I swear I just blinked… and all the kids I used to photograph are out here getting degrees, becoming doctors, and getting ENGAGED šŸ˜³ā¤ļø

Weekend Recap (My heart is FULL)

This past weekend was one of those ā€œwow… look at this lifeā€ kind of weekends. Today was my first day back after resting my left ankle, right knee, and lower back… so yeah, your girl needed it šŸ˜…

Friday – Abbey at Catawba College earning her degree in Nutrition. I met her back in 2018 on the softball field, and now here she is building her future. Her bestie Atta-Girl made it even more special.

Saturday morning – Sydney at High Point University… getting her Doctorate in Pharmacy and still one of the most humble humans I know. So proud of her.

Saturday afternoon – Anita and crew + Texas Roadhouse (THE ROLLS). Anita has been my ā€œwork sister turned real sisterā€ since my Food Lion days, and her family will always feel like mine.

Sunday hit different.
Alex at NC State graduating with his Engineering degree… and THIS one? FULL CIRCLE.

I’ve known the London family for 26 years… since I was pregnant with Olivia. From middle school math teacher days… to Friday night football where I photographed Alex all four years… to his senior photos… and now college graduation… AND he’s engaged.

Excuse me while I process the fact that I am aging in dog years šŸ« šŸ˜‚

To wrap it all up… time with Olivia and Alec ā¤ļø
Crabtree shopping + Morgan Street Food Hall… just soaking it all in.

Pulled in around 12:30am… exhausted and completely grateful.

Huge thank you to Brigette for letting me crash and giving me a home base while I ran all over NC like a woman on a mission (because obviously… I was šŸ˜…).

These aren’t just friends…
These are years… decades… of connection.

From babysitting kids who are now in college…
to photographing seniors becoming doctors…
to friendships that turned into family…

It’s wild. And it’s beautiful.

Y’all… your girl has been BUSY BUSY BUSY. Like, who needs sleep when it’s FALL SPORTS SEASON?! Friday night lights, field hockey sticks, senior smiles, ANDDDD a brand-spankin’ new sport for me… šŸ’ ICE HOCKEY. (Yes, I froze my ass off, but I survived.)

Football? Shot it. Field hockey? Shot it. Cows? Yep, shot them too 🐮 (with my camera… calm down, people).

So here’s the deal ... I LOVE this time of year. Fall sports, fall mini sessions, fall seniors, fall pumpkin spice, fall ā€œall the things.ā€ If you see your kid, your neighbor, your cousin’s boyfriend’s aunt in these galleries — share it, tag me, scream it from the rooftops… I’m here for it.

šŸ“ø Hey friends… quick favor from the heart šŸ’•

I’ve been working on some changes… and part of those changes includes YOU (if you’re willing!).

These updates are part of some BIG shifts I’ve been dreaming up behind the scenes, and I want your voice to be part of it. 🫶

I’m in the middle of refreshing my website + testimonials, and it would mean the world to me if you’ve ever done a session with me, whether it was a milestone moment, a last-minute idea, a sports game, family shoot, engagement, senior session, mini session, or just a fun ā€œwhy not?ā€ kind of day to share a little feedback.

Not looking for flattery, just real talk (IDEAS):
✨ What was the session like before, during, after?
✨ How did you feel about the photos, turnaround time, pricing?
✨ What would you tell a friend considering booking?
✨ What photos have you framed or saved as wallpaper? Why?
✨ And yep… if there’s anything I could do better, I want to hear that too.

If you’re in, here’s how to help:
šŸ‘‰ Go to: https://outgoingportraits.pixieset.com/
ā¤ļø Find your gallery(s) - thankful for my repeat clients 🫶
🌟 Create a ā€œFOR SUSANā€ favorites list (1–5 photos) or
šŸ“ Leave a little note on why you picked each one (what it meant, what stood out, the vibe, the chaos, anything!) I will then take YOUR WORDS and add to your FAVE(s). For those of you that don't wanna play along - just send me your screenshot and note. hahaha

Deadline: Friday 6/12 No pressure… just so much appreciation.

Thanks for being part of this wild, wonderful journey with me šŸ’— xoxoxo, Susan

🌸🐐 Last-Minute Spring/Easter Minis Are Here! šŸ£šŸ‡

Spoiler alert: You’re gonna want to bring the baby wipes… and maybe a backup outfit. šŸ˜†

✨ April 5th & 6th ONLY at Bent Oak Farm – Rixeyville, VA
✨ $150 | 20-minute session | 20+ edited images
✨ Includes baby animals, spring setting, a peaceful pond, and a whole lotta dirt

Kids will bottle-feed baby goats, hold bunnies, hug chickens, and yes—probably fall in love with a rock or two. (We don’t judge.) Expect real smiles, muddy knees, and the kind of springtime memories you’ll want to frame forever.

