Life Long Memories Photography - High School Senior Photographer - Blue Eyed Beauty

This gorgeous high school senior was so much fun to photograph this past weekend.  Her and her mom both were so sweet and helpful holding the reflector and moving things around their amazing family property.  It's so exciting to show up at a completely different location and find so many great spots to work with.  So many favorites, but here a few of my top picks.  Have a great night everyone!

Life Long Memories Photography - Senior Photographer in Fredericksburg, Va - Trash the Prom Dress!

All the rage with the teenagers and brides these days.  You can choose to "trash" the actual dress you wore, or one that you find at a thrift store, just for fun.  It's all about taking the fancy/formal outfit and being photographed doing things that you would never normally do in it.  Urban settings, in the water, dirt everywhere type stuff.  Here's a recent session I did with my daughter, a senior at Massaponax High this year. This has been in the works for months, so it was fun to finally get a chance to bring it all together.  We had a blast, in spite of the crazy mosquitoes.  Her poor back and arms were covered for days afterwards.  Oh the things we'll do to get "the shot!" :-)  Thanks for looking.

Life Long Memories Photography - Children's Photographer in Fredericskburg, Va - Take Me out to the BallGame...

I hope you don't mind me sharing some recent sessions I've done with my own children.  I bought this adorable skirt from "courtneycourtney" and just knew I had to do something cool with it. It reminded me of baseball and sports and the idea evolved from there.  I let my 2 older kids out of this session, much to their relief!  My 3 youngest enjoyed dressing up and getting to eat all the yummy "props".  Had so much fun with this, I'd love to begin working with clients to create little custom sessions.  If you're interested, send me an e-mail and we can brainstorm.  Half the fun is finding the stuff to include in the session.  I plan to put together a coffee table album from this session, as there are way too many favorites.  Enjoy!

Life Long Memories Photography- Children's Photographer - In the Wildflowers

I can't get enough of the gorgeous wildflowers that grow on the side of the road throughout the year.  I find myself wanting to plant a field of identical flowers every time I see a new crop of them...the red, purple, yellows...just beautiful!  Well this year I did it...found a spot a little out of the way to throw Olivia into.  She's my little muse as you know, and in-between the bee's and bugs flying throughout them, she worked her magic on me.  Thanks for peeking!
