Jackson is incredibly photogenic and his blonde hair, blue eyes and bright smile will just melt your heart time and time again. Later this week, I’ll post more photos of the Hicks Family.. so stay tuned!

I have photographed little Camden since the beginning… and boy is he growing up quickly! I borrowed this wagon from some friends of mine and I am just loving how it turned out. I’m thinking my next prop purchase will be a Radio Flyer. Check back later this week for more of the McChesney Family…

A few months ago, a friend told me about a site called FreeCrappyPortraits.com – it’s where you email them any picture(s) you want to be drawn by one of their terrible artists. And in fact, all their artists really aren’t all that crappy, in fact some of them are quite good. They all have normal jobs with normal lives.. they just spend a bit of their free time drawing crappy portraits of random people from all over the world. So, anyways, in the email, you write a little blurb about yourself – the more interesting/creative/outlandish/detailed the description is, the more likely it will be chosen to get drawn. After you send everything off to freecrappyportraits@gmail.com you wait… and you wait… and then you wait some more.

I had completely forgotten about the whole thing until the other day when I glanced in my inbox and saw.. (drumroll please….) my free crappy portrait! You may be wandering why I’m even sharing this and I frankly there is no real reason. Just because it’s fun and it’s a crappy Monday and we could all use a laugh.

So.. without further adieu..
