Tyler & Trinity’s wedding was just breathtaking. A warm, sunny October day. ❤️

I met these two earlier this summer, they drove so far to come to my beach minis to have some family photos done. Recently engaged with the cutest lil baby boy - who btw was the sweetest most calm lil man I think I’ve photographed thus far. Since that day Trinity and I stayed in touch. I was thrilled when they asked me to photograph their day. Their engagement session from August is still one of my favs I’ve ever done!

Upon arrival to the venue I couldn’t believe how well thought out and how gorgeous their day turned out to be! It was a shock that they had only been planning a few short months! It’s been wonderful getting to know Trinity over the few months we’ve known each other. I had a blast photographing their day. What a day to remember! ❤️

If you are looking for a barn style venue for your wedding I highly recommend . I had the chance to stay and chat with the owner, Amanda after the wedding. We had a wonderful conversation. I had the opportunity to learn about the venue. Her husband Jon has worked endlessly to ensure the utmost quality for all events held here. Family operated and so well accommodating for all your event needs. ❤️

Oh how I am going to miss the fall colors when they’re gone!!
Haley, Braxton & Zuko for another fall post 🥰

I adore photographing Haley&Braxton!! This is our second time working together and each time is such a blast, and honestly never last long enough! I could spend all day with them! They have the kindest souls and bring so much joy to our sessions. This time they brought their baby, Zuko with them and it was obvious he fit well with their little family. 🥹 he is adorable and extremely photogenic!!

If you needed a sign to bring your pup to your session, this should be it!! 🥹❤️

I have a few November dates available!! Don’t miss your chance to snag them before the fall colors are gone!

One thing I’ve been focusing really hard on this year is flat lays for detailed photos. I’ve struggled so hard in the past with over thinking how they look, not getting good lighting, not lining things up to where they make sense in my brain, I could go on and on.

I’m here to announce that I think something has finally clicked in my brain to wear everything is flowing better. Giving myself more time at weddings for the brides that want flat lays has helped tremendously. Plus adding to my detailed photo props has helped as well. Playing with different lighting situations has been SO much fun! I knew exactly where I wanted to set up at for these shots as soon as I walked into this venue.

To say the least, I’m obsessed with how these turned out! ✨

The Triana Family ✨

My last fall mini session for the year! I had such a wonderful time creating memories with all the families that allowed me to create with them.

For the Triana family, this was their first ever photo session! Honestly, you wouldn’t have even guessed because they did amazing!! We had such a fun time together. Playing in the grasses and letting their little one take some time to get to know me. She was definitely a little unsure, but of course she was smiling by the end. It is so rewarding to have kids get comfortable with me around when the last thing I’m sure they want to do is take photos.

Im already looking forward to next years fall minis and I can’t wait to show you guys more of what we all created. 🥰🫶🏼

Rachel & Anthony 💜

The day may have been gloomy and windy, but their love made magic and turned the gloom to beauty. We all made the best of the weather and were thankful it stayed dry! (Besides the joyful tears of course) It was such an honor to capture their day. 🫶🏼

Are crooked photos the new trend again?! 🫣 it feels wrong to include crooked photos in galleries!! But I definitely think they’re kind cute 😬😂

A fall baby announcement. 🍂🍁

I wish I could explain to you guys the awe I had when we got in the 4 x 4 and climbed up the hills through Jaley’s grandparents backyard. The beauty God created when he made all things. is breathtaking. The hills, the fields of grasses, the colorful trees. I could have jumped for joy!!! I Immediately knew where we should stop at as soon as we passed. It was perfect. He made all things perfect. Same as He will do for this newest family member. Baby Enfield. Gavin and Jaley are going to be the best parents. 🥹❤️

One thing about me is I love nature. I love hiking and kayaking. I love spending my free time in nature. It makes me feel grounded. This was just what I needed in my busiest season. Nature makes time slow down for me.

I’m feeling so blessed lately 🫶🏼

Part one of Gavin & Jaley’s Baby Announcement 🥹

Zayhn and I are gunna be an uncle & aunt!! We are so excited for baby to arrive and we cannot wait for the Enfield family to grow more. 😭❤️

Gavin and Jaley reached out to me shortly after finding out they were pregnant for this announcement shoot! I have been DYING to do a clothes line maternity session for about two years now and I just knew they would be absolutely perfect for my idea to come to life!! They did not disappoint!! From the fall colors peaking out in the distance to the fact we were on Jaley’s grandparents property everything about this was just too perfect to be real. I cannot wait to show you all part two! 🥰
