Norfolk, Virginia In-Home Couples Session

March 14, 2018

*WARNING* There are lots of lovey dovey cuteness like the image below being displayed on this blog post!

Norfolk In-Home Session

And if you are like me and LOVE that kind of stuff, then continue on friend!

Oh my goodness this in-home couples session with Nathan and Teallia gives me all the feels…and hopefully you too! While living in the Hampton Roads area as a photographer you are bound to work with a ton of military families/couples! It’s just not uncommon because of all the military bases here! When we moved here I had hoped I got the opportunity because it was all so new to me (since we are not military).  Luckily, I have had the pleasure of working with such GREAT people who experience what it’s like to REALLY miss their loved one(s) because they can be gone from anywhere from a few months to a few years. That can be rough especially when children are involved. Nathan and Teallia have a 4 year old daughter, Alliet, who is so stinking adorable it’s unreal. She just LOVES her mom and dad to pieces.

(Just prepare yourself now for all the cuteness!)

Nathan had been gone for 7 months this time around, so naturally Tea wanted an in-home couples session as soon as he returned! Tea is actually another amazing photographer here and that made this session a breeze. I could have photographed them for hours and hours! And yes, I think I really was at their house for hours and hours HAH! They just my job super EASY the whole time! Serious couple goals friends. It’s rare when the guy is saying “Let’s do this!” or “OK, now let’s look straight on” or “What is that one pose that every does on Instagram?” 🙂 It was great!! And you could just tell that he loved Tea SO much and would do anything for her. That just speaks for itself in this photos that you are about to see!!

After you done reading and looking at these and are wanting an in-home session, PLEASE feel free to reach out. They are my favorite. OK, thanks. Enjoy! Bye.

Behind the Lens

MEET Jessie

Photographer, creative, wifey, boy mama - inspired by music, good light, and you.

Hi! I’m Jessie Walker Drudy, and I’m so glad you’re here!

I specialize in weddings, couples, families, maternity and now offering boudoir. I am currently based in Virginia Beach, VA but I Serve All of Virginia and willing to travel! 

When I’m not photographing weddings, you’ll usually find me a local coffee shop with a mom friend aka running after our wild kiddos or watching some sort of sporting event with my husband! Our two dogs are considered a part of our family and I truly enjoy when my clients bring their own dogs (or cats because we don't discriminate) to their sessions or incorporate them in details at weddings!

I've been doing this for more than a decade and I'm still obsessed with the joy I witness on my clients’ biggest days. 

My clients don't leave with a stack of posed portraits. They leave with little slices of real life — the looks, the laughs, the moments nobody else noticed because they were too busy celebrating or fully taking it all in.

That’s the mission, and it starts well before your session or wedding day. I’m not here to be a stranger behind a lens, I’m here to help capture the story you’ll be telling for years to come!
