Lyza and Josie were such fun models for their photoshoot.  We kind of planned it on a whim and they both ended up with the same dress which was really cute.  Dolly and Gus were troopers putting up with these two crazy little girls but it was totally worth it to get some fun pictures […]

It’s been cool following her during her horse journey and growing so much in her horsemanship. For her senior pictures she of course wanted to do some with her horse and her truck! Here are a […]

So funny story with Ambry and John’s engagement session. I was going to be doing their wedding in Texas later in the year, and we were trying to figure out when to do their engagement session. One day, I was flipping through TikTok and saw that they were flying into Georgia. I was like “OMG how […]

After a 12 hour drive we finally made it to Canon Beach and it looked just like a picture.  I had always seen pictures of it online and wanted to visit.  It was chilly, families were hanging out on the beach with fires, the water was freezing but we still pushed through and started shooting. […]
