There is no cookie-cutter definition for mother. A mother figure can look different to every person. But the one non-negotiable quality of a mother is LOVE 💕
Happy belated Mother’s Day to all the superwomen out there who love us in astounding ways!

It’s graduation season! 🎓
Tell all the grads in your life to NOT skip out on pictures. After countless hours studying and racking up the credits, they deserve to be celebrated for their huge achievement.
Besides, if you send some announcements out to all your loved ones, they might mail you some money! (Hello student loans😫) what do you have to lose?
Congratulations Taylor on your upcoming graduation!

If you read my last post about home lifestyle sessions, you’ll know I’m a HUGE fan!
Each one is unique to the family and no two are alike! Your photos will be true and authentic to your style, personality, home environment and taste.
When planning your home session, try to choose outfits that coordinate with the colors of your home. Pick a couple of rooms that showcase your aesthetic and have space to work with. Don’t overthink it or worry about how to clean or organize, we can work with what you have!
The most important thing to remember is not to compare your home, family or photos to anyone else’s. No one else has a family or life like yours! Embrace your unique and one of a kind home, family and lifestyle. Each a true treasure and miracle ✨

Imagine getting cozy newborn & family photos without having to leave your home 😮
Being a new parent to littles is hard enough, and the pressure we put on ourselves to dress up to the nines and force our family to look happy after rushing to get them ready to drive to an unpredictable location is unrealistic.
What a relief it is to be able document your family in an environment that’s accommodating to your needs. No diaper bags, strollers, iPads or car seats required!
There’s something so special about getting pictures made in your home. The kids are calmer and more comfortable. You’re calmer and more comfortable. No need to apologize for a diaper change or bathroom break. Just you and your family living real life with someone there to capture it in a timeless and beautiful way.
Sure there may be toys on the floor, a basket of laundry and leftovers on the counter. But when you look back at the photos, you’d rather remember the real moments instead of the exhaustion it took to create something nice but forced.
So let’s kick our shoes off at the door, pile up, play and explore the beauty and wonder of your lifestyle at home with those you love most.

I love it when I look at one of my plants and remember when it was just a seedling that I had reared into the soil, loyally watering and tending to it. Looking back and seeing those plants fully grown, its such a rewarding feeling to pick the fruits and veggies from them to sustain me and my family. I wouldn't say I have a green thumb, just an intense care for raw intentionality.
That's my philosophy when it comes to telling your stories. They should be organic, raw, intentional, cared for and known deeply. They should be invested in, cultivated and hand-picked with you in mind in a way that sustains a lasting memory and emotion. In a world of cheaply-made, mass produced pop culture, fabricated stories and excuses for nourishing food, I strive to harvest the timeless, authentic moments of your life and preserve them the most sustainable way possible.
I completed my associate’s degree in mass communication at Walters State Community college in 2014. From there I moved to Cleveland, TN to finish my bachelor’s degree in advertising and minor in photography at Lee University by 2016. Those years were major training ground for me where I developed my shooting and editing style. Since then, I married the man of my dreams and started working by day as a copywriter for a private advertising agency.
Now onto the interesting stuff. I’m a small, quirky and easygoing Tennessee girl with a taste for adventure and a love for food. In my spare time, I'm trying new recipes, thrifting at antique stores, visiting my local farmer's market, writing music and adventuring with my husband and adopted fur baby Gracie. Our little family loves to meet new people, explore what the beautiful southeast has to offer, and to tell the stories of all the wonderful people we meet along the way.
An impactful time for me was when I had the privilege to serve on a missions team in England in 2015 where I was able to pour into the lives of students through music and relationship-building. In that short time, I had to make myself completely vulnerable and share my story of what Christ has done in my life. I quickly learned that’s the best way to connect with others. My life philosophy is to be genuine, authentic and serving because I believe that’s how God uses us to make a difference in the world. Each of us has special gifts and talents that God gives us to use to share his love and grace. That is my mission as a photographer and Christ-follower. I want each person I meet to know that they are loved and important. Each story I have the privilege of telling plays an integral part in this life we live and each one deserves to be told in a beautiful way.
Growing up, I had a lot of insecurities and struggles that made me doubt my value and worth. I quickly compared myself to others and deemed myself as less than, that my story wasn't good enough to be told. I tried to fill that void in empty relationships, vanity, rebellion and addiction and nothing could fulfill the longing in my heart that only Christ could sustain and provide. Some of you may be in the same situation or have recently overcome those strongholds. My journey has led me to a point of grace that is overwhelmingly freeing and I want others to achieve that and celebrate their journeys as well! Photography is an amazing way to document the milestones, achievements and celebrations in your life that deserve a voice. You deserve to have your story told.
That’s where I come back in the picture! (or technically behind it) I would be honored to walk alongside you on your life’s journey, not just as a photographer, but as a friend in Christ. It is my privilege to serve you and tell your story in a special way. I promise I’m not always this serious, but I take my job seriously as well as the stories I tell. But trust me, I can be silly too! Just to prove it, I’m eating a hunk of Gouda cheese as I write this. I look forward to meeting you and celebrating life with you!
