Fashion Inspiration | Danville, Virginia Custom Photography

Winter is cold and sometimes blustery. And can be plain out miserable. Luckily, I live in an area that is not like this ALL WINTER LONG...we often are blessed with nice days during winter, which has me chomping at the bit to get out there and shoot people! HA!

Another reason some people may avoid winter photos is because they think they can't look cute and not freeze to death at the same time. Well, fear not! I'm here to help with the winter fashion blues and can't wait to share some looks that I recently came across, as well as some looks from my own seniors!

Winter opens up a whole new realm of opportunity for expression through fashion. I ran across this blog recently that shares 60 trendy winter looks! Here is one of them:) LOVE this skirt and blouse combo!

Or how about jackets? You can still look amazing and be warm too! I love peacoats and trenches, but this embellished leather jacket looks amazing!

Fur is one of my favorites, and has def been on trend this season. I loved adding it in with prom dresses! But fur is a great addition to a plaid shirt or even sequin looks!

Don't fear the winter wardrobe when it comes to photos...you can still look amazing despite the cooler temps! I shoot senior sessions year round. If you're looking to book your senior portraits soon, just use the contact tab at the top of the page! I look forward to hearing from you and helping overcome any wardrobe blues!

Stay Stylish! Megan

Senior Portraits | Danville, Virginia Senior Photography

Mariah is one of my 2015 Senior models. I remember meeting her for the first time and loving how adorable she was! She had so many different ideas for her session, so it was tons of fun to plan. I loved ALL of her outfits, especially the romper! We started her senior portrait session in downtown Danville and finished up out in rural Chatham. Her session may or may not have included my running from a bee (and guiding my clients away from a yellow jackets' nest)! See, your senior session can be full of so many different memories! Enjoy a few favorites from the day:

Ohhh this top...

LOVE LOVE LOVE this romper...so perfect!

I love the windblown look here:)

Mariah is a dancer, so of course we had to include some dance photos too!

"Dance is the hidden language of the soul." -Martha Graham

And we both loved this shot...so serene.

Mariah, her Mom, and I had a great time during her session! I'm currently booking 2015, which includes 2016 seniors! The inquiries have already been rolling in, so don't wait until the last minute!

I look forward to hearing from you! Megan

November Recap | Premiere Senior Photography | Chatham, Virginia

This past month has seriously flown by...way too fast! Christmas is just around the corner! We're wrapping up Thanksgiving get-togethers, eating leftovers, and pulling out the Christmas decorations. Where did this month go?! November wasn't quite as insanely booked as last month, thank goodness, but I did get to photograph some awesome seniors! There were a few other sessions too:) Here are some favorites from the month:

My seniors were gorgeous as always:) Morgan's shoot was downtown and I just love how this wind-blown one turned out!

Chelsi's senior session was full of the beautiful fall colors.

Peyton knew what she was doing when she paired the stripes with the quilted vest! Such a great fall fashion statement! I love the boots and the socks as well:)

As I stated earlier, I got to shoot more than just seniors this month:) Lindsay's teen style session included lots of dance! I love the movement in this photo:

Eric and Dulce are like seriously the world's most attractive couple...we had such a great time shooting their engagement portraits despite all the wind!

The Seays will be welcoming their little bundle after Christmas!

Faith and her boys make such a beautiful family. They were troopers for their chilly session.

Rae Anne & Kavon booked me again...this time for their engagement photos! And this time, there was a new addition to their family! Meet Jade, their beautiful pit:)

Lots of gorgeousness in this post! I am blessed to have such amazing clients! Thanks for making November memorable:)

If you're looking to book a session, I'm already booking 2015! So don't wait!

Premiere Senior Photography | Chatham, Virginia Photographer

Lydia's session back in August took place around town (Chatham). We enjoyed walking around town discovering little nooks for her photos:) Lydia has such a natural beauty...and I love her short hair! It's not often that I shoot senior girls with short hair, but she totally pulls off the look! Lydia is a homeschool 2015 high school senior, whom also attends church with me! I love her and her family and was thrilled to shoot her senior photos:) Here are a few of our favorites from the day!

See what I mean?! A total natural beauty! I know you will go far in life, Lydia! Best wishes with your senior year and plans for the future!

Americana | 2015 Senior Model Team | Danville, Virginia Photographer

To say that we had a blast on this session would be an understatement...the only thing I would have changed would have been to start early to be able to enjoy it longer and get even more awesome photos! I wanted to get my senior model team together again and have some fun. They were pretty thrilled with the Americana theme I chose. They did a FABULOUS job pulling their outfits together! Enjoy a few favorites from the session!

Ohhhh and choosing a song that fit just right seemed impossible. But I like the way the video turned out:) I have such a great group of seniors...way better than Kenny makes out American Kids to be! Sure, they know how to have a good time though! I seriously would take in any of these seniors as my own.

Caitlin | Studio Formal Session | Danville, Virginia Photographer

Caitlin is one of MBP's 2015 Senior Models:) I am so excited to have her on my team! Caitlin blew me away during her in-person interview, so when I decided to try something new with the studio formals, I called her up and asked her if she would be interested. She was, and after I saw her prom dress, I knew this was going to be an amazing experience for us both. The color of her dress went perfectly with what was in my head. It's always exciting to try new things, and I had a blast trying out artificial lighting and a whole new style of photography.

MUA: Kim Dalton (Caitlin said she felt like a princess!)

Here are a few of my faves from her session. She was like royalty, for real. I couldn't get over how glamorous she was!

See what I mean about royalty? Looks like a pose for the Queen!

Her smile is infectious!

And those EYES!

Caitlin, thanks for trying out something new with me! Yall be sure to watch out for Caitlin's senior session later this year. We are already planning and it's going to be AMAZING!

I will be offering Studio Formals as an addition to MBP senior sessions, so if you're interested in booking, you can get started by using the Contact tab!
