Black Swan Books

I happened to take a bike ride and stumbled upon this sweet spot- Black Swan Books. I must admit, the dog caught my eye. How cool is it that his name was Copyright? His kind mother was the owner of the store and allowed me to take photos. You can find everything from vintage records to classic novels. It was a great find! After the bookstore I made my way to Starbucks for a little alone time. Honestly, do you think I would go anywhere else??

The owner was trying to get Copyright to pose for me. He wasn't feeling it.

Someone was working a little too hard.

The decorations put me in a warm, winter mood!

Journal + Green Tea Frap = Good times.

Sheylene's Apple Pie

I happened to walk in on my roommate baking a delicious apple pie. For some reason I was so fascinated! You know- It was probably because the whole thing was made from scratch or maybe its just because I can't cook. Either or, I thought I would snap a few photos. The photos don't even do justice for how it tasted. Thanks Sheylene!

Bragg Family

Hello all! I wanted to introduce you to the Bragg family. I had the honor of spending the afternoon with this bunch in Maymont Park, Richmond, VA. The afternoon couldn't have gone better. Love you guys!

Noah & Ryan

Morgan

Andrew

Looks like Ryan is getting ready for the race.

Patience is a virtue.

Poor Morgan. Middle children get it worst huh?

Momma's boy.

Playtime with daddy!

I think I was boring Noah a little. He was ready to play.

Never a dull moment with this bunch!

You can see why they have the sweetest kids.

Kim & Calvin are the best parents.

In everything they do, they do it with love.

Galati Family

Hello all! Sorry I haven't been very up to date on this blog. I have been working on some side projects. I was privileged to spend the day with Beth Galati and her beautiful family. I met Beth at my current Church- Aletheia. Beth is an amazing woman of Christ & mother of four who has inspired me greatly. The portraits were taken in Mt. Jackson, Virginia. We had a blast. I hope you get a little taste of what this awesome family is like!

Mommy's kisses are the best!!

All of Beth's children adored their mommy.

The kids had on the cutest outfits from J Crew.

Great choice Beth!

Taking time to reflect.

Cutest kids ever!

This family couldn't have made the day more fun. Thanks guys!
