Nanny’s 92nd Birthday Its so hard to believe that my grandmother is 92 years young.  This lady has been the foundation of our family and still is to this day.  Growing up we would ride the bus to her house, play in the creek, and break green beans while watching the price is right.  The […]

Parachute Dress Teagan was the very last parachute dress photoshoot of the weekend and the sunset was perfect down in the woods.  She’s always basically been like my little sister (she really is my cousin) and it was so much fun to let her put the dress on and do a short little photoshoot to […]

I’m trying to post a lot more personal stuff on here so that you guys can get to know me better and see parts of my life that I don’t share a ton of.  Some of it will be real and raw and other parts light hearted. It’s hard to believe it’s been 7 years […]

Parachute Dress Cassidy is an amazing equine photographer from Charlotte, be sure to check out her work here. She is super laid back and a ton of fun to work with.  She wanted to do a shoot with her sweet pony Annie.  Annie is everything and more when you meet her in person.  I really […]

Being Plus Size This is something that I don’t talk about but it’s something that has always been in the back of my mind.  It’s not easy to talk about because these are real feelings that I’ve faced all of my life, but I know that there are other people out there that feel the […]

Parachute Dress If you think you recognize Kristal, you do.  She was just in a recent farm session that I did.  She wanted to help that day and to have her picture taken in the dress and I was like YES.  She was one of the amazing girls that helped pull of Abby’s shoot.  This […]

Parachute Dress The original idea for this parachute dress first came to light when I saw an image of one on instagram and I was like OMG I need to do this.  It sparked an interest in me and I knew I had to do it.  I immediately went to Google and started looking for […]

Parachute Dress I saw someone on instagram that had made a parachute dress and then did a photoshoot with it on horse back and my mind was blown.  It was one of the prettiest things I had ever seen so I went on the hunt for a parachute dress and I found one for rent. […]

Class of 2020 I can’t believe that my little cousin Teagan is turning 18 and is graduating this year.  I remember when she was born and watching her grow up has been the best thing.  She has basically been like a little sister and it makes me feel so old but I’m so proud of […]

50 years as Choir Director Growing up my family for many generations has gone to the same church, Antioch Baptist Church. My aunt has been the choir director there for over 50 years and before her it was her father in law.  One thing that my dad’s side of the family was blessed with was […]

My Best Friend is Pregnant My best friend came home in October so she could visit before Christmas.  It wasn’t anything out of the normal because she normally comes home a few times a year.  So one evening me and Lyza took off up the mountain to spend the afternoon with Michaela and Fred.  When […]

Molasses Making Molasses making is becoming a lost art.  It takes a lot of work from growing the cane, stripping it, cooking the molasses down to canning it.  Our good friend Aaron has grown up around molasses making his entire life.  As a little boy he watched his neighbors do it and every year he […]

Merry Christmas to everyone and all of your friends! This year has been a year of huge changes and we are so happy with how life has turned out.  We welcomed Lyza Jane into our lives in June and life has been the best ever since.  This year will be her first Christmas and we […]

It seems like a lot of people are scared of social media.  They are scared to show their face because they don’t want to be judged. It is really scary putting your face out there but people want to get to know who you are as a person. Running a business this is something that […]

  Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. Proverbs 13:20 +You become wise by doing life with the wise +Wisdom is contagious. Wisdom rubs off +Walk with = do life with +Wise people understand that life is connected and they live/act accordingly. Today’s decisions are connected to […]

One Month Old How has time flown by so much.  It feels like you are only one week old not one month old.  Post pregnancy the recovery was pretty hard.  A c-section is painful to recover from because the doctor tells you not to lift more than ten pounds but my child was 9lbs and […]

After carrying Lyza for ten months I was more than ready to get her out.  As her due date got closer I was more and more excited and ready for her to make her appearance.  Then her due date came and went and each day I became more moody and miserable.  I was ready to […]

Saddle Leather Work Saddle repair is a long lost trade that has faded off and isn’t as popular as it used to be because horses are not our main source of travel.  People still ride for fun or competition so saddle repair is still needed to an extent but not like it once was.  Chris’s […]
