Sentimental Senior and Family Photographer based in Glen Allen, VA

meet laura

Oh, this girl! I’ve been waiting for Evan to become a senior ever since I first photographed her family back when she was just a freshman! She’s now a rising senior at Glen Allen High School and has become such a genuine and kind young lady. Evan is a talented dancer (just wait until you see these images!) and swimmer. She’s also on the yearbook staff and a member of the Key Club at school. Outside of school, Evan volunteers with Jacob’s Chance Buddy Ball. This organization gives children with physical and mental disabilities the chance to participate in sports. (So wonderful!) After college, Evan aspires to be a Neonatal Intensive Care Nurse.

Evan was looking for a slightly rustic/shabby-chic feel to her session. The streets of Downtown Ashland and Randolph-Macon College (Go Jackets!) made for the perfect backdrop. I had so much fun and so many laughs with Evan and her mom. It was a hot and humid evening but we made the best of every moment. Evan, I can’t believe it’s your senior year! I’m so honored with the opportunity to capture your portraits! xoxo
