I absolutely love getting to work with clothing boutiques and working with Taylor and 9 Grey Horses was such a fun experience.  Kayla and Reid were amazing models and we got to photograph some of their new styles! Here are a few previews!

The photographer/model workshops are so much fun.  We brought in 5 models and 5 photographers.  I work with the photographers and Ashlyn worked with the models. It works perfectly together and we had a blast. The original plan was to do a Classic Cowgirl Photoshoot and start with a covered wagon and horse and buggy […]

I wanted to do a fun cowgirl photoshoot so we wrangled Josie and Lyza together and used my best friends amazing mare (who tolerated them so well) to do a fun photoshoot at sunset.  We maybe only took pictures for like 30 minutes but it always seems like so much longer wrangling kids and horses […]

It’s always fun getting to hang out with the Morrison family.  We did their family pictures on their family farm and it was beautiful! It was the perfect overcast day and a nice warm day for January. Here are a few pictures from their family session.

I was excited to do another photoshoot with Dolly.  She is so chilled and laid back and doesn’t care about to much.  She is an older Amish Belgian draft horse so she’s seen a lot of stuff in her life.  We are excited to have her on the farm! Here are a few previews from […]

When Rylan comes home from school it’s always fun to catch up doing a photoshoot.  The venue, Ellendale Farms, is stunning and has some of the most beautiful sunsets and we were so lucky to get the perfect sunset with such a cool cloud feature. Here are a few pictures from Rylan’s fun photoshoot!

On our last weekend of Christmas carriage rides I love to take my camera and get some pictures of all of the carriages.  We always get to see it from inside the carriage but not what it looks like to other people and it’s so magical. Getting to work for Carolina Carriage Company every year is a […]

It was fun getting to meet the Holcomb family for the first time.  They had all of their family in town and wanted to do some family pictures so they came down to the farm.  We got lucky and had a really pretty December day.  We had such a good time and here are a […]

Each year getting to do the Childers family Christmas pictures is a blast.  Me and Danette have been friends since we were in elementary school. It’s cool that we get to raise our families together.   Here are a few previews from their Christmas pictures.

Bella won a giveaway that I did earlier in the year so I traveled down to Anderson, SC for her photoshoot. That area of South Carolina is so pretty with rolling hills.   Bella is on the Clemson University Equestrian Team so it was cool to meet her horse and see what she gets to do. […]

Halle got some cool Oak & Eden whiskey and wanted to do a cool photoshoot at a bar. I found a bar in our local town and they let us use their bar before they opened for the day. We did some cool video and pictures with the whiskey and it was a lot of fun getting […]

Day 3 we started the morning with a sunrise photoshoot at 6AM with Lyndsey and an old corvette under this gorgeous tree with the mountains surrounding us.  It was more than amazing and when I say Lyndsey is a freak of nature when it comes to modeling.  She knocked this one out of the park. […]
