Olivia~ Senior Portrait Session
I absolutely loved this senior session! Olivia is stunning and she made my job easy! Loved getting to know her and capture this exciting season of her life! 😊
Brent + Laken ~Vow Renewal
Wow this was a beautiful day! Celebrating 10 years of God’s faithfulness and restoration in their marriage, Brent and Laken renewed their vows on September 8th, 2022! Ten years ago they received Polaroids as the only way their day had been captured. I was so honored to get to capture this special day, which was even sweeter then the first one in a lot of ways! I am so excited to share with them the wedding gallery that they never had! Brent and Laken are both now followers of the Lord Jesus Christ and they honored Him so well as they renewed their vows and shared their story of God’s faithfulness in their lives, individually, and as a couple! It really was so special to be a part of this day for Brent and Laken! God is so so kind!
I’m forever thankful for these sweet friends and their testimony to God’s grace and lovingkindness!

Chris + Grace ~Engament Session
Loved getting to be a part of capturing special memories for Chris and Grace! Grace and I had talked a little bit over text before the session and we realized that we had met before. So I showed up to the session we chatted a little but and then later on I had several random memories of us having been in the same place at the same time, on several different occasions. Needless to say, I was a little late on clueing in 😉
Chris and Grace were a lot of fun and once they got warmed up they were killing it! I always love getting to watch couple interact and have fun together at a session!

Rebekah~ Portrait Session
This post is a reminder to go on an adventure! Don’t be afraid to go somewhere you’ve never gone before or blaze a new trail through the woods. There’s always fun to be found and memories to be made on new adventures!
“The Road goes ever on and on down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, and I must follow, if I can” –J.R.R. Tolkien
“Still round the corner there may wait a new road or a secret gate, and though I oft have passed them by, a day will come at last when I shall take the hidden paths that run west of the moon, east of the sun.”

Remi~ Portrait Session
This was magical!
I remember when I was a child and how I saw so much wonder I the world. Just “normal” every day sort of things are magical to kids…but then we grow up, get busy, and we forget what it’s like to see the wonder in the world!
The amazing things we used to be shocked at become boring, normal, or just completely ignored because they are things we see every day. I want to help people reboot their eyes to see the wonder of the everyday things! Something I’ve grown to love so much about what I do, is getting to get people to see things differently…showing them the beauty of light reflecting on the water, or of light filtering through golden leaves, being able to show the beauty of life in every season!
All of creation shouts the praises of God! Each individual created thing shows a different aspect of God’s creative hand that it is always singing praises of. Just open your eyes, step outside and watch the everyday miracles that surround you!
Thanks again for tagging along!

The Madding’s~ Family Session
I so loved doing this family session! This is one of my favorite family sessions to date! The flowers were perfect! I accidentally sent the wrong address so they ended up at the wrong place and were 20 minutes away with barely any time before sunset …but we worked fast and got a beautiful gallery in 20 minutes. (that was a close one 😉)
One of my favorite things about family sessions is getting to watch everyone interact and laugh with each other. And I love getting to watch those who aren’t so comfortable getting their photo taken, get super great at it by the end 😊
Thanks for tagging along!
