Senior Portraits | Chatham, Virginia Senior Photography

Haley is such a beautiful girl, inside and out! It was my pleasure to shoot her senior portraits. I loved her location selection. Her outfits were fashionable while still showcasing her country girl side:) Haley is a girl who loves her truck and hunting...she also loves horses, I only wish we had been able to showcase that during her session! Haley is a 2015 homeschool senior. Enjoy a few favorites from her senior photo session!

Haley, you are so beautiful and such a pleasure to be around! I wish nothing short of the best for you! Thank you for choosing MBP:)

If you're looking to book your senior session, please do not wait! Summer and Fall are already filling up!

I look forward to hearing from you:) Megan

Katie | 2014 Senior | Senior Photography

Katie made sure to book her session early (last spring)! We planned out her September senior session and incorporated her personality and interests. I was excited to hear that Katie plays guitar, so of course I had to have some fun with that.  She was also one of the few seniors who has brought their class ring to their session! So we had some fun with that too:) Here are few of her senior photos:

The photo below was Katie's favorite!

Thanks so much, Katie, for having me photograph your senior portraits! I'm so glad that you and your family love them:)

Chelsea | Bridal Session | Danville, Virginia Bridal Photographer

I am so thrilled to finally be able to share this session! I shot Chelsea's wedding this past Saturday, but we had a bridal session for her back in April! She is one of the most gorgeous brides that I have ever seen...and I'm so happy to have had the opportunity to do this session! I don't usually do many bridal sessions, since I don't shoot many weddings. BUT I LOVE BRIDAL SESSIONS! Seriously, call me if you're interested!

Anyways, I'll stop rambling...on to the photos! Here are some of Chelsea and I's favorites! It was really hard to narrow it down to a few...

I absolutely love her dress...

SO gorgeous...

Doesn't she rock the fierce face?!! Ahhhh! Love it!

Chelsea loved these in black and white:)

This is the one Chelsea's Mom chose for her portrait! It's in the field where they held the wedding this weekend:)

Thanks so much, Chelsea, for doing a bridal session with us! SO GORGEOUS, girl!

Look for a blog post soon of my favorites from their wedding!

The Burkholders | Anniversary Session | Chatham, Virginia Photographer

Meet the Burkholders. They have been married a little over a year...and never had Engagement photos taken! It's never too late people! We love meeting new people, and these two are quite the couple. They endured the cold and the wind yesterday to get their session done! The sun was behind the clouds for most of the session, but decided to peek out a few times. We took advantage of those moments and got some great shots! I'm so jealous of Dianna's hair...all that wind and it still looked perfect! Definitely a plus for photo sessions:)

Here are a few of my favorites so far:)

There was lots of snuggling...which was totally fine with them, since it was so chilly!

Sandy didn't quite get all of the foliage:)

I saw her car, and just had to do a shot with it!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this one:) See the heart?

Check out those boots;)

Dianna has the best smile! Brenden's isn't too bad either;)

Sigh. I tell ya...this would have to be huge on my wall!! Thank you sun for peeking out!

Brenden and Dianna...we hope you love your photos! Thanks so much for asking us to do them, and for being such troopers to get them done!

Hannah | 2013 Senior | Chatham, Virginia Photographer

Hannah is a 2013 Homeschool Senior...go HS! (Just a plug here, but I'm currently homeschooling a child (not my own) and totally support the idea!) Hannah was a ton of fun and up for anything that I asked her to do:) When we started, I asked her if she liked having her photos taken...to which she replied, "not really." HA! Hopefully she has a different opinion after her session with us:) I just wrapped up editing her session, so I thought I would share a few faves until I can get them all uploaded for her into her gallery:) Check out this beautiful young lady!

Love her personality:)

A little black and white...

A little sass in purple...

Loved this dress...

And for something a little different...my little Thumbelina!

Hannah, we hope you love your senior photos! You were tons of fun and we are enjoying getting to know you!

The Custers | Family Session | Chatham, Virginia Photographer

The Custers are some good friends of ours who live out of town...so since they were in for the weekend, they booked a session with us for their little family, and for Layla's turning ONE! We were so excited about this session! Layla is just too cute...and her Mommy and Daddy are so much fun to be around! I seriously think this is one of the cutest families ever!! It was too hard to pick only a few faves, so here are quite a few;) I'm not quite finished with the whole session yet, but these will hold them over!

Sun-shots are some of my favorites:)

Layla knows "nose!"

Daddy love:)

Mommy love:)

I don't know about you, but I think Layla looks a lot like Mommy here:)

There are too many of Layla on the quilt that I love!

Sigh.

Such a sweet, fun family!

Mary | 2013 Gretna Senior | Gretna, Virginia Photographer

I had the pleasure of photographing Mary, a 2013 Gretna Senior...may I say that she is beautiful inside and out! When I first arrived, Mary and her Mom showed me all these neat things that Mary's grandmother had a hand in: a quilt, a painted milk can, a basket...her whole session would be centered around her Grandmother, who is suffering from Alzheimers. I was touched! She would bring her Grandmother into the session through all of these things...

We started off at Mary's house, with her Grandmother's basket...not to mention some beautiful flowers:)

Isn't she gorgeous?!

Mary was so full of personality...

Here with the quilt her Grandmother made...beautiful! I wanted to take it home with me:) The pearls belonged to her other Grandmother...whom she was named after!

Mary comes from a farming family...and is a member of the FFA at her school:)

And this truck...my goodness, I loved this truck! Her parents actually dated in this truck! How awesome!

The sun was setting, but we squeezed in a few more poses...LOVE this one:)

And this bike matched her boots! How could I not use it?!

Thanks so much, Mary, for choosing us to do your Senior session! It was truly a pleasure meeting someone so strong in their faith as well:) We hope you love your senior photos...and can't wait to see you again soon!
