Back in October, I wrote about my teen daughter's experience with her Senior High School pictures photography and portraits- by the Best professional Photographer in Hampton Roads - Virginia, Leila Wylie.
A few weeks later we received the proof of the session. They are wonderful and I wanted to share them with everyone who might be considering taking their kids senior pictures or any other family photos. Leila Wylie also does a variety of unique, family, children and boudoir sessions amongst other. Please check her website, and if you book an appointment let her know you heard it here. Enjoy the video and see the quality of work that Leila does. My daughter is shy and I used to think not always photogenic. I think she will always cherish that afternoon and the rewards of a lifetime of memories.

False Cape a Virginia State Park

False Cape is a Virginia State Park in Virginia Beach located between Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and North Carolina. There is no vehicular access to this park. The park covers 4,321 acres on a barrier spit between the Atlantic Ocean and Back Bay to the west.

You may access the Park in the following ways.
-Walk or bike the five miles through Back Bay National wild Refuge.
- By boat across Back Bay
- Tram from April 1st to October 31st.
- Beach transporter. You must call to make reservations.

False Cape got it's name from the ships trying to reach Cape Henry to enter the Chesapeake Bay. These ships often mistook False Cape for Cape Henry and run ashore. The water became shallow quickly and sandbars appeared without notice. Some of the first Europeans to settle False Cape were survivors of these groundings.
Life saving stations were located every 7 miles. The Life-Saving Station in False Cape was completed on December 4, 1874. It was located near where False Cape Landing Ocean campsites are today. The compound also included an observation tower and a boathouse. Two men would patrol each night, one walking north and the other south. Each walked 3.5 miles to meet a crew member from the adjacent station where they would exchange a token to prove they had completed their patrol.
In 1915 the Life-Saving Station Service was merged with the Revenue Cutter Service to from the U.S. Coast Guard.
False Cape is a Virginia State Park in Virginia Beach was decommissioned in 1937. The station was sold to a private individual and in 1969 it was struck by lightning and burned down.
Visit the Wash Woods historical site where the only remaining evidence of these community are headstones and the steeple from a church. At it's busiest time in the late 1800's there were about 300 residents, and it could support a small store and a one room school. Eventually sand began to approach the farmland ant the storms took a toll on the community.
