This family session was nothing short of beautiful. From the handcrafted table made my Ashley’s husband, to the stunning outfits, and gorgeous kiddos…. it was a photographers dream. We lucked out with perfect weather, too! Ashley, thank you for trusting me to capture these precious moments for your family.
Sean and Tiffany are good friends of ours. I was happy to change up my normal shoots with an engagement session. It was so much fun working with them. We got the perfect February afternoon weather just by luck! And they brought along their two little dogs for a few shots. We can’t wait for...
I am so honored to help this couple announce something very special… they are expecting! Jen contacted me early to schedule newborn photos. She is due on Christmas Day and wanted to make sure I was available to do them! Then when I had a mini session open up she quickly messaged me to get...
Kathy is a good friend of mine since high school days! She is such a kind person and fun to be around. She has found her soul mate, Dave, and they will be married in Jamaica come February 2014! We had a lot of laughs during their session while walking around town. And although I...
This past weekend I had the absolute pleasure of hanging out with my husband’s co-worker and his fiancé. We went out for lunch and then did a session around the Capitol & Mall. This is a LARGE share because I simply could not narrow down my favorites. We had a great time and it was...
✨ Sneak peek from this morning’s newborn session! ✨
Madison’s baby brother, little Carter, was in the studio today 💙 This sweet boy was such a dream, an amazing sleeper and so adorable! Big sister Madison was so gentle around him, and we captured the most precious photos.
Kara ~ Class of 2026
Saying I enjoyed this session would be an understatement! Kara is truly a breath of fresh air — kind, intelligent, and effortlessly laid-back. She has such a fascinating passion for studying and drawing insects, and I learned quite a bit from her during our time together. The world is a brighter place with this wonderful and talented young lady in it. Best wishes on all your dreams and adventures, Kara.
It’s that time of year again when my growing-way-too-fast children are “happily” volunteered for Christmas photos two months early 🎄
They had so much fun with this one…sprinkling flour, “cracking” eggs, rolling out gingerbread dough, and, of course, sneaking a few cookies along the way! 🍪
I can’t wait to share this year’s Christmas sets with all 110+ amazing kiddos coming through the studio in just a few weeks! Every backdrop, prop, and tiny detail is chosen with so much love and care to create a little holiday magic. This season fills my heart every year, and I’m so excited to capture the joy, laughter, and sparkle of Christmas through my lens once again. ❤️
Tea for Two 🫖💐
Lennon is turning two! We spent the morning capturing her big milestone, and she couldn’t get enough of the little tea set. It made for the cutest portraits and the sweetest memories.
Sometimes you just have to follow the lead of the two year old. Run, play, and roll with it. Realistic expectations usually lead to the best kind of photos: the candid ones, with those genuine smiles that melt your heart.
Little Nara loved the word “no,” but she also loved giving hugs… and I was lucky enough to get two of them myself. What a sweetheart. 🤍
Meet Jack – Class of 2026! 🎓
I had such a great time working with Jack for his senior photos. He was way more natural and photogenic in front of the camera than he gave himself credit for! 📸 He initially agreed to the session for his mama (how sweet is that?) and then he requested a photo with her at the end💙
Let’s be honest, most guys aren’t exactly lining up for photoshoots, but Jack was an absolute trooper and made it fun and easy! He’s also a multi-talented athlete—baseball and archery! ⚾🏹 We even got a few awesome shots with his bow, which made the session extra cool.
It was such a pleasure meeting him and his family. In just a short time, I learned he’s got a big heart…and also, not a fan of bugs. 😄
Newborn Sophia came to the studio today at just 9 days new 🍓 She was the sweetest, sleepiest little doll. Big brother Blake was here for his newborn photos 7 years ago, and now he’s proudly holding his baby sister. Time truly flies in the blink of an eye ✨
⸻
Baby Coast came into the studio today for his newborn session 🤍 He did amazing for his mama’s requests—and just look at how handsome he is! This job is so rewarding in so many ways, and I’m so grateful to capture these timeless, heartfelt moments for families.
Our very first My Dog & Me Minis!
These moments are truly timeless 🤎🤍 Dogs bless our lives for far too short a time, and I feel so grateful to capture the love they share with their favorite humans.

Daytime protector, nighttime snuggler. Forever her boy 🖤 I’m so glad I caught these sweet moments of my oldest two, and I can’t wait to capture more like this for my clients tomorrow.
🌞 “The Summer She Turned 14” 🌊
This year, we celebrated my daughter’s birthday with a beach session inspired by her theme — the summer I turned 14. Golden light, ocean breeze, and all the carefree joy of being fourteen. We also took a moment to capture something even closer to her heart: dance. 🩰 💛
These in-between years — where they’re still our babies but growing into something incredible — deserve to be remembered, celebrated, and frozen in time.
📸 Whether it’s a birthday, a session to honor a passion like dance, or you’re dreaming of senior portraits, now’s the perfect time to start planning.

A beautiful morning spent with this sweet family, celebrating Hank’s big milestone — turning ONE! With those baby blue eyes and blonde hair, he’s just the cutest little guy. He had a blast playing with the cars, though the cake wasn’t quite his favorite part. So many adorable smiles and expressions captured for his gallery!
