It’s with the most joy that I celebrate the birth of one of my very best friend’s little boys: Noah! I had the honor of recently capturing Amanda in all her beautiful pregnant mama glory & goodness, she is stunning. Amanda and I lived together in college… we’ve spent quite a bit of time together […]

This past year has been quite a whirlwind. We found out we were pregnant with our sweet Oliver almost exactly a year ago, so as we’re nearing the 6-month birthday of our baby boy, I’m loving going through the archives to share some of my favorite shoots from 2018. This one was particularly special – […]

Uprooting your life for a move is difficult. Doing that when you’re an entrepreneur with a geographically based business is even harder. It can feel super intimidating to build a business in a new city. And even if you’re not navigating those waters, finding creative ways to grow and thrive in business right where you […]

It’s hard to believe it, but Oliver is officially 4 months old. What a darling little boy he is! Time is FLYING! I can’t even believe we’re already out of the “Fourth Trimester.” He’s just shy of 13 pounds, over double his birth weight (5 lbs 5 ozs)… and nearing triple! And goodness, I couldn’t be […]

It was exhausting. In fact, when I first met with our financial planners and they asked me to break down the percentage […]

If you’ve spent a single minute in Megan Martin‘s presence or experienced even a tiny bit of her genius, you know she is something special. In our friend group, we affectionately call her the Creative Unicorn because she has some kind of crazy array of talents and skills and expertise that can wow just about […]

The first interaction I had with Deeann Rieves was years ago while photographing the Gather Workshop, an amazing workshop led by the incredible Mattie of Green Tie Studio and Kaitie of Kaitie Bryant Photography. Britt Bass was leading a session on painting, and I was roaming around the workshop, capturing attendees getting their hands dirty […]

It’s officially been a year since launching my new website redesign on the Showit platform. It had been a long, long time coming. So long, in fact, that by the time I launched a new site I had been offering services to clients that my old website only mentioned in a single paragraph for over […]

When you have the opportunity to see people walk through new seasons of life, it’s super special. It’s even MORE special when you have had the chance to capture each previous season… AND those people have become sweet friends as well. Haley and Daniel are that perfect example – from their Augusta, GA engagement session (featuring […]
