Spent the weekend in a PATC cabin by Shenandoah National Park and we had a spectacular sunrise coming through the ice covered trees right outside the cabin on Saturday morning.

…..and here’s the totally freakin’ gorgeous panoramic view from the front porch of the cabin. Just incredible!

Remember Pia from way back when there was a post on here trying to place her in a GOOD home after her not so great stay in a BAD home? Well, I’m happy to report that Pia is doing great. Jack had a sleepover with Pia last night and the two of them had a great time getting reacquainted. So, this morning I took a much awaited opportunity to have a photo session with the two of them. I wish I could do one with all six of them but I’m sure that will never happen. Anyway, here are a few shots from the session and I’m pretty darned pleased. Both of their personalities (which are remarkably similar, but still different) come shining through.

Pia is in the red collar.

It’s really not much. But it just caught my eye.

I like bloggin about fall weddings when it’s 20º outside!

This was a really fun wedding on a beautiful October Saturday at the family’s Botetourt farm. The colors were gorgeous, just enough of that luscious warm golden cast,  and I think I got at least one of my all time favorite ceremony shots under that beautiful old tree in the back yard. Here’s a few.
