On just about any given day you will catch me dreaming of capturing memories for you to remember for a lifetime. I am a portrait photographer located in a small town in Southern Virginia. I'd like to say my photography is something new to me, but I've been taking pictures for over eight years. Ok, so maybe not with an actual camera.. I'm an Xray Tech by day. So, I take medical images by using a Cat Scan or MRI Machine. AKA, I take pictures of your insides. lol Ok, so I'm honestly just a party waiting to happen. People tend to describe me as someone who never meets a stranger and is always up for an adventure, and I do!!
I'm so glad you are here!
I'M EMILY, PHOTOGRAPHER & OWNER OF BRANCH + VINE PHOTOGRAPHY
Welcome Friend!
I am married to my best friend, Hunter! He is the biggest supporter of me & this company. We have been married since February 2019, together we have the cutest Wheaton Terrier named Jax and eight sassy little chickens.
He is truly my best friend, and we both say it was nothing short of God's plans for us to be together.
Hunter & I say we enjoy the small things in life like slow dancing in the kitchen to Tyler Childers "Lady May" or riding around the farm enjoying each others company..and we do..but ya girl LOVES TO TRAVEL too! lol Who is with me?! I'll take any trip and opportunity to travel I can get and I'm hoping that will always include some body of water!
Which leads me to my company name, Branch & Vine. It is all about John 15. In this chapter I am reminded to remain in Him, that He provides, guides & protects. His command to love one another, how he takes care of us, He prunes us & our "fruits". Which is my hope, to be pruned by the Gardener and love as He has loved us.
Okay, so other than my over the top personality, my love for my husband, family & friends, my Love for God is most important. Faith is a big part in this company & my story.
If this wasn't made known above or you weren't aware of how much I meant that.. I LIKE TO TRAVEL! I think it would be too hard for me to pick an actual favorite spot but anything with a large body of water will always bring an instant smile to my face. Especially if that includes the words "all inclusive" lol Cause ya girl also likes unlimited food!
TRAVELING MAKES ME OH-SO-HAPPY
We have the cutest Wheaton named Jax and he is the apple of my eye! I might be partial but he is undoubtably the cutest and smartest doggo around! I also have this newly found obsession with my chickens. Yes, you can call me that crazy chicken lady, I have earned this title proudly! I am slowly talking my husband into all the farm animals but it's still a work in progress... lol
I'M ALL ABOUT MY ANIMALS!
It's cheesy but OH SO TRUE! We have been married for two years and I have undoubtably found my soulmate! We love doing just about anything as long as we are having fun together! I am a strong advocate for waiting on the right one, and boy was it worth the wait!! If I could start a seminar on this I would lol but for now I'll just say How grateful I am for my husband and that everyone deserves this kind of love!
MY HUSBAND IS MY VERY BEST FRIEND!
Although I do still work full time as an Xray Tech, this job allows me to be creative and have an absolute blast meeting new people. I never meet a stranger and love meeting new people. I honestly cherish every session as it allows me to be so creative with each client and location and talk with you along the way!
I LOVE BEING CREATIVE & I AM AN EXTROVERT
It's no secret you can catch me weekly at our local mexican restaurant, and sometimes even twice a day! lol Call this a problem but I just need sweet tea (preferably Chick-fil-a ;) & a chicken quesadilla! Oh and all the chips, queso, Guacamole and salsa I can hold! lol
What more could a girl need??
I CAN SURVIVE ON MEXICAN FOOD & SWEET TEA
