Catching up on some of my favorite clients and sessions definitely includes this handsome little boy!  What a special opportunity to capture a boy so full of life at home with his pet cows, a few balloons and toys, and especially his very favorite dog.  Every child his age has so much fun when they are in their own element being photographed naturally.  That’s when the perfect and sweet moments occur, watching them do the little things they’ll soon grow out of and you always want to remember.  I love these sessions so much!

There wasn’t a more perfect September day for Brittany and Justin’s wedding at Crimora Mine Retreat outside of Waynesboro, VA.  The amazing venue, perfect blue skies, mild temperatures and creative details were only the beginning.  Add in two beautiful people in love with great family and friends and you have the perfect storm of happiness for a wedding.  Brittany was so creative pulling together all otheir wedding day details.  She and Justin carefully created many of them on their own from Pinterest inspiration.  The cozy Indian Summer day had details of sunflowers weaved throughout.  The groom and groomsmen casual attire fit perfectly in.  And even though Brittany was in an elegant lace gown, she was still a cowgirl at heart with her boots underneath.  They have been two very special people to work with since their engagement session and I couldn’t be happier for them.

Every bride is an individual and unique personality.  Just like the uniqueness of their wedding day, they each come with ideas in mind about their bridal session and how they envision themselves.  Whether it is elegant, country, playful, bold, rustic, or classic they each portray themselves in a different light.  I love how different each bride is… it is a creative challenge I enjoy to bring out the best in their personality and put my touch on it, too.  I’m glad to blog the last brides from 2012.  See for yourself how unique your own bridal session can be with Visions by Heather!

There’s nothing brighter and bigger than bringing a firetruck to your engagement session.  What a fun accent!  It suited these two love birds just perfectly since fire fighting is a major part of his life.  I don’t think I could have custom ordered better skies than what we had the evening of this engagement session.  It was a perfectly clear summer evening which worked out to really show off the fiery red truck!  After leaving the firetruck and historical grounds behind, we were able to walk around a small section of the little town of Rice and it was just like going back in history.  This is what makes engagement sessions so important to your wedding experience… getting to know your photographer and taking them on a date with you!  It’s also a great opportunity to personalize a memorable portrait session.

It was a very special day this past July when Jennifer & Jeremy wed.  Their day was such a special event for their new family to begin as they were surrounded by so many of their closest family and friends.  Both of them were so kind and thoughtful that it was a pleasure to meet and work with them.  She had so many careful accents planned and did so much of the decorating and planning herself.  She is quite a sweet and talented lady!  Enjoy all of the moments and details from their very special day.

There’s just something so sweet about the innocent eyes of a child.  This little guy allowed me to capture such a tender precious moment of perfection.  Both of the babies featured here are perfectly sweet new additions their families.  I’ve enjoyed capturing their first born children and now the newest siblings.  It’s especially cool when they come with special props like fire equipment to use in the images!

It’s never too late to catch up and share these beautiful bridal images from a recent July bride with you.  It was a beautiful day for a bridal session with such a special bride.  I was excited to see all of her carefully planned details and lovely dress.  Isn’t the brooch bouquet an amazing touch of style?  It’s perfectly fine to mix the sassy and sweet as well as simple elegance with vibrant stylish touches.  It’s what makes every bride’s look so unique!

There’s a lot of new faces popping up at Visions by Heather.  Newborn portraits are a growing industry trend and it’s easy to see why.  Who can help wanting to professionally capture every little perfect detail of the miracles given to us?  I really appreciate the precious moments shared with me during the first days of life.  So many changes happen within the first few days that aren’t worth missing.  Once it happens, you can’t go back.  Enjoy just a handful of the beautiful new Visions by Heather babies.  Look for another post to follow with many more sweet baby faces from 2012. 2012-08-27_001 2012-08-27_008 2012-08-27_003 2012-08-27_004 2012-08-27_005 2012-08-27_006 2012-08-27_007 2012-08-27_002 2012-08-27_009 2012-08-27_010 2012-08-27_011 2012-08-27_012 2012-08-27_013 2012-08-27_014 2012-08-27_015 2012-08-27_016 2012-08-27_017 2012-08-27_018 2012-08-27_019 2012-08-27_020

Senior portrait season has started and it has been a great start!  It was a pleasure to meet and work with Summer and her Mom for her senior portrait session experience.  Casual images in the great outdoors were the perfect choice for Summer and suited her personality.  What a lovely subject to work with and such a sweet nature, too.  A portrait session for a senior is such a milestone to capture.  Often they are some of the last solo portraits taken before moving on to other milestones in your life.  I love capturing how fun seniors are, as well as making them see the beauty in themselves.
