When Megan reached out and mentioned she wanted her maternity photos at her house, this is not what I had pictured in my head. The rolling hills and mountain view’s made for the most photogenic location. This Snowy West Virginia Maternity Session was my first session of 2022 and was the perfect start to set the tone of the year. This glowing Momma is expecting not 1 but 2 babies in the next few months!!
When I was preparing for Megan and Adam’s maternity session, Megan mentioned I would most likely loose cell phone service when I headed towards Paw Paw, West Virginia. I won’t lie, it freaked me out! I studied Google Maps, wrote down directions and realized how long it’s been since I’ve had to do directions the “old fashioned way”. I was even going to print out a map until I realized it is 2022 and I don’t have a printer.
I found Megan and Adam’s home with no GPS and I was super proud of myself! When I arrived, I was greeted by their doggies was able to take a tour of their home to prepare for when their twins come in a few months. We then drove around their photogenic property in the snow and took photos around their land. They pointed out homes (which were all their family who live along the same road), their cows, and we managed not to get stuck in the snow!
Megan and Adam are expecting twin girls!! I am looking forward to heading their way again and capturing the sweetest lifestyle newborn photos of their growing family.
See a few of my favorite images of their snowy West Virginia maternity session below.
What do you do when the weather forecast teases rain on your wedding day, but the skies stay dry—right up until the ceremony? If you’re Daisy and Adam, you embrace the moment! As they walked down the aisle at their outdoor ceremony, the rain finally made an appearance. But as Adam so perfectly said during […]
Photographing the Usman Fall Morven Park Family Session again this year was such a treat! We met at the beautiful Morven Park on a stunning fall day in October, with Virginia’s leaves showing off their peak colors. The golden hues, vibrant reds, and deep oranges created the perfect backdrop for this fun and lively session. […]
There’s something so special about capturing a family on the brink of a new chapter. This sweet family of three is soon welcoming their second little girl, and I couldn’t be more excited for them! Ava, their spunky two-year-old, had the best time running around and playing during the session, and her joyful energy brought […]
One of the greatest joys of being a photographer is witnessing a family’s journey through life’s milestones. From capturing their engagement to celebrating their wedding day, welcoming their newborn, and now their family session, it’s an honor to document these cherished moments.

There’s nothing quite like a summer evening at Sea Isle City in New Jersey and the beach was the perfect place to document this special family session celebrating Jameson’s first birthday!

In September 2024, I had the joy of capturing a fall lifestyle newborn session in Winchester, Virginia—on the exact day that baby Callie was due!
