Capturing these moments of a growing family just hits differently. Maternity photos are such a beautiful way to freeze a moment in time—full of love, anticipation, and the excitement of what’s to come. They tell a story that will be cherished for years to come. So grateful to be a part of this sacred journey.

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted and shown up here. I haven’t had much to say. Nothing seemed worthy or important to share while feeling so broken and walking through such a tragic loss, losing my mom so suddenly.

Truth is, I hated coming on here and seeing life go on as usual while my world was crumbling beneath my feet and I felt so broken. It just didn’t seem right or fair.

I’ve been clinging to Jesus. I’ve been spending my mornings in prayer, mostly crying my heart out to Lord, journaling, and surrendering all the pain at the feet of Jesus. It’s too much for me to carry. One of the wisest things someone ever said to me in grief was that time doesn’t heal, only Jesus does.

He is our surpassing love, joy, peace, hope, and comfort. “He is close to the brokenhearted. He saves those crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18

I know that God didn’t cause her to get sick. He is not the author of sickness and disease. But He will use that pain and brokenness and turn it into something good. He is always working for our good. He will bring beauty from the ashes. I know that full well.

Slowly, the huge gaping hole in my heart is healing. Day by day it’s slowly being mended. Unexpected joy has been able to coexist with immense grief and sadness. Only by the grace of God.

Piece by piece He is mending my broken heart. A part of my heart and soul will forever be missing this side of heaven. But thank you Jesus for loving me, drawing near to me, carrying me through this unbearable pain, and thank you most of all for this being just a temporary separation. That is the greatest gift of all.

3 years of NC living! ☀️🌊 This coastal gem captured my heart from day one. Can’t believe it’s been that long since we first visited this stunning coastal town and fell head over heels. After visiting several potential places to live, it felt like a dream come true! So grateful for this incredible journey and for calling North Carolina home. ❤️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Looking back through our first family photos here by my girl and they are some of my favorites! And dang it’s a beautiful reminder of why it’s so important to capture family photos annually. The boys have grown so much bigger since then 😭

It’s never too late to capture your baby at any stage.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we met for her gallery reveal and design appointment, mom shared with me how heartbroken she was when her newborn photographer had to cancel due to pneumonia and how she always regretted not having them taken. She never imagined doing a 6 month milestone session instead, but now she can’t believe how perfect it turned out. Sometimes things don’t work out how we want them to, but there’s truly something so beautiful about each stage of your babyhood. Seeing mom’s eyes light up as she talked about how much these photos mean to her and how she’ll cherish these memories forever means the world to me.

We all have them - thousands upon thousands of photos on our phones. Sure, they’re easily accessible, but are they truly alive?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Scrolling past them on a tiny screen feels fleeting, impersonal. Your memories deserve more. They deserve to be celebrated, not buried.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Phones hold convenience, but walls hold presence. Let us help bring your memories to life!
