Every so often over the years, we’ve shared a single photo from around Loudoun County: a back road, a quiet town center, a little piece of local news. It was a way for us to give you a peek into where we were, and what we were up to. Alas, once Instagram came into being, the LoCo Photo series was retired.
Here they are together in one place, from 2009 to 2014. Each one links to the town or neighborhood guide where it was taken, so you can learn more about the area.
Horsing Around · September 2009
Two horses taking a dust bath in a western Loudoun pasture, with the barn and rolling hills behind them. Yes, Loudoun has both suburban convenience and urban farm life too!
Lilacs in Loudoun · May 2009
Spring lilacs in full bloom, seen in the Village Case neighborhood in Purcellville.
Snow in Purcellville · February 2010
The February 2010 snows, as seen from my Purcellville front porch. This was one of the first big snows of my life!
View at Beacon Hill · June 2010
Looking out over the rolling hills and winding roads of Beacon Hill. Learn more on our Beacon Hill neighborhood page.
Clyde’s at Willow Creek Farm · July 2010
The horse sign at Clyde’s Willow Creek Farm, glowing at dusk. Have you stopped by for their crabcakes yet?
Lansdowne in the Morning · August 2010
Lansdowne Town Center at a very early hour, peaceful and too pretty not to photograph. Learn more on our Lansdowne neighborhood page.
Courthouse in Autumn · October 2010
The historic courthouse in downtown Leesburg, framed by fall color. Personally autumn is my favorite season, and this is one of my favorite Leesburg photos.
Beacon Hill Back Roads · April 2011
One of those breathtaking back-road moments, on Hurley Lane near Old Waterford Road. Learn more on our Beacon Hill neighborhood page.
Shoes Cup and Cork · July 2011
A morning of working from a favorite downtown Leesburg coffee spot. I should do this again soon. It’s a really awesome place to start the day.
Al’s Pizza Rubble · August 2011
Saying goodbye to a favorite Purcellville pizza place as the shopping center was rebuilt. We definitely still miss Al’s!
Fly Away · June 2012
The main terminal at Dulles Airport as the sun comes up. I must have been flying out to a real estate conference in the early morning!
Take a Back Road · March 2013
Off Harmony Church Road in Hamilton. There are so many beautiful stone farmhouses dotted across western Loudoun!
Do You Want Fries with That? · March 2013
Opening week for Five Guys on Fort Evans Road in Leesburg. We were so excited at that point! Now we have more Loudoun locations to get those amazing fries.
LOVEwork · April 2013
Purcellville was one of sixteen Virginia is for Lovers LOVEwork sites. Ours, next to the Train Station, had a wine country theme.
Let There Be Lights! · May 2013
New lights at the Franklin Park ball fields, a big deal for Western Loudoun softball and baseball families.
A View from Above · January 2014
Route 7 and Battlefield Parkway from the air, with Tavistock Farms and Kincaid Forest in the center. If I remember correctly, I was flying up to New York for a conference.
While we’ve moved on from the LoCo Photo series here- you can still follow along with us on our Instagram page. We feature different neighborhoods and Loudoun spots there on a regular basis!
Cheers,
Heather
