Great Expectations

I have an ongoing struggle with one thing…..expectations, the
trouble is I have them about almost everything!! The equation goes
like this, Great Expectations= Frequent Disapointments (not always,
but often)!
Slowly but surely Im learning a new configuration… Submit all hopes,
dreams, ambitions, and worries {to the Lord} + patience = More than we
could exceedingly ask or imagine (Eph 3:20).
It turns out even my loftiest desire pales in comparison to what He
has in store for me, but I must let go of my own agenda. Then the
blessing will return pressed down, shaken, and overflowing.(Luke 6:38)

Most frequently asked question!? When to book the newborn session- the magical window for posing is the first 10-14 days after birth! So book when you are expecting- we pencil in your due date then come to your home in Fredericksburg Va! I set up next to the best window- and preserve this special fleeting moment in time! We offer family session with newborn too and also like to include furry siblings! 🐶 🐈

2025 is the year of the wedding for me!! This snowy engagement session pretty much made my day when I arrived to 50 degree weather in Richmond at the botanical gardens! We headed straight for the Japanese section and it was magical!
