This photo shoot was a blast with Megan, Nick, and their three energetic boys, Theo, Beck, and Colter, who joined me for some delightful watermelon-themed family photos! Megan never runs out of creative ideas for their shoots, and this one was no exception. 🍉📸
As always, it was a joy to see how much the boys have grown. Megan brought along some fun props and fresh watermelon, which, as expected, ended up on a couple of little faces—making for some irresistibly cute and sticky smiles! After the watermelon fun, we took the adventure to the creek, adding some natural play and laughter to their vibrant family photos. 💦😄
These moments are fleeting, but the memories we capture will bring joy for years to come. Thanks, Megan and Nick, for another wonderful photo session!

Jennifer and Mason joined us at Chapel in the Hollow in September 2018, for their sweet elopement. They were beautifully sweet and adorably cute together. I remember that Jennifer made her bouquet and the boutonnieres. They chose one of our forest paths as a ceremony site instead of the chapel, and it was gorgeous with the backdrop of nature.
