My son turned 13 today! My baby.

Does anyone know of any reputable companies/people who do data recovery for external hard drives? I have 4 clients waiting on photos, most of which were edited, that are all on a hard drive that worked at the beginning of the day yesterday (could have been signs it was on it's way to death) and then BAM, something corrupted and I cannot access ANY images or files on my hard drive at all now. An entire year's worth of blood, sweat, and tears - and I can't access any of my own or other's memories. 20+ weddings, just all of my work.

HELP!

PS, going forward, as things are looking up financially, I will be able to start saving my work on multiple different servers/hard drives. Just couldn't afford it for several years and have been trying to make do with current circumstances.

My website provider recently changed their storage policy. SO, I had to start over (deleted thousands of photos) from my website. Today and yesterday I've been putting it back together, but as always, felt like adding new media! Here is a sampling of the wedding I did back in June in Iowa. Megan and Jared were lovely! Their families welcomed me in for the day and I had such a great time. I love traveling, even if it's just across the Midwest.

Happy Anniversary to Michele and Chris Durham! I'm still very thankful you chose me to capture such a meaningful day in your lives. 1 year down. A lifetime to go!

A few more of Alara's fall session yesterday. Just spending a few minutes here and there on these right now as I have a family session I'm also working to finish. But I HAD to share these!!! It's never, ever too late to schedule your senior's photo session. (Unless they're 32...lol).

Happy Fall Y'all!!!

When I work as an independent contractor for weddings, I can't share the photos for 3 months. It's high time to share this wedding at The Hilltop in Odessa. Such a precious couple and I love that I was chosen to capture their special day. Alyzabeth and Bryce were so fun and the joining of their two families was a true pleasure to witness. I wish you both all of the love and peace you deserve in this life.

Why did facebook take away the polling option? Well, since I can't make a poll anymore, let us do an informal one here.

Who is interested in a Tree Farm Session? This wouldn't be until late November or early December, but I would guarantee photos by mid December. Please comment below if interested!!!

Why is storage so dang expensive guys?!?!? I'm (again) trying to make my website work with the massive amount of space photos take up. I made these collages in photoshop with some of my work as it will *hopefully* save some space and I won't have to upgrade to $2000 a year!! LIKE WHAT (X_X)

My 2024 wedding season is pretty full through my contract work, but 2025 is still pretty open (except for June). Message me today to book your 2025 wedding or engagement!
