Outdoor Oil Portrait Session

We love everything about this Outdoor Oil Portrait Session. Photographing Chrissy and her two Golden Retrievers was an honor. We had a blast with Parker, three years old, and Swayze, her eight-week old puppy. It truly doesn’t get much better than this! The universe is a strange and wonderful thing.

We love everything about this Outdoor Oil Portrait Session. Photographing Chrissy and her two Golden Retrievers was an honor. We had a blast with Parker, three years old, and Swayze, her eight-week old puppy. It truly doesn’t get much better than this!

The universe is a strange and wonderful thing. It brings us the most wonderful, loving, and interesting people, for so many different reasons. No matter what the purpose of the portrait, the stories that are shared with us are intricately woven into the images that we create for our clients. 

After unexpectedly losing her father, Chrissy came to us to create a portrait that would honor his memory and represent a new beginning. This portrait would forever remind Chrissy of her and her father’s love for dogs. As our Hayes & Fisk Family knows, dogs are a very important part of our life. Creating this memory for Chrissy had so much meaning for us as well. We are acutely aware that our dogs provide unconditional love in our lives and that we are their entire lives. The happiness dogs and humans bring each other is truly amazing. 

First, we started in the garden at our studio. We photographed each dog individually and then together. Following that Chrissy joined in to complete the family portrait. The garden yielded the most magnificent beam of golden sunlight that day. It was the perfect light for this beautiful session.

Then we waited for the perfect light before heading to the James River. Having water in the background was important to Chrissy. Over the course of just a few minutes, we had the most amazing shots. The light was just right, Chrissy looked beautiful, and the dogs were as cute as ever. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect situation. 

Knowing that these oils will give Chrissy a warmth and loving feeling that she once enjoyed from being in the presence of her father is the greatest gift of all. These images are truly loving memories that will last a lifetime.

This Laramore Sports Session is absolutely gorgeous! We hadn’t photographed their family since 2011, so it was great to see them in the studio again. Joanne brought her daughter Ellie in to showcase her love of swimming with one of our black and white sports sessions. 

Ellie is a long-time swimmer for NOVA and in this session, we highlighted all of her swimmer attributes. We had a great time as we moved through poses creating one amazing shot after another. Her love and respect for the sport came through in each and every shot. 

We enjoy these sessions so much. The sports highlighted in these sessions are true loves for these kids. They practice every day and it makes them who they are. Seeing them showcase their true passion is absolutely amazing. 

Many kids don’t have the opportunity to continue these sports after high school. So images like this serve as memories of a time in their life where they committed everything to something that they truly loved. The life of a NOVA swimmer is not easy. Many of them get up and go to practice every day before they go to school. Also, they spend their weekends practicing and competing. After giving so much to a sport, it is wonderful to capture these memories that let this part of their life live on forever.

Cheely Family Portrait Session

Cheely Family Portrait Session

Today we are sharing the Cheely Family Portrait Session with you. Cindy came to Hayes & Fisk with a gift certificate she had won. She was very excited to update her family’s portrait because they had not done so since Hunter was a little boy. 

During our design session, we learned that Hunter would be graduating in a few years. We knew that this was the perfect time to capture their family portrait. We are all too familiar with that feeling of our children leaving for college. At that moment we try and hold on to every memory and family portraits are a great way to do just that. 

As a 16-year-old boy, Hunter was not super thrilled about sitting for a portrait session. However, he soon realized that this really meant a lot to his mom and dad. We finally brought a little humor to the session and Hunter worked through his poses. Jamie saw the moment when Hunter relaxed. He began to laugh and he had a huge smile on his face. By the end, he admitted it wasn’t so bad, after all.

We were all thrilled to get the perfect pose and expression for the portrait that would soon hang above their fireplace. Once again, creating the perfect memory for this family.

Capturing moments like this is what brings joy to our lives each and every day. Hearing from families about how a session or a portrait has brought so much happiness into their lives, just makes all of the hard work worth it. Family portraits sessions are as much about the experience as the final product. Call us today to schedule yours!
