Back when I received Ansley’s inquiry for Christmas card photos, I was still living in my old townhouse with my old roommates. I got her inquiry one morning and then that evening, my roommate Logan who works in the NICU mentioned that she had chatted with her co-worker Ansley about me and how I was a photographer. Logan mentioned my name and they made the connection but it was just so crazy because Ansley had already emailed me before they realized I was Logan’s roommate. I got really excited because connections like that are always fun and I love when my clients know my friends!

We decided to shoot at one of my favorite places, Pharsalia (someone please get married there and hire me), and we ended up with the best fall day anyone could have hoped for! They brought their golden retriever and we got some really cute photos that they ended up using for their Christmas card! I absolutely love doing couples sessions and when there’s an adorable dog involved, it’s even better. Your heart might explode a little like mine did when you see some of the images below! Haha.

Ansley and Blaine, I loved meeting you both!! Thanks for making the trek to Pharsalia and letting me capture your love and your pup!! I love how these photos turned out and I hope they brought a smile to all your friends’ and families’ faces like they did mine!