šŸ“ø Your Session Includes:
āœ”ļø A dreamy spring backdrop with blooms, pond views, and Easter touches
āœ”ļø Snuggles with bunnies, cuddles with goats, and candid family moments
āœ”ļø A digital gallery within 2 weeks – just in time for Easter (April 20!)
āœ”ļø Up to 4 people per session ($20 for each additional)
āœ”ļø All the sweet shots plus a few hilarious bloopers—because goats are unpredictable and toddlers are their own brand of comedy šŸ˜‚

🚜 It’s a real farm:
There’s mud. There are animals. There might be nibbling. You will fall in love with a goat. And yes, someone’s kid will sit in dirt. That’s part of the fun.

šŸŽŸļø VERY limited spots left!
šŸ“„ DM me or grab your session here
āž”ļø https://book.usesession.com/s/_ck_QwA5ry

Let your kids get messy. Laugh out loud. Hug a goat. And soak up the kind of joy you can’t stage.

PSST… šŸ“ø I’M BACK… AND SPRING IS IN THE AIR…

Woooo Hooooo … more sunshine and longer days! šŸŒž CCHS Parents & Athletes—Spring Sports are here, and yep, I’ll be out there again, camera in hand. I’m checking my calendar now to see which games I can get to, but since I’m working full-time (I love my job @ GRB), here’s the deal:

I’m ONLY shooting Varsity games for:
⚽ Boys & Girls Soccer
šŸ„ Boys & Girls Lacrosse
⚾ Baseball
šŸ„Ž Softball

Sorry JV, I just can’t commit to the earlier game times.

šŸ“Œ New rule: If I don’t have at least 3 athletes signed up per game, I can’t commit to going. My time is valuable and we all know I take HUNDREDS of photos. That means if you want me on the sidelines, start rounding up your teammates. And yes, it’s still ONLY $40 per athlete, per game. (Senior Nights are $50)

šŸ’” If there’s a game you really want me to shoot, let me know ASAP – comment here or reach out directly. Most of you have my number, and if you don’t, figure it out (it’s on my website).

šŸ“£ I’m going to tag students and parents I know in Spring Sports—please help me out and SHARE this post so your friends and teammates know I’m back!

Can’t wait to see you all… I have missed you. šŸ’›šŸ’™

🌲 A Timeless Christmas in the Woody Wagon šŸŽ…

Step back in time this holiday season and make memories that feel as magical as they are timeless.

This year, Santa’s arriving in style with his vintage 1936 Plymouth Woody, the perfect blend of holiday cheer and old-world charm. Imagine capturing your holiday photos with this rare beauty as the backdrop, adding a nostalgic touch that feels like Christmas from a bygone era. ✨

Join us at two enchanting locations this year:

🌲 Jeffersonton, VA – Celebrate the season surrounded by rolling hills and a picturesque Christmas tree farm, where every photo captures the spirit of the holidays.

🌲 Warrenton, VA – A hidden gem nestled in the woods awaits, bringing cozy holiday warmth to life in a secluded, rustic driveway setting.

Santa and his Woody Wagon will be on-site, ready to make your holiday photos unforgettable. Santa will be available only on 12/8 & 12/13 – he’s got to get back to the North Pole! šŸŽ… So mark your calendar and spread the word to all the good little boys and girls.

šŸ“… Sessions run Saturdays and Sundays from 10 AM to 4:30 PM. Start planning now to find the perfect time for your family.

šŸ’µ Packages start at under $200 – because holiday memories shouldn’t come with a heavy price tag. Perfect for families, couples, or even your four-legged friends. 🐾 Yes, dogs are welcome!

šŸŽŸļø Booking links go live soon, so don’t miss out. These timeless sessions will sell out fast! ā³ (Don’t say we didn’t warn you šŸ˜‰)





Here’s a little gift šŸŽ‰for those reading till the end: mention THIS post when booking, and you’ll get $25 off. This is our little holiday secret – so keep it close, or no, scratch that... share it far and wide to help fill up these sessions! šŸ˜‰ Thanks everyone, xoxo Susan
