Weddings are always fun to be a part of.  To be with a family to document and important day in history is an honor.  Kim and Tarek’s wedding day was nothing less then that.  The wedding day was flawless under the direction of Michelle Kilgore of Weddings by Michelle.  It was a dream team kind of day with make up by Kim Wadsworth, flowers from Daevids, lighting by Blue Steel Lighting Design, a vintage Rolls Royce by Royal Coach, and a wedding cake by Patti Cakes.  With a team like this you couldn’t go wrong! Have a look into Kim and Tarek’s magical wedding day!

Photovision | Senior Portrait Artists | Virginia Wedding Photographers

Photovision, eduction and solutions for professional photographers, is a great resource for all photographers.  When we first started our photography business, we too purchased a Photovision dvd to learn more about weddings.  Teachings from that Photovision dvd included Michele Celentano and Parker Pfister who helped us shape the way the we shoot our weddings today.  We actually re-watched the dvds numerous times to learn all that we could.  Having a source like Photovision proved to be priceless. Just a few years later, we are please to announce that we will be a part of Photovision 2013.  They will be following us on a wedding and a senior boy and senior girl session.  We are hoping that being a part of this educational series will help others they way that Photovision helped us.

Senior Portraits | Hannah | Virginia Senior Portraits

Senior portraits are so much fun to capture.  Senior photography has risen to a different level.  Senior portraits for us are done in our studio, in our downtown urban area and in Hannah’s case at the beach.  Beach portraits are very popular since we live in a city surrounded by water.  With Hannah she not only choose the beach, but we photographed her at sunset and did a Trash the Dress session with her as well.

Family Portraits | Virginia Family Portrait Photographer

Family portraits are something that we like to do annually for our families.  Our families change so much over a year that we feel like documenting them through pictures is important.  We love the opportunity to do on location outdoor family sessions.  It is wonderful to capture the beautiful families as well as the beautiful surroundings.  For the Ortiz family it was just mom, dad and the kids.  It included grandma, grandpa, the aunts and of course the pets.  Photographing pets can be a challenge, but for Hurley and Max, they made it simple.
