A standout on a corner of King Street, this little church has been here since the 1800’s. I love to drive by it and admire its stained glass windows, weathered steeple and intricate architectural details. The parish is building a new, very large church across the street. I hope this little gem will still be adored and used when it’s all said and done.

Union Cemetery at Sundown
One thing we’ve got going for us here in Leesburg is a literal hotbed of Civil War era history. I’ve driven past the Union cemetery at least a thousand times on my way to the gym, library and piano lessons, but have never stopped to go in until yesterday. It is a serene and beautiful place with gravestones covered in moss bearing names from the 1800’s of men and women who lived during an uncertain time of our country’s history. Enjoy a few shots from the Union Cemetery, Leesburg, Virginia.
And a bonus photo because this falcon was an ideal model, so I had to.

Week One: Greenway Farm Study
This farm building, with it’s gorgeous worn wood, towering silo and combination of photo ready textures, greets me every time I enter and exit my neighborhood. Though it’s original windows have been replaced and half the metal roof blew off in a terrible wind storm a few years back, certain elements like crumbling brick covered in creeping vines are original to the structure. I’m thinking a family photo shoot is in order. What say you?
