And the cuteness continues with Miss Eleanor! 💕

This girl was giving me ALL the faces, twirls, and personality during her Pink Sparkle Rainbow Mini Session!

I absolutely love when little ones let their personalities shine through in their photos, and Eleanor did just that!

So much fun, so much personality, and a whole lot of adorable! 🌈

First up is Miss Elsie from my Pink Sparkle Rainbow Mini Sessions!

This little girl was a pure model princess! She was an absolute delight to photograph and made my job way too easy! Between her sweet personality and adorable poses, I just couldn’t get enough!

Seriously, how cute are these?! 🎀

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃👻🖤

And that’s a wrap on our Halloween creative shoots!

I wanted to end this series by sharing a little bit of EVERYTHING! The final images, the behind-the-scenes moments, the laughter, and all the fun that went into creating these photos!

Avery, Fred, Hilda, and Lexi, you four absolutely KILLED IT! From the characters you brought to life to all the laughs we shared in between, this was an experience I hope you’ll remember for years to come!

A HUGE thank you to Hart Clips Salon & Spa for jumping on board with such short notice and helping bring our visions to life! And to The Deranged Haunted House, thank you for opening your doors and giving us such an incredible place to create! You guys went above and beyond!

This is what I love about photography. 💕 It’s so much more than the final images. It’s the relationships, the laughter, the experiences, and having an amazing community willing to come together to make something special happen!

What started as a creative idea turned into a day full of unforgettable memories and some pretty awesome photos!

The photos are what we get to keep, but the experience is what we’ll remember. 🖤

Thank you to EVERYONE who made this possible!

And if you’re looking for some Halloween scares tonight, you better go check out The Deranged Haunted House! 👻 You might just catch a few of us there, too! 😉🎃

Have a fun, safe, and SPOOKY Halloween! 🖤

🩸 AVERIE | THE CULT LEADER 🩸

The biggest mistake you could make? Thinking she’s the innocent one. 😈

That sweet smile? It’s a trap. And by the time you realize it, you’re already in too deep.

Averie doesn’t chase her victims. She doesn’t have to.

You didn’t stumble into her world by accident. She was expecting you. 🔪🖤

👀 Stay tuned for the FINAL set of Halloween photos TOMORROW!

👻 Don’t forget to hit up The Deranged Haunted House this weekend! Trust me, it’s worth it!

Benton Volleyball deserves a spot on the feed! 🏐🐾

Their season may be over, but I’m finally getting to share these team pictures! This busy fall has me behind on social media for ALL my teams, and I have so many faces still to share! 🤍

Thank you to the players, coaches, and families for letting me capture this year’s volleyball crew. Congratulations to the seniors on your final season as Bobcats! 💙💛

🩸 BEN | THE CULT LEADER
Part 1 of 2

Or is it Gus? Fred? Honestly, this man had so many names I’m not even sure HE knows who he is anymore. 😂

But one thing’s for sure… behind that stare is something sinister.

One whisper. One promise. And suddenly, you’re following him into the darkness.

And once you follow… there’s no turning back. 🔪

Part 2 is coming!

👻 If you haven’t been to The Deranged Haunted House yet, GO THIS WEEKEND! Seriously, it’s hands down one of the BEST haunted houses I’ve ever been to! If you’re looking for one hell of a good time, this is it!

🍋 When life throws you lemons, sometimes you just have to roll with it!

These past two months have officially caught up with me! Between wearing all the hats that come with running a photography business and juggling everything life throws my way, I am beyond busy and, admittedly, behind schedule.

I’m asking for a little extra grace and patience as I work through a mountain of projects and start checking things off my list!

📸 If you’re waiting on sneak peeks, finished galleries, scheduling your viewing appointment, or anything else, please know I haven’t forgotten about you! Sneak peeks will be rolling out next week, and I’ll be reaching out to everyone waiting on updates or appointments by next week as well!

The good news? I saw this busy season catching up with me and planned accordingly! My photo sessions over the next two weeks are extremely limited, allowing me to dedicate that time to catching up on editing, orders, and everything happening behind the scenes.

One thing that’s incredibly important to me is making sure my clients never feel like they’ve been pushed to the bottom of my list. Every single one of you matters, and I want to give your images and experience the time and attention they deserve.

To everyone who has been so supportive, patient, and understanding during this crazy busy season, THANK YOU! 💕Your kindness means more than you know, and I’m so grateful to have clients who continue to support my little business through its busiest moments! 📸

What an incredible day of learning, creativity, and a little behind-the-scenes magic! 📸💚

Today, I had the honor of welcoming five students from different schools for Kirkwood’s Career Exploration Day! We spent three hours diving into what it REALLY takes to run a full-time photography business, exploring different specialties, and getting hands-on with a LIVE photoshoot both outdoors and in the studio!

And can we talk about our gorgeous model, Maggie?! 💚

Maggie, your confidence, personality, and ability to just be YOU made this session incredible! You absolutely nailed it, especially knowing my attention was focused on teaching the students!

But here’s the sweetest part…

Maggie chose her dress, and I added a bold pop of lime green to bring our vision together. Little did I know, those were actually the colors of her childhood bedroom! 🥹 What started as a creative idea turned into something connected to a special childhood memory. THIS is why I love photography!

And Maggie, you know I had to give that microphone close-up a little extra POP! 😉🎤 Keep rocking it, girl!

Kelsey, Charlie, Evangeline, Makayla, and Natasha, THANK YOU for spending your day with me! Some of you traveled quite a distance, and I truly appreciate it. I hope you left feeling inspired!

A huge thank-you to Kirkwood for allowing me to share my passion and the professional side of this industry with the next generation!

We have SO much more to share, but after working through a few edits with the students, I couldn’t resist squeezing in one more before calling it a night!

Here’s a little sneak peek of what we created! 💚📸

🥀 THE WEEPING WIDOW 🖤

They say she still wanders… searching for the love she lost.

Dressed in black, her heart forever broken, she carries the weight of a love that even death could not erase.

Some say her tears never stopped falling. Others whisper that if you see her standing in the shadows, you should never look into her eyes.

Because behind those tears lies something far more haunting than grief.

A love that became an obsession.

A sorrow that became a curse.

And a widow who refuses to let death have the final word.

After all, some love stories don’t end with death… and some souls were never meant to rest. 🖤🥀

Hilda brought The Weeping Widow to life so beautifully for our Halloween creative shoot. Every haunting detail, every expression… she was made for this character.
