I really got to know Amber I’ve been hearing “Oh, you’re doing my senior pics!”. ha! She’s been talking about this for a WHILE and we FINALLY got them done this past week! Amber is entering her senior year and I can’t believe how fast these two+ years have flown by. One minute I’m meeting sophomores in highschool and the next minute they’re graduating!! It’s crazy!! So Amber know exactly what she wanted for her portraits. She wanted to shoot them on her family’s farm in Goochland. It’s a beautiful location with rustic barns, old tractors, barking hunting dogs and a lot of golden light that was so perfect for her portraits!!
We spent Wednesday afternoon walking in fields of beans, dodging spider webs and smacking mosquitos! But was it worth it?! Ummm, YES! I can’t wait for you to see these portraits of my beautiful friend!! Amber, I love ya girl! So excited for your senior year!!! Enjoy my favorites and note to self…. I think I deserve a stop a Hardees for a sweet tea and biscuit after EVERY photo shoot!! We made a little pit stop on the way home because we were PARCHED and it left me with a craving for buttery biscuits the rest of the night!!
you’re so cute!!
Beautiful!
This tree was MADE for portraits!
Gorgeous!!!
Love this:)
Had to do some with the glasses! 
This makes me want fun glasses… and I don’t even need them!
Thanks for reading!
