Adventure Elopement and Small Intimate Wedding Photographer

Hey I'm Janel

I'm a Virginia based adventure photographer.

Hey Friends, My name is Janel and I am so glad that you have made it to this page. Let's start off with a little about me. The most important part of picking your photographer is finding someone you can vibe with. Here we go! I am a huge advocate for all-day coffee. Yassss! If I can get away with wearing pajamas believe I am going to do it. My best friend is my dog, yeah he is a little spoiled. I love eating potatoes any kind of way you could imagine, Being outdoors in nature surrounded by wilderness is my favorite thing. I have never felt more at peace than I do when I am by myself in nature, exploring new areas. It is truly my happiest place. I am a huge introvert and need time to myself to reset. I am such a nerd and love laying around reading a good book. I love watching funny TV sitcoms like Friends, New Girl, and Schitt's Creek. Well enough about me, let's get to the part that is all about you. I can't wait to get to know you!

When senior year begins, you’ll find yourself in a whirlwind... for real! Senior class activities, navigating classes, applying to colleges, and avoiding (probably succumbing) to the dreaded “senioritis”. This is a perfect time to slow down and savor the moment. Your senior year is a major milestone and senior portraits are a rite of passageI'm here to make sure you have Senior Portraits you LOVE.

What to Expect

You’re going to love this. Seriously, we will have the best time! The entire process is all about you. We’ll go through outfits and styles together until we’ve found multiple looks that show off your favorite clothes... the clothes that make you feel and look incredible. The best part? I take care of all the little details so you can relax and have fun!

Even if you’re a little (or a lot) nervous, I help even the shyest Seniors loosen up and find their inner supermodel. (You too guys)

I show you how to pose and make it look effortless, AND the best part? I’ll coach you the entire time so that you never feel awkward. I will be on hair and makeup watch, so that you look flawless until the last photo is taken. I want your pics to look incredible just as much as you do!

 

Think of this more like hanging out with your best friend -a bestie who happens to take incredible photos!
