Imagine 20 years from now, your family gets to hear your voice talking about what this time in your life means to you. 

At Embers & Grace, we believe that everyone deserves to tell their own story through photos and in their own words. It’s the only way our true authentic story can be told—straight from us.

Heirloom Legacy Sessions are a truly unique way to capture the story behind your photos or moment in your life. We’ve been able to give a voice to newlyweds, new moms, parents of graduates, and grandparents and allow them to tell their story in their own words. These sessions breathe life into and compliment a photo session or can be curated on their own.

Take a listen below as I spend 30 minutes talking about the story behind my clients' portraits with them. I guide them along with questions that dig a little deeper into this season of their lives—the ups and downs, how they met, what they love most about their family, what their dreams are for their kiddos, the funny things they are doing, or what they are most proud of…all the things that make this time in their lives so very important and special—this is their legacy and it deserves to be told in a way that honors their family.

Dibble Family Heirloom Session

Magic. There is just something about a sunrise photoshoot that is pure magic. While most of the world was still sleeping, we had golden hour and Colonial Williamsburg all to ourselves. Morgan and Conner reached out to me to take their family portraits, as their sweet baby girl had just turned 6 months old. They […]

Vickerton Family Session

Genuine.  If you live in the Williamsburg, Virginia area you’ve probably heard of the Vickertons. I swear they are local legends because every single time someone brings up their name in the community I always hear “oh my gosh I love the Vickertons, they’re just the best”  And wow is that true! I really can’t […]

Rohle Heirloom Legacy Session

Sweetest. Oh, my heart. These parents-to-be are literally the most beautiful couple. The way Kirk looked at Chelsea the entire session was heart melting. You can just tell that man is head over heels for his wife and it was just the sweetest session. They chose Colonial Williamsburg for the location for their maternity portraits […]
