MARISSA | 2016 FHS SENIOR | ROUND HILL, VIRGINIAI used to coach Marissa on the swim team wayyyy back in the day. We have pictures to prove it!! Her mom sent me this the other day! There I am making friendship bracelets for all my little swimmer friends. PROOF! Marissa is in the green cap!

So, when Marissa reached out to me for senior portraits, I was really excited when she told me she had a really special spot picked out. She wanted to have her senior photos taken at her grandparents property in Round Hill. She’s REALLY close to her grandparents and spends a lot of time with them. I thought it was the cutest idea ever and when she showed me pictures of the property, I knew it was going to be beautiful!! Mountains in the distance, a beautiful stone house, and an open field. Literally gorgeous, y’all! I had a lot of fun exploring the property and finding “oh my gosh, we have to take a photo here” places. AND THE BEST PART – they invited me to stay for dinner!! Marissa’s grandma made beef stroganoff and homemade APPLE PIE for dessert. Can you say delicious???



Marissa told me that she and her grandpa are taking a trip to London in a few months! Obviously, I’m a fan!
Then her mom snuck in for a few… 



My favorite!
Can I just live here?


GORGEOUS!

And then there’s this super cool barrel just hanging out…
and an epic view of mountains…



Loved this old wooden fence!




Beautiful, Marissa!


Her dress totally brought out the purple in the mountains!
and just for more proof that Marissa was a trooper (because it was actually pretty windy…) here are some bloopers…
Good luck with college apps! I can’t wait to see where you end up!
