Dear Algorithm, please connect me with other mamas who keep dino nuggies on weekly dinner rotation and like a crispy Coke to push through evening bed time routines after working all day on her amazing small business. 🥹🤍🫶

(And it would be really really cool if the mamas were also a weird little art-alt punk kid growing up like me and love all things creative…and are legitimately so funny)

Where my girlies at?! 👀

01. Your kid’s nap time matters more to me than golden hour when it comes to your photos.
Happy, smiling and rested babies are better than any sunset!

02. Mental health is a legitimate reason to postpone a session.
I will always reschedule you if you don’t feel ‘ready’ to face the camera that day with your family. Never feel bad for letting me know it’s just not a good day.

03. There is no shame in the bribe. 😅
Treats, Candy, Chocolate; if you tell your kid they get something for getting through the session I will help you hype that up so hard. And you better get some too!

04. No gallery photo limits, ever. If I took the photo and I like it, I edit the photo and it goes to you.
These are your family memories and I will never gatekeep them for the sake of making a $ or perceived efficiency.

05. Print your photos.
It doesn’t have to be a huge wall canvas. Heck, you could get a bunch of 4x6 prints from Walgreens and make a collage. Just print them and put them somewhere, THEY ARE YOURS!

06. Your best photos can be at home in the mess.
You never need to clean up before I come over for a session. I know what a home with a newborn actually looks like, and I know it ain’t always pretty 😅 We will get great photos regardless, I promise.

Photographers, what are your hills? And can I get an amen to some of these?!

A little girl to give butterfly kisses to. 🦋

There’s just something so precious about baby girls. I’m convinced God pours a little extra sweetness into each one. 🥹

You, me and your beautiful family on the beach! ☀️🌊🏝️

A 20 person family session was my biggest in a while, but I loved getting to hang out with this beautiful bunch! Always thankful for my friends who become clients and now we get to hangout together and take all the pretty pictures. 🥰 Best job ever!

One day, this will be someone’s favorite photo of you.

Not because your hair was perfect.
Not because everyone was smiling at the camera.

But because it was you.
In t h i s season.
Unposed, but perfectly you.

Years from now, they won’t see flaws.
They’ll see h o m e.

Book the session. 🤍

My photography hottake (and just wedding vendor overall)? Luxury weddings happen in small churches, backyards and reception halls.

It’s not the price tag - it’s love and the couple’s vision for their day that create the lux experience.

I’ve captured weddings from all sorts of budgets, and the best ones are where I walk away knowing my couples are RICH in love, because everyone else feels it too. 🤍

Since photography isn’t my full-time thing, I don’t normally take weekday sessions unless it’s something extra special, like a proposal!

N + B got engaged at Washington Oaks State Park on the most GORGEOUS weather day possible!! if you wanna see more of their stunning proposal, check out the post on my grid 🥰☀️

Come with me to shoot some getting ready shots with the Mother of the Bride and her baby! 😍

These were shot on my Canon r6 with a 24-70mm lens, with the most beautiful natural light!

Getting ready shots are some of my favorites! It’s a slower part of the day before the ceremony and family photos commence. 🥹

It’s easier to get one kid looking and smiling at a time than getting the whole group to look in the same direction!

I used to sweat sessions with a lot of littles, but instead of taking tons of pictures of the whole group to hopefully get one of everyone looking (and wearing out all the adults to get smiles) this is what I do instead!:

✦ Pick a location for the group shot and have every kiddo in it, smiling or not!

✦ Then, have each little stand for their own solo picture, in the same group photo spot (this ensures lighting is the same)

✦ After your session, bring your group photo and solo photos into photoshop and use any selection method to copy/paste the smiling pics over the ones in the group picture.

That’s it!

So when the cousin crew is together and it’s also close to nap time, some Photoshop magic comes in handy! 😎 A big bonus to this is you get a group photo of all smiles AND individual portraits of each kid!

If you’re a new photographer or just one wanting to brush up on photoshop skills, this can also hopefully help sessions go smoother and get you some practice! 💻
