And we made some extra time during their bride and groom pictures to revisit the spot that we did their engagement pictures! Which made it so unique!!  #rumseymonument #shepherdstown #clarionhotel

Wedding season is here and we kicked it off with an open house at BVINTAGE today! It was such a blast getting to talk with our incredibly talented locals! I loved all these boss ladies and what each one of them offered! Please Tiptoe brides if you haven't checked out BVINTAGE, WOODEN RUFFLES, MOUNTAINEER POPCORN COMPANY, SUGAR WHIPPED, WEST VIRJENI, AND MAKEUP BY CEEJAE please do so SOON, they had some of the cutest, sweetest, and most delicious things EVER!

Oh my goodness...Susie has grown up!! We first shot Susie with her family years and years ago, and have had a couple different shoots throughout the years but now it was time for her SENIOR shoot, which I was so excited for because her shoots are always so much fun! She always had great ideas and wore the cutest outfits! Plus it helps that she is so good in front of the camera! So I knew that this senior shoot wouldn't be any different!  We spent hours shooting, on a super windy day, and I just wanted to share some of her gorgeous teasers!! Love this gal!

This is going to be a trip of a lifetime for the 5 of us at Tiptoe! We have been planning and prepping for this trip for months! And THIS Friday we are hitting the road, off to NYC!  We are visiting B&H photo store to do some major shopping!  From the videos and websites I have researched, this is like the ultimate photo store on the East Coast!! And I am going to feel like a kid in a candy store!! Ahhh!! We will keep you all posted on social media this weekend with all our adventures... Well most of them! LOL!! 2000px-I_Love_New_York.svg images-2 images-3

And the end of our seniors sessions for the 2016 year are about coming to a close! With that being said, I am seriously on the verge of tears! Lots and lots of my seniors this year are kids that I have known and been shooting for years! And among them is Blake, who was literally one of my first 5 shoots ever, way back in the beginning of Tiptoe, like 8 years ago! To say that I've gotten to watch him grow up is an understatement!  **Tears** He's such a bright kid with a great head on his shoulders, and is usually calm cool and collected, when the rest of the family is going crazy! (Love you Tom!)  I can't wait to see what life has in store for him. *tears again* Big sigh! Enjoy your teasers! thaldorf-11 thaldorf-14 thaldorf-20 thaldorf-44 thaldorf-52
