• HELLO THERE.

    Welcome to Lifeography®. Some may say my approach to photography is a bit unconventional. I like to think of it as authentic. After all, real life doesn't happen in a studio, when you're watching too closely, or asking kids to smile. For me, clicking with my clients is just as important as clicking the shutter. So take a look around to get a feel for how I capture relationships. Start with the portfolio and explore the blog to dig deeper. You can learn about my business philosophy at the Give Ten Project. If you like what you see, let's connect. I am currently based in Trinity, Florida. You can find me online via Facebook, Twitter & 101,45,109,97,105,108liam-e, or call 757-343-5087.

    See you soon,

Haute Mama | Maternity Photographer Virginia Beach

 

Sometimes photos tell the story best. One glimpse at a gal and mama-to-be as stunning as Lori (and her gorgeous family) tells you my job was simple. She is a fabulous portrait and wedding photographer based in Newport News–and there is nothing more affirming that being asked by a fellow photographer to take their portraits. I was thrilled to oblige. She is radiant inside and out — I wish we lived closer so we could hang out regularly. So thank you sweet mama, for driving to my side of the water for your session and for humoring me despite the crazy mosquitos that bombarded us. You are absolutely stunning…I hope you are as in love with these images as I am.

Fry Baby | Newborn Photographer Virginia Beach

Being commissioned to photograph dear friends’ families is always an honor. Keene’s mama has been dreaming of him for a long time and I feel so blessed to have been able to capture his newness and the love that emanates from his doting family. Of course, with a last name like Fry, we couldn’t resist the shots at the end. Wishing you many years of happy, Fry family. You deserve every bit. XOXO

The beginning of the letting go…

As many of you know, I am a co-editor and writer at The Creative Mama. Today, I share my hopes for my oldest child as he begins Kindergarten. I’m thinking of all of you mamas who let your little ones spread their wings and fly. Read It’s My First Day Too.
