Those just engaged feels.🥹❤

I had the pleasure of working with these two while they are visiting from New Hampshire! They are too cute, I couldn't resist editing a handful from their session as soon as I got home. So glad I decided to leave the house and freeze for these, the snow was worth it.😍

This isn’t my normal content, but this is very important to me. This family has been with me since the VERY beginning. Back when I was a teenager with a little point and shoot camera, just trying to find my way. They were some of my first clients, and they have supported me at every point in my photography journey. They are just the kindest folk, and they are going through a very difficult time. Their rock, the best Dad and husband, Dustin, was recently admitted to the hospital for a tumor on his spine. They were able to remove some, but not all. During his stay, he’s been through cardiac arrest, resuscitation, cracked ribs, and more. He is now left immobilized, in so much pain, and fighting for his life. He is being transferred to Barnes as we speak.😭 They’ve missed so much work, and the bills are stacking up as they navigate through this difficult situation.

Please, if you can send them support, kind words, or thoughts of healing during this time, it would mean the world to not only them, but to me as well. They deserve all the good the world has to offer.🥺

4 years since going somewhat viral, and it’s been a chaotic rollercoaster ever since.😂 Thankful for the growth in my work and my career, and for all the support from all over the world.

These two have since gotten engaged, married, bought a house, and had a baby. So glad they got their happily ever after.🥺

I’m curious, who all found me because of this post?👀

‼️ PAY WHAT YOU CAN MINI SESSIONS HAVE BEEN RESCHEDULED TO FEBRUARY 23RD‼️

There is already a layer of snow, and many clients emailed me over the past few days saying they are sick, so I am deciding this is the best option. I’d rather be safe than sorry, and I’d hate for anyone to miss out. Emails were sent out with information regarding this change.

Please stay inside today if you can, and enjoy the snow day! Stay safe and warm!❤️

How I'm feeling about a potential snow day and not having to leave my house. Anyone else?😂

Anyway, the real reason I'm here is to say that there is a high possibility I will be rescheduling ALL sessions (including the Pay What You Can mini sessions at the studio) for tomorrow due to the possible snow storm. If this does happen, the reschedule date will be February 23rd. I have already sent out emails stating this, and will send another round of emails as well as posting an update here in the morning around 8:00 a.m. if that is the case.

My main priority is the safety of my clients, and many are traveling in from out of town for these. I would hate to see anything happen to any of you, so please be patient with me if this is a call I need to make. Sending you all warm vibes! Please stay safe out there!❤

✨PAY WHAT YOU CAN STUDIO MINI SESSIONS✨

Wow, I cannot believe there are still EIGHT spots remaining!

Here’s the details; I’m offering a pay what you can mini session day on January 5th at the studio! There is a $40 minimum, which will be collected at booking. Upon arrival, you will be given a blank envelope to "Pay What You Can" as an additional tip and put the envelope into a box, please bring cash for this. I will check these at the end of the day, so they will be completely anonymous. You can tip at checkout if you would like also, but this will not be anonymous! Setup will be minimalistic with a white wall as pictured!

Happy New Year!🥳

What a blessing 2024 has been for me. I've had the pleasure of working with so many amazing humans this year! I captured;

90 Mini Sessions
33 Weddings and Elopements
160 Standard Sessions

If you were one of those humans, I want you to drop your favorite image taken by me this year!👇

Thank you for being the best part of my journey. I am so grateful to have captured so many love stories, smiles, and unforgettable moments. Thank you to everyone who trusted me with their memories; your support fuels my passion and creativity! Cheers to another incredible year, I cannot wait to share another one with you all!❤

And if you're also feeling generous, leave me some kind words about our 2024 session on FB or Google so I can end the year on a good note:

Time for a December recap and a photo dump!☺️ I can't believe the year is over, but I'm very proud of keeping up with these posts for a FULL year. It's helped me a lot to open up more to my clients so I feel like a person rather than a service, and it's also made me romanticize life more. Finding the joy in life over this past year has given me more purpose, and my heart is so full.❤

✨Business Highlights✨
• Photographed 2 elopements, 1 bo***ir, 2 couples/engagements, 4 newborns, 2 families, 8 Christmas Mini Sessions, and had 1 studio rental!
• Sent one Nikon and my fave 24-70 lens out for repair (still crying waiting to be reunited).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Personal Highlights✨
• Christmas pictures with Jesse.
• Ate way too much chili (and tons of other delicious foods).😂
• Korbyn came home and stayed with us for a week! He's an Army Sergeant, so any extra time with him home is valuable.
• Annual Ugly Sweater Christmas party! The only party I ever really host. This year had the biggest turn out, and it was amazing to be surrounded by so many of my favorite people.❤
• Celebrated my Dad's birthday with Monical's and gifts.
• Christkindlmrkt with mom, Nev, Chayne, and Cort. It was my first time going, and it definitely felt like something out of a movie.
• Sibling hang outs. We had breakfast at Denny's, a game night, and of course, our yearly Christmas Eve. sibling sleepover. I'm not sure how many years of this we have left, but we've been doing it since I was 18, living in my first apartment, and now I'm 30. It's my favorite day of the whole year.
• Spent time with family for the holidays. We had an ornament painting contest, ate a soup buffet and lots of cookies. I also made hot cocoa and we watched some Christmas movies.
• Got sick and stayed home for a week (pt. 2 because this happened last month😭)
• Friendsmas! Our little circle got together to exchange gifts, play charades and Jackbox, and eat good food.
• Spent what little spare time cuddled up with Pika while listening to podcasts or audiobooks and editing.

I hope everyone had the BEST 2024! Even if you just survived, I'm SO proud of you.❤

Here's some quick updates/reminders:

✨Brown Mahaffey Elopement✨

The sweetest day for these lovebirds. They exchanged vows in front of their immediate family at the courthouse and celebrated with a nice lunch at a local spot. Perfectly lowkey, just like they envisioned. Here's to a lifetime of happiness.❤

Ollie is finally here, and home from the NICU, which means I FINALLY got to meet the little squish and get in some baby snuggles.🥹 I'm sure this one will end up with just as much s***k and personality as his parents and sister, and I can't wait to watch him grow.❤

✨Haley + Seth✨

I'm obsessing over these, and wishing it was already their wedding day.😍

This session was a little more special since it was the first session Nev directed and shot *mostly* alone. I still stepped in for minor adjustments and to take the same shots, but she did so good, I didn't even really have to. I have loved watching her growth since she started working with me.🥹

I can't wait to see what the next year holds as she starts to take on more sessions. Plus I'm excited to have a replacement to send in if I'm ever sick.😂 Anyway, enjoy these pictures taken by Nev of her bestie and her bestie's soulmate, and scroll to the end to see her behind the scenes. Leave her a little encouragement if you're feeling generous.❤

Anyone else feel like the Fall was way too short? It was summer forever, the leaves barely changed, then winter came out of nowhere and the trees were dead.😩 At least the short in between was pretty with a little bit of editing help.😂 Anyway, enjoy these pictures of these cuties.❤
