It’s hard for me to admit that the baby of the family is no longer a baby 😭

I’m so impressed with the amazing woman she’s growing up to be. She’s smart and clever and has a wit and humor I love to be around. She has a great appreciation for others, for good books, for fun and for rest, for family. She’s beautiful inside and out. She loves hard and laughs even harder no🤣 She knows who she is and has an excitement for the future that I envy.

I couldn’t be prouder of my (not so baby) baby sister 🫶

Here’s to senior year, Natalie! You will do incredible things.

Love,
Your big sister

Oh, how He loves us 🫶

Katie and Jacob are the perfect example of trusting in God’s timing. You truly never know when or where you’ll meet your future spouse, but He knows and is laying the path whether we can see it clearly or not.

Them: “Can we walk around our neighborhood and maybe get some ice cream?”

Me: “Heck ya we can!”

What a beautiful evening with these two🍦I’ve known Matthew many years and meeting Victoria last night, everything clicked. These two get each other. The playful jokes, genuine smiles and pure joy just emanated from them. Only two more months until husband and wife 💒

I didn’t realize how much baby #2 would change me. 🙃

Celebrating 6 months with Sam and can’t imagine life without him. Babies of course disrupt sleep and routines, but I wasn’t expecting this baby to push me so far out of my comfort zone and truly help me make a move I’m been dreaming of for years.

I am finally making the jump. Doing the thing. Taking the leap. I’m finally quitting my day job to pursue photography (and mom life) FULL-TIME! 📷

Your support (and Sam’s big smile) has made this possible and I cannot wait to be able to serve my couples and families even better. With that said, my four mini session dates open TOMORROW and all other sessions are open and ready to start booking [link in bio]!

Here’s to a new adventure! Sammy, thanks for the push ❤️

I’ve been to a lot of weddings… and I mean a lot! And somehow, every wedding still finds a way to make me tear up 🥺 It’s that moment of “this is it”! This is the start of something so unique and beautiful. It always catches me by surprise and Ellen and Isaac’s wedding day was no different.

After the vows and a prayerful moment in front of Mary, these two sat down and I saw peace and joy come over their faces. It was so subtle but so sweet. It reminded me what this day was truly all about and how lucky I am to be a part of it. Here’s to many more days and years of that same feeling of peace and joy for the married couple 🥂

I've got good news and not as good news.⁠

The not so great news is that in preparation for baby #2, I'll be wrapping up my 2023 photo season at the end of August. HOWEVER, the good news is, that means we still have several weeks left of this hot, sunny, beautiful summer to capture your cute face and lovely smile! ⁠

Mini Sessions are on August 6th or schedule a date and location that works best for you with a Full or Extended Family Session.⁠

What a joy it has been to see so many of you this summer and I hope I get to see you all before baby arrives this fall. With that said, any and all advice on becoming a family of 4?? Bring it on!

Unprompted moment. Just pure, unconditional love.
