Remember the maternity session here.

I love newborn sessions.  Capturing the first professional pictures of a life is an honor- they are pictures that will be looked at and treasured for years to come.  Miss R* slept like an angel and that cute hat she's wearing is from the hospital, i'm so glad they grabbed it to stick on her for a few shots!

She's gorgeous & I hope to capture more images as she grows!

Grandma made her do a turn to see the entire outfit..

During the ceremony, they shared their testimony.  I love the way Kathryn is admiring her husband-to-be here!
It seems everyone had a great time at the reception!

Kathryn & David.. I wish you all the happiness in the world!  Thank you for letting me be a part of your special day.

Their house is next to a cute little field and that's where our session began! Besides being their home and place of comfort, it was extra special to have the session there because they were celebrating the one year mark of closing on their very first home together.

I get to meet her on Tuesday and I could not be more excited.  Snuggly little newborns are soo precious!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures of this gorgeous lady & her husband from their maternity session:






]]>Jennifer | Trash the Dresshttp://megangarrison.squarespace.com/blog/2009/11/15/jennifer-trash-the-dress.htmlMegan Garrison2009-11-16T04:02:56ZJennifer and Brian fell in love when she was just 14.  Unlike many other “young love’s” that fade away after a time, theirs continued to blossom until they got married six years later.  After a few years Jennifer and Brian, like many couples, had a child, a son.  Then, this past March, Brian passed away in a tragic accident.  They had planned to renew their vows at their 10 year reunion and Jennifer had hoped to one day pass her beautiful gown on to a daughter, but now, as you can see, that would never be possible.   Jennifer wanted to do something fun in order to preserve her memories in her gown, instead of just letting it sit in the box.  This is when she contacted me and I am so excited to share these images with you.  

This session has touched me like none other before.  Last night I laid in bed not able to sleep because I was so excited and nervous to have this session.   I wanted it to be everything Jennifer wanted, and more.

Jennifer was absolutely gorgeous today, and each time someone said, “Congrats!” my heart broke because they did not know the real reason for the session, but she smiled and said “thank-you” each time.  She is an incredible woman who has endured an incredible loss.

Now, onto the reason for this post.  Sarah & Rich.  They had a beautiful October wedding.  This couple is so good looking and so much fun, I was very excited to shoot their wedding!  Sarah wanted to make sure every family member was there celebrating with her, even if they had already passed away- and she created the most beautiful bouquet including pictures in honor of her Grandfathers and Grandmother.

Here is a quick look into their fabulous day:
























Congrats Sarah & Rich!

This family was referred to me by one of my '10 seniors- Thanks Alex!  They are a sweet sweet family and have the cutest little girls!  This session was geared mainly towards their newest arrival, Miss A*, but also included some family and big sister shots as well!  I love Little Miss A*'s baby rolls.. so adorable! Every time I look at this session it brings a smile to my face!






 

]]>Autumn { Class of 2010http://megangarrison.squarespace.com/blog/2009/11/5/autumn-class-of-2010.htmlMegan Garrison2009-11-05T15:55:43ZI have said it before and I will say it again, Seniors are so much fun!  Autumn & I met up for a few hours going around a few places in my hometown.  When I left my small town of no stop lights for the city life in DC I vowed to never return.  I was "a southern girl with big city dreams" who planned on leaving the "southern girl" behind.  However, upon meeting my husband and moving outside of Richmond, VA-- I find myself back there quite often..whether it's for business or visiting my family-- each time I go there I wonder why I hated it for so many years.
