Because of our crazy schedules I don’t get to see my sister and niece as often as I like. We got to spend some quality time together yesterday, and I snapped a few shots of Lainey. How adorable is she? She knows it all too well by now, and hams it up for the camera. Thought I would try out a few new processing techniques while I was at it. This weekend is another busy one. I’ll be heading to Glen Gardens in Hartwood, VA on Saturday for Gail and Tucker’s wedding and then back to DC on Sunday for Sarah and Walter’s wedding. Can’t wait!
Hey King George, I think you know this guy! Bryan is another incredibly busy senior. He’s a member of the golf team, the drummer for the band Ancient and the Young, he’s in the school band and the drumline. He’s also a member of the drama department and gives an outstanding performance in the current production of Big River! The play is running all this weekend, so please, go see it! Bryan also loves to snowboard and play paintball…he’s got a killer field in his back yard, which is where we did some of his senior shoot.
Bryan’s shoot was a lot of fun. The paintball field made for an awesome background, and I think we really got to the heart of Bryan’s fun personality, which is what senior portraits are all about…you! We had a field day shooting Bryan next to his GTO, with his drumset, his snowboard and finally out at Cameron Hills Golf Course. As of today, Bryan should be toting his new rep cards, so ask him for one! If Bryan refers you for senior portraits, be sure and let us know! And don’t forget to get out to the production of Big River this weekend. Bryan and Carrie and the rest of the cast and crew have done an incredible job with this powerful musical. If you get a chance, check out the production board, we shot all the cast and crews’ headshots and they look great!
A few weeks ago I had the distinct pleasure of documenting Erik and Veronique’s wedding and rehearsal dinner at the gorgeous Mt. Welby in Linden, VA. Erik and Veronique’s families came from as far away as Washington, D.C., California, France and Germany, just to name a few. Throughout the event, the remark was made by a number of guests that Mt. Welby had all the charm and appeal of a quaint farmhouse in the French countryside, which made it the perfect venue to welcome Erik and Veronique’s diverse family!
Erik and Veronique’s wedding was beautiful, unique and thoughtful. They played wiffle ball and bocce ball with the kids, cooked out on Friday night, had the kids arrange beautiful and aromatic wildflower boquets, and started the wedding morning off with Mimosas! They served both French Champagne and wine from a local winery right there in Linden, Va. The ceremony itself was given in French and translated into English in the programs. The reception was casual and intimate, catered by the Marriott Ranch (the original), which is right around the corner from Mt. Welby. And though the weather tried to dampen our spirits early in the morning, by the time the afternoon rolled around we were out enjoying the gorgeous view while sneaking in one last game of wiffle ball.
What can I say about Carrie other than that she rocks?! We had an awesome shoot with Carrie at her lovely home in King George. Some of you King George High School students may know Carrie…she does a few things at the school. For example, Carrie is class president, an editor of the yearbook, she swims, plays field hockey, is a member of the theater department, and nearest and dearest to my heart….she is an amateur photographer! And she’s a Nikon shooter!
Carrie’s photos turned out to be amazing! She was an excellent model and I for one can’t wait for her to show them around! Starting some time early next week Carrie will be toting her fresh new rep cards! Ask her for her John Hancock on one, because she’s going places! If Carrie refers you for senior portraits, please make sure you let us know! If you’re dragging your feet to book your senior portraits, what are you waiting for?! Space is limited, and the hardest time of year to schedule your senior session is during August, September and October. We’ve been at the school lately shooting promo shots for the production of Big River. We’ll be back again next week to shoot some production stills, and then again at the performance. If you see us, say hi!

Wow! Lisa and I just got back from the 23rd Annual King George Variety Show, and I couldn’t wait to post some of the images from the night! As residents of King George, it was really great to see the community come together (the place was packed) for this event. The most impressive part of the night was how talented the students of King George High School are. Congratulations to all the students who performed, you were awesome!
