This little session is so special to me because Jacquelyn and I have been friends since the most awkward time of all ... middle school. I couldn't begin to count how many sleepovers, birthday parties and shopping trips we've packed into 14 years of friendship. She stood beside me as I married my husband (and was actually the whole reason Tyler and I met!), and was there at the hospital to meet newborn Tuck. She was also one of the first people to stand in front of my first camera so many years ago! I owe many, many laughs and memories to this sweet, beautiful, selfless friend. So when she and her boyfriend Landon came back to Roanoke this past weekend, I had to snag them for some photos. These two are so in love, and it was such an honor to document a little slice of their relationship. Laura Richards is a natural family portrait photographer in Roanoke, Virginia. If I'm the right photographer for your next session, let's talk!

For most people, the thought of taking photos on a completely overcast day just feels ... wrong. But for photographers, it's the secret ingredient for beautiful, rich photos. Of course I still love my dreamy golden-hours, but when they're not in the forecast, overcast is the next best thing. On the day of my session with the Via family, there was no glowy sunset in sight. But when Janice asked me if we should reschedule, I encouraged her to stick to our plan — and she and I are both so happy we did! Not only was the overcast light perfect, but the surrounding trees were in full fall mode (my favorite). When I look through this collection, I see so much love, movement and passion. The overcast sky provided a cozy feeling that I just don't think you get with sunny days. I loved watching Jace run around and play with his parents and his puppy. (Also, how sweet are his suspenders? They must be a trend in the baby fashion world this season!) And though there's no pretty sunset, their photos are full of warmth.
