Ryan + Emmy | Waynesboro, Virginia Portrait Photographer

There was a high chance of rain on Friday and the clouds started rolling in not long before I was supposed to take pictures of Ryan and Emmy. I kept texting Ryan updating him on whether I thought we should shoot early or just cancel and was left just hoping maybe it wouldn't rain. We decided to try to do the pictures a couple hours earlier than I had planned and by the time we got to the location, the sun had come out and the clouds were gone. When that happens, I know it's going to be a good day.

Ryan and Emmy are a wonderful couple and because they are both heading off to different colleges in about a week, they thought it would be a great idea to get some portraits. I usually sadly refuse to do portraits of people who aren't engaged but Ryan's family has seriously hired me for numerous things and I feel like they've all supported my little business in some way, whether it's been through dance for their daughter or senior pictures or whatever and I'm so thankful for that so obviously, I gave in!

We had a great hour shooting in the very back of my neighborhood (who knew it was pretty?!) and I'm so glad I was able to use my new camera for the first time on an actual session! So thank you, Emmy and Ryan! I hope you guys enjoy these pictures! Good luck at college!
