Military Family Photography
Military Family Photography
Contact us today to photograph your military family portraits!
Military family photography is an important event in every military family’s life. Photographing military families is something that we are proud to be a part of.
Being in the military at one time in my life I realize how important military family photography is. Some various times that a military family will have us photograph their family portraits is before deployment, after deployment and when making a new rank.
Another great opportunity for military family photography is at military homecomings. At that time families are gathered together for this huge patriotic celebration.
Meet the Critides family. They came to us to have their military family portraits taken on the cusp of Carl making rank and prepping for a long deployment.
We love when the family prepares for their portrait session by wearing their dress uniform and also bring a secondary outfit.
We began their photography session at our studio. We love using our giant American flag as a backdrop for our military family photography. If you would like to view our studio, you can view it here.
Military portraits. Then we moved on to creating a unique family portrait by keeping the sailor front and center with the family holding him closely. Using the white background keeps the image simple and bold at the same time.
Military family photography. After photographing in the studio, we traveled to the beach for a few beach portraits at sunset. Sunset is the best time to photograph at the beach because of the warm soft light.

Newborn Portraits | Ashton
Newborn Portraits in Our Norfolk Studio
Meet sweet Ashton. How can you not adore newborn portraits? Oh, how I wish we had come into the photography industry when our children were babies. To be able to capture moments like these are priceless. Newborn portraits take patience and time. The atmosphere needs to be just right for these little guys. A little white noise, a little heater, lots of soft things like blankets, wraps and hats and lots of love make the photo session perfectly peaceful.
Sweet baby Ashton was the model client. With the right balance of the atmosphere and some rocking, it was time to photograph him. We have photographed his family for years and enjoyed seeing this new addition.
Newborn Portrait Session: Baby Ashten Do you see his sister? We photographed her mommy and daddy their entire pregnancy and then photographed her at just 5 days old! I feel like I’m an important part of my clients lives and that’s a wonderful compliment!
We love photographing families! Whether it’s in our Norfolk studio, on the beautiful sands of Virginia Beach, or in your home, we’d love to serve you. Contact us to schedule your photo session today.

Family photography sessions are always fun and rewarding. Being in such a beautiful area, as Norfolk, Virginia is such a picturesque setting for any outdoor portrait sessions.
With a great mix of beaches, beautiful landscapes and history, it really is second to none.
Heading out to the park with any couple and their dog is always an exciting adventure. People enjoy bringing their pets along to their session because they are a part of their family! Not only do with love that, we encourage it! Photographing pets can be challenging, but in this case, it was a breeze. See more of our pet portfolio here.
Locations like the Pagoda Gardens in Norfolk is just perfect. With the beautiful landscaping and being positioned on the River, you can’t go wrong. Having your portraits done in the fall is always stunning with the changing of the colors of the leaves.Our favorite part of portraits at the Pagoda Gardens is the river view. Photographing at sunset always brings great portraits. Lighting can be tricky at sunset, however, with the right lighting your sunset photography will be a success every time!

Trash the Dress – Mario & Mario’s Aftershoot – Portrait Photographer
If you would like to couple’s session or a Trash the Dress Session, contact us!
Virginia Beach couples photographer Trash the Dress
Who wants to trash their dress? Well that may sound shocking at first, but when you consider the images that will get from the session, you may reconsider.
Trash the dress is a trend that is happening that gives brides an excuse to wear their wedding gowns for a second time. The result is amazing wedding photos. On a wedding day we can’t have a bride in urban settings in the ocean, however we can for this session.
It is a new wedding style photography session that creates a contrasting image. An elegant bride in the city streets, abandoned buildings or in the water. This contrasting image is generally breathtaking and captures everyone’s eye.
Mario and Meredith did their Trash the Dress session on their one year anniversary.

Downtown couples photography 
Couples photographer We started their portrait session in downtown. We wanted to incorporate the texture of the old brick and texture of our historic area.
Having the lightrail in downtown, we decided to include it in a photograph. By using the technique of dragging the shutter we were able to create a unique picture. By using this technique we are able to blur the moving object while freezing the bride and groom in the frame.
Unique wedding photography Beach Trash the Dress Pictures
At sunset we headed to the beach to finish our session. We always shoot our beach portraits at sunset allowing us to have great light. We knew that this would definitely be the last stop for photos because Meredith wanted to get in the ocean in her wedding gown.
Before getting in the water we like to utilize the other areas of the beach. Using the sand dunes and the jettys we get a variety of looks in a small area.

Meet sweet Noelle. Today she had a special blue and white dress for her special 6 month portraits. With babies we have to work quickly since their attention span is very short. We have have to have our sets prepared and ready to go when our clients walk in.
We started photographing Noelle in the studio. We were able to capture some special portraits for this half year birthday girl.
Having our studio is great when photographing children. For Noelle we did her newborn and three month portraits in our studio. For her 6 month portraits we wanted to mix it up a bit.
The weather was beautiful so we were able to take Noelle to the outdoor areas of our studio. We were able to capture this precious photo of her in the grass.
Virginia Beach unique baby photography The last picture that we captured was with her mom and dad. Though Noelle couldn’t walk yet, we still wanted to try a walking picture. We love to create this type of photo at all of our 6 month old portrait session. It creates such a cute portrait. We pose the child between mom and dad. Though they can’t walk, with the support of mom and dad it appears she is walking. It is also great to end a portrait session with because the child thinks it’s fun!
