In the past 3 months, life has changed in CRAZY ways around the world and the US. I still can’t quite believe it! While life is crazy, there are still some really, really exciting things going on that need to be celebrated…like the Class of 2020’s Graduation!! I am SO proud of the Class of…

Alright y’all, I know you’re probably thinking “another coronavirus blog post,” but I’m really truly excited to bring this to you. I’ve seen so many photographers stressed during this chaotic time…and I get it! There’s a lot going on, a lot of unknowns, and maybe you’ve had to cancel a lot of business. Instead of…

Wow, y’all! It has been a bit since I’ve shared a senior session with you! I decided last fall that I would take off the month of December and then, ease back into photographing in January. After taking a month in a half off of photographing senior photos, I was SO excited to photograph Natalie’s…

Wohoo! Happy New Year!! As I shared in my last blog post, 2019 was a year of a lot of change, and while we’ve started to settle in our new home, I have a hunch that things will continue to change! 😉 Choosing a word of the year is one of my favorite ways to…

This might be my favorite post of the entire year. I just LOVE going back through all of the senior sessions and pulling out some of my favorite images of the year. While it might be my favorite, it is also the HARDEST blog post to create. I’m just getting started typing this, and I…

I’m pretty sure this session will go down as one of the BEST fall color filled session, and I’m sure you’ll quickly see why! When I chatted with Chad about his session he told me he was up for anything. He said he likes just about everything, and he’d like anything I’d suggest! I super…
