We know first hand that weddings really do bring people together. From all over the country… and in this case, all over the world! Before we headed out to photograph Rochele and Jon‘s beautiful wedding, we got to hang out with the Mancini family. Kim is Rochele’s aunt and was desperate for a family photo […]

Downtown Staunton will always hold a special place in my heart. It was here that I went to school, formed lifelong friendships, and grew as an older teen. So when Karyl and Garrett said they wanted to go for an adventure around town for their engagement session, our hearts were so full! We started in […]

And so it was a gift when Lauren of Lauren Rogers Photography invited me to tag along […]
