The last time the Jones's family photos moved to the studio

We started with some classic family images… and then things got really fun.

Star Wars. Ren-faire. Lightsabers, leather details, and so much personality.

This is exactly why I love what I do. Getting to capture the real personalities of a family—the quirky, the playful, the things that make them them—and watching their story grow year after year.

These are the sessions that remind me photos don’t have to be traditional to be timeless.

Sometimes the weather has other plans.

Ray had originally planned to create her nursing graduation portraits outdoors. When the forecast changed, I was happy I was available for a last-minute pivot to my new studio. With a private studio there is no scrambling to find a backup location, no worrying about rain, wind, or extreme temperatures—just the ability to move forward and celebrate important milestones.

And this was definitely a milestone worth celebrating.

After countless hours of studying, clinicals, exams, and determination, Ray has officially completed nursing school. I loved incorporating her textbooks, stethoscope, graduation regalia, and even the special tassel charm honoring someone important to her journey. Every detail helped tell the story of the hard work that brought her to this moment.

Congratulations, Ray! Your dedication, perseverance, and heart have carried you this far, and I know they will serve you well as you begin this next chapter. Wishing you all the success in the world as you step into your nursing career.

Some sessions are special because of the milestone. Some are special because of the person.

Photographing Kim’s college graduation session was one of those sessions that meant a little extra to me. Her family has been like family to me for most of my life, so getting to celebrate this huge accomplishment with her felt incredibly full circle.

We photographed her session in beautiful Smithfield, Virginia, and I loved how the classic brick architecture and soft evening light paired perfectly with the elegant feel of her cap and gown portraits. I loved the mix of professional portraits, graduation images, and all the little in-between moments that showed her personality and confidence.

Watching people you care about reach goals they’ve worked so hard for is one of the best parts of what I get to do.

Congratulations, Kim. I’m so proud of you and so excited for everything ahead.

There’s something really special about photographing the children of people you’ve known since high school. Watching life come full circle and getting to capture such an exciting season for their family is always an honor.

Haden’s senior session in Yorktown gave us the perfect mix of everything I love about this area — glowing lanterns and brick walkways by the waterfront, soft greens tucked into hidden trails, and dreamy little creek spots that feel straight out of a storybook. Every outfit brought such a different vibe, from elegant and flowy to relaxed and playful, and she made every single look effortless.

I especially love how these images feel both timeless and full of personality. Senior sessions should feel like you, and Haden absolutely brought that to every moment of this session.

Yorktown continues to be one of my favorite places for senior portraits, and sessions like this are exactly why.

One of my favorite things about photography is getting to celebrate the people connected to my own community. This time it was especially fun getting to photograph Naylin — the daughter of one of my roller derby teammates — for her senior portraits at City Center in Newport News.

I love how much personality we packed into this session. From basketball photos that felt playful and full of energy to cap and gown portraits by the fountains at sunset, every part of this session felt so perfectly her. The mix of casual outfits, graduation photos, city textures, and soft evening light gave us such a fun variety throughout the session.

City Center continues to be one of my favorite spots for senior portraits because every corner gives something a little different — modern city vibes, water views, glowing lights, and beautiful sunset colors all in one location.

And can we talk about that basketball spin shot for a second? Absolutely worth it.

Senior portraits in Yorktown always give me the perfect mix of everything I love — water, woods, sunset light, hidden little spots, and just enough adventure to make every session feel unique. This year was no different.

When my friend Christina reached out about photographing her daughter’s senior portraits, I was so excited. Watching friends’ kids grow up and getting the chance to capture such a huge milestone always feels extra special.

From the cowboy boots in the creek to soft sunset portraits on the beach, every part of this session felt effortlessly beautiful and so perfectly her. I love creating senior sessions that feel personal and relaxed while still capturing all the little details and moments that make this season unforgettable.

Senior sessions are some of my favorite stories to tell.

Slowing things down on a busy day with multiple events because I’m feeling emotional, maybe a little vulnerable.
Forgive if it rambles, I didn’t use ai lol
As I’m making the final (last minute) decision on my studio space for the next couple of years, I want to take a moment; A moment to reflect on all the amazing things I’ve done in the last 12 years of business, A moment to appreciate all the opportunities I’ve been given and most of all A moment to thank everyone who has helped make L Workman Photography what it continues to be.
Every time someone hires me, shares a post, tags me in an ISO, sends a friend or family member, you make my dreams possible. When my precious friends come help me clean and organize I know I’m not alone. When I don’t have to worry about my boys because I have the most amazing support system, it makes the moments away not so hard. When the economy is tight and someone who loves my work hires me or offers me a new opportunity it confirms I’m worth it.
Thank you all for little moments with your babies, beautiful celebrations, your chaos, my chaos, elevated professional excellence, your beautiful faces. Thank you for your trust and shared excitement every time I create something new. Thank you for letting me be an artist not just a person with a camera and the chance to try new things.
This year is already 1/3rd of the way over 😳 and it’s already been a busier start to the year than last last couple but I’m always looking for new clients, new events, new faces while hoping to see all my favorite people this year.
I love you all, I truly mean it.

A fairy first birthday straight out of a storybook ✨

This sweet girl’s fairy-themed cake smash was pure magic from start to finish. From the whimsical set details to the two perfectly chosen outfits her mom brought, every part of this session was thoughtfully designed to bring the theme to life.

I love crafting each first birthday session to feel completely unique—no two are ever the same. From the colors and textures to the tiniest props, it’s all about creating something that fits your vision and celebrates this once-in-a-lifetime milestone. And that cake? Absolute perfection, courtesy of Sweet Chef.

If you’ve been dreaming of a first birthday session that feels custom, intentional, and just a little bit magical… this is your sign.
