Hey y’all! Been a while since I’ve posted anything! Took some time off from shooting as I adjusted to being a mom of 2!

Jumped back in after almost a year off, but photographing my cousins and their beautiful little girls! 😍 it was a hot session with this heatwave but they were troopers and these sneaks came out so good!

Just delivered this beautiful family’s gallery! I absolutely LOVED this session so much! Kristin reached out to me a few weeks before the shoot to let me know they were going to announce to their daughter that she is going to be a big sister! I definitely squealed with joy! Natalie was super excited to find out and meanwhile I cried behind the camera. 😂 I could not be happier and more honored to have photographed my bestie of 25 years and her beautiful family and this special moment. 🩷

I can’t believe in just 2 more days, we will have a TWO YEAR OLD! 🥺

Time truly is such a thief and when I look back at photos of Karley, it just amazes me just how much she has changed since her first picture.

Whether I do photography or not, I will always be a firm believer in taking the picture. There are days where I don’t look my best, but I will always step in to take photos with my family because one day, they will be all she has.

Whether you feel you don’t look your best, want to lose weight before doing a shoot, or whatever it may be holding you back, don’t let it! Don’t let it hold you back from creating memories. ❤️
