Purple Fern

The prettttttiest senior session! I graduated high school (at the same school) with this beautiful girlie’s mama. So, this felt like a little bit of a full circle moment. I had so much fun adventuring on their family farm! I may have even gotten to bottle feed a baby goat at the end!!!! 😭🥹 Best day ever.

I love the way our yard looks in the spring. These wildflowers will be blooming for another week or so if anyone would like to squeeze in a session! 💜
Always such a joy working with this sweet family and watching their kiddos grow through the years. 😊

I’ve been talking a lot recently about how being a good wedding photographer isn’t just about taking a beautiful photo… it’s way more than that. It’s helping with creating calm during the day of… it’s noticing little details and collecting those creatively to help to tell the story. It’s knowing when to step in—and when to disappear.
I’m truly so thankful for all of the couples that trust me to tell their story. 💜
I can’t wait for wedding season to start!

These boss babes just popped up on my phone’s memories…
So, of course I had to share. Lovedddd this wedding in DC!

One thing I absolutely loved about this wedding and couple was how present they were. It’s always so special to see a couple so excited to share their special day with the people that mean the most to them, and to really take the time to absorb every second of their wedding day. 💜

The Purple Fern Holiday Art Market has begun! We’ve transformed our space again and we can’t wait for you to see it!

We’ll be at the studio today from 11-5! Come by and say hi! 💜

We are SO EXCITED to bring back our holiday art market to downtown, Wi******er this year!

We've been busy tagging vintage, growing amazing plants, and working with local artists to bring you the best of the best!

Starts Black Friday and stays open til Christmas!

Alex Beck is a fine art artist based in Wi******er, Virginia, known for his nostalgic, collage-like painting style that lives somewhere between realism and imagination—a space he sometimes calls gestural realism. Rooted in observation yet driven by instinct and curiosity, his paintings are sculpted, painterly interpretations of the world around him. Real people and places often spark his work, but what emerges on the canvas is filtered through memory, collage, and imagination.

We are SO EXCITED for the grand opening THIS FRIDAY!

Friday 6:00-8:00 opening reception (free and open to the public)
Saturday 11:00-6:00
Sunday 12:00-3:00
