A little about Becca

Like most people I'm a lot of things, to name a few: I'm a wife to Andy and a mom to Tyler and the companion to my rescued Australian Cattle Dog, Braun. I have a passion for photography that just won't quit. I believe there is always more to learn and I take the time to continue doing so, through both reading and classes. When I'm not spending time with my family, editing pictures, at my full time job, I'm probably sleeping (gotta fit that in somewhere). I just celebrated a "big" birthday. I love spending time outside, I love it even more when it involves a mountain, a lift, and my snowboard, watching my dad yard sale across the mountain is just an added bonus. So now you know a little about me, and I hope to get know more about you. A little about my gear: I shoot with all high quality Nikon ditigal equipment. I have a main and back up camera, so no worries there. I also have off camera flash and some great lenses, everything I need to capture all those special moments. I edit all my pictures using my trusty MacBook Pro, Adobe Lightroom 3 and Adobe Photoshop CS4. A little about this site: Instead of having both a blog and a website I have found an option that combines both into one. So please look around and come back often as you will be able to see my latest work through my blog below. At the top of the page you will find links to my portfolio galleries. I love comments so please leave me one. The picture you see of me being silly is courtesy of Andi Grant Photography. Thanks for visiting, hope to see you back soon

Emerald Isle North Carolina Wedding Photography ~ Tami and Brandon

Posted on October 15, 2010

Tami and Brandon were married on the beach, that’s not unusual to see in Southeast VA, but this beach was just a bit different. Tami and Brandon shared their vows on a pretty little beach in coastal North Carolina. You may remember seeing these two before here when Tami’s sister Cherish married Jeff.  I have to say it was pretty awesome to be able to see this whole thing come together.  To be chosen by a couple as their photographer is a big deal, to then be chosen for another family members wedding, it’s just amazing, makes me fell like I’m doing something right.  I was told pretty early on that the two weddings would be very different, Cherish and Jeff has a traditional event, where Tami and Brandon, has a relaxed Morocan themed one.  I was so very pleased with all the images from this wedding, it was hard to narrow it down, I still ended up with over 40 for you ya’ll to peruse.  Enjoy, comment, send your friends!

Tami’s beautiful dress, not the typical beach wedding dress, which made me like it all the more

When you can’t get flowers in the color you want, you make them that way, kinda cool huh? The ring belonged to Tami’s dad.

Virginia Beach Wedding Photography ~ Oceanfront Hilton ~ Kat and Brian

Posted on October 7, 2010

This wedding was held on a lovely spring day down in Virginia Beach at the Hilton. There were so many things to love about that hotel, lots of cool seating, it was bright and fun, and the food was amazing! I’m pretty sure I managed to break my toe by opening a door on into it, not one of my smarter moments, but life went on, with a little bit of a stutter in my step. Since I was second shooting for this wedding I got to spend a lot of time with details, so this post is going to be all about the details.. well, almost all about the details, I have a few people shots I couldn’t resist throwing in. John Cachero was in charge this day, I’ve seen all his awesome shots, you should go look too.

Norfolk Wedding Photography ~ Norfolk Botanical Gardens ~ Leala and Brian

Posted on July 26, 2010

Leala and Brian were married on a beautiful spring day at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens. They chose the Renaissance Court for their ceremony and I can’t begin to tell you how beautiful the light was that April day, you’ll see it in the pictures. My trusty second shooter for this wedding was John Cachero. John and I talked about was how many little moments there were throughout the day, it was wonderful to be able to capture them. I have to say that one of the great aspects of having your ceremony and reception at the same location is the extra time given for pictures. We had so much fun working our way towards the reception shooting at different places we had scouted out ahead of time. Here are some of my favorites of the day.

Virginia Beach Baby Photographer ~ Justyce!

Posted on June 16, 2010

The first time I met Justyce he was just a day old, and he was adorable. As he has grown he had gotten cuter and cuter. It was hot this day and Justyce just wasn’t really into our shoot, but after much effort Jessica managed to get him to play along. As you scroll through the pictures you’ll see him getting happier till finally you get a peek at his award winning smile. These pictures were taken in my parents beautiful back yard, we originally planned on shooting at Princess Anne Park, but I texted Jess and said, hey my parents back yard is beautiful and more private, you want to go there? My persuading worked. I hope you enjoy a few pictures of this cute little man.
