Elmo Cake Smash

These two were an absolute joy to capture — so sweet, so full of laughter, and completely in love. They ran and twirled and giggled through the open field framed by dreamy mountain views with the soft, white wild flowers blooming around them. Not only are the mountains a super cool and fun backdrop, we also got to play by the river a little as well!

The most special detail? The ring he designed just for her — with a gemstone he chose because it reminded him of the color of her eyes. 💍😍

Rainy days have their own kind of magic 🌧🦋
This sweet family braved the drizzle for a dreamy outdoor session celebrating their baby girl turning 9 months old! After hanging out with the soft mist in the air and umbrella fun, we snuck indoors for some butterfly vibes. Her little personality, curious eyes, and the way she lit up the cloudy day… absolutely adorable.

Golden light, summer laughter, and the sweetest moments under the willow tree 🌿☀️ This beautiful family session was full of joy, sunshine, and those fleeting in-between moments that make memories last a lifetime. The views of mountains and creek were the perfect backdrop for a session filled with love and connection. I feel like I laughed the whole time watching these two kids run around and climb fences. They are growing so fast!

🌾☀️Golden hour, rolling hills, and two hearts getting ready for forever.
We spent the evening capturing these two on the farm—surrounded by their pups, cattle, and the kind of love that feels right at home.
There’s something special about telling a love story where it all will soon begin at their home together.☀️🌾

Swipe to see the magic of this sunset session!

Finley turned 2!! We did a super cutesy outdoor picnic tea party with her and her animals! This little girl is such a doll baby and boy is she smart! I had so much fun with her and love getting to see her grow!

Still dreaming about this beautiful spring wedding from a couple of weeks ago 💐✨⁠
The azaleas were in full bloom, adding the most magical pop of color to the day. Right as we finished portraits, the skies opened up—cue a spontaneous dash through the rain! 🌧️ But honestly, it just added to the romance and fun of the day!
⁠
Surrounded by their closest family and friends, these two said "I do" with the groom's father as the officiant. It was such a gorgeous day and tons of fun dancing that evening. 💍💕

The youngest little Lamb turned one! I cannot believe how fast time has flown by! How adorable is she?! I love that she decided to go in face-first like her older sister did at her cake smash!

I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day weekend! It was absolutely gorgeous.
Today is an office day for me, as the rain wants to reschedule my shoots again! That's ok, though! I'll take the rain if it helps get rid of all this pollen. So I'll be running errands, editing photos and responding to messages and emails. Let me know if you want to schedule with me!

I had the honor of capturing the sweetest “I do”s on a perfect spring day with the most amazing couple! From the heartfelt and silly-sweet ceremony in front of gorgeous mountains to laughter-filled moments with loved ones—and that golden sunset finale? Just amazing!
A celebration of love, faith, and fun that I won’t soon forget. And the food was amazing!!! Love a great taco bar selection!

Spent an early spring evening capturing love that’s been growing for years. We wandered through the family farm and met up with cows as curious guests, willow trees dancing in the breeze, and the mountains always in the background. I so enjoyed my time with these two and learned so much about a local Greene County family history/farm. :)

There’s something special about photographing love where it feels most at home.

These two were back in front of my lens — and this time, under the soft glow of a moody spring sky.
We talked and walked and dodged a snake....but it was worth it! The overcast light gave us the most romantic tones.

Love is blooming! 🌼 🌸 Had the sweetest time capturing this gorgeous couple's engagement at the dreamiest springtime venue, complete with daffodils and sunshine. Can’t wait for their big day! 🌿🌷

A spring day full of grace, love, fun and Ice Cream.

I absolutely loved the elegance and blue tones woven through every detail, from the florals to the decor. Anna & Drew said “I do” surrounded by beauty and faith. Witnessing their cord-tying ceremony and first communion as husband and wife was a sacred honor to capture — a reflection of a love rooted in Christ.

Grateful to be part of such a meaningful, joy-filled day.
