Fleurish Greenhouse in full bloom.
Wildflowers stretching into late summer light.
Every corner alive with color and quiet movement.
Caitlin’s bridals felt calm, intentional — the kind of beauty that doesn’t ask for attention, it just exists.

✨ HAPPY OCTOBER ✨

Busy season has officially arrived!

I’m beyond grateful to have 33 sessions booked this month along with 4 weddings (one is a double-header!) 😍

Please know I’m editing galleries and previews as quickly as possible. I try to check emails and messages in the mornings before diving into editing, but if I ever miss your note, a gentle double-message is actually super helpful!

Balancing life as a full-time mama to our family of five and running a full-time business can feel daunting at times. But every season I pray for God’s wisdom and guidance—to do the very best work for each and every client.

I promise to treat your wedding, session, or event as if it were my own.

The coast has a way of setting the tone.

Atlantic Beach stretching wide behind them, this couple gathered more than 100 of their favorite people for a destination wedding that felt as effortless as it was refined.

With a bridal party that filled the shoreline, family and friends who traveled miles to be there, and even their dogs by their side — every detail spoke to what mattered most. The light on the beach was flawless, giving us portraits that feel timeless and editorial in the best way.

Here’s a glimpse into a day that was equal parts celebration and art. ✨

Congratulations Mr. + Mrs. Faust

Golden hour in the countryside, soft neutrals, and the sweetest family of five ✨

The Howell family joined me for a mini session last week, and their love and joy together were so effortless to capture. Between the giggles, little curls catching the sunlight, and that baby grin that could light up a whole cornfield—these are the moments I live for behind the lens.

Every season is worth remembering, but there’s something about this time of year—the warmth, the glow, the coziness—that feels extra special when preserved in photographs.

So grateful to have documented this beautiful family and the season they’re in right now. 🍂

✨ A Few Updates ✨

I am officially SOLD OUT for sessions until mid-November. Thank you all so much for keeping me busy doing what I love! 🖤

I’m currently refreshing my booking site to reflect my true calendar. Between reschedules and wedding clients who book directly with me, some dates may have looked available when they weren’t—thank you for your patience and understanding.

At this time, I will not be offering Christmas minis. If I’m able to complete my editing queue early, I may open up something last-minute, but for now I want to set clear expectations.

Any new inquiries that requested a date between now and October will be contacted directly by email to arrange a new session date.

As always, I am so grateful for every single client who trusts me with their memories. Your support means the world.

🍁 Limited October dates

Every September, Rocky Face bursts into fields of golden blooms — and they only last a couple of weeks. Last year these sessions sold out in record time, and for good reason: the soft light, the wildflower backdrop, and the magic that happens when families, couples, and littles soak it all in. 🌼

This year, I’m offering ONE session per day so that you get the most flattering light and the best possible images (trust me, it’s worth it). Think of it as more than a mini — these are 30–45 minute sessions, delivering a full gallery of 25 timeless images you’ll treasure forever.

📸 $200 | $100 retainer to book
📍 Rocky Face Park
🗓 Late September (very limited spots!)

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to update your family photos, celebrate a milestone, or just capture this fleeting season — this is it.

👉 Drop a 💛 below if you want the booking link sent straight to your inbox. These will be gone before the blooms fade!

Gretchen & Justin’s day at Fussell Estate View was the perfect blend of southern charm and timeless elegance 🤍 Soft blues, creamy whites, and the dreamiest florals set the scene for a celebration that was both stunning and heartfelt.

From the sweeping grounds to the chandelier-lit reception, every detail felt like it belonged in a classic southern love story. ✨

2026 wedding dates are booking quickly — if you’re dreaming of a day like this, let’s make it happen.

From family to growing family — it’s been such an honor to capture every chapter of their journey. Tonight at Brown Mountain Beach, we wrapped their maternity session in the most fitting way… wading into the cool water as the sun dipped low. Soon, they’ll be bringing another beautiful soul into the world, and I can’t wait to meet them

Rocky Face Minis — Limited September Bloom Sessions

Every year, for just a short window in late September, Rocky Face bursts into life with breathtaking yellow blooms — and they never last long. These sessions are timed perfectly to capture the golden glow and vibrant color of this fleeting season.

Because this location has very little shade, I’m opening only ONE spot per day to guarantee the best light and the most stunning images possible.

$200 | 30–45 minute session | 25 fully edited images (50% deposit required to reserve your date)

Think of it as a “super mini” — longer than a typical mini, with enough time for multiple poses, and a relaxed, natural flow. These sold out quickly last year, and with such limited availability, they won’t last long this year either.

📅 Booking now for late September — secure your golden hour spot today!
