Happy National Friendship Day! 💕

Whit, I am so thankful that God called us to embark on this adventure together. There’s something truly special about working alongside your best friend, creating memories for others, and growing a business we both love (and absolutely tearing up the dance floor at every wedding reception).

To all our friends, family, and amazing clients – thank you for your continued support and love. Here’s to many more memories and moments captured together!

I know Mrs. Debbie’s advice would be. “Book the session!! Get the pictures to cherish every moment you have with those you love!”

There are some people through this journey that we have grown to cherish. Debbie Ragan is one of those for me. We took pictures of sweet Mrs. Debbie and sweet Mr. Bill months before he went to spend eternity with his Savior.

We have now had the honor to continue taking pictures of Mrs. Debbie with both sides of her family. We are extremely blessed to be able to capture these sweet moments and to honor Mr. Bill. We speak of him each time we take pictures and how much Mrs. Debbie misses him, but we know she’s so thankful that he’s walking the streets of Gold with Jesus. 🙌🏼

Hey there, wonderful parents-to-be! When it comes to capturing those precious moments with your newborn, you might be wondering about the different styles of photography available. Let's break it down in a way that's easy to understand!

Lifestyle Newborn Photography In-Home (What GJP offers!):
Picture this: the comfort of your own home, surrounded by the love and warmth of your family's personal space. Lifestyle newborn photography is all about capturing those authentic, candid moments as they naturally unfold.
In-home sessions are relaxed and laid-back, allowing your family to be yourselves without any pressure. We'll document the genuine connections, tender snuggles, and sweet giggles that make your family unique. From cuddling on the couch to nursery naps, every moment is a precious memory to cherish.

Studio Newborn Photography:
Imagine a cozy, professional studio space filled with all the props, blankets, and adorable accessories you can think of! That's where studio newborn photography shines. It's like stepping into a carefully crafted wonderland designed just for your little one's first photo shoot.

So, Which One is Right for You?
Both studio and lifestyle newborn photography offer beautiful ways to capture the magic of those early days with your little bundle of joy. Studio sessions are perfect for those dreamy, posed portraits, while lifestyle sessions celebrate the love and joy of your family's everyday life.

Ultimately, the choice comes down to your personal preference and what style resonates with you the most. Whether you opt for a studio photographer or invite us into your home, we're here to create stunning images that you'll treasure for a lifetime. We understand some clients prefer studio newborn photography, and we would be happy to help find one!

Let's capture some memories together and welcome your newest family member in style!

Our Story

Hi!

Our names are Whitney NeSmith & Taylor Burns. We are lifestyle, love and family photographers that love to capture the memories that people make. We are still in awe that God chose us to be able to love on people in this way.

As we began to ponder the name of our photography business, Whit's sister came across this verse: Our Heavenly Father is where my greatest joy comes from, but there are earthly things that also bring us great joy. One of those for us is capturing people's happiest moments so they can cherish them forever. We have both always loved photos and being behind the camera has now caused us to fall more in love with the art behind each photo.
