Some things are just unimaginable.

Earlier this week, a couple I went to high school with, Payton and George, lost their home and their two beloved cats in an electrical fire caused by Monday’s storm in Valparaiso. In a matter of moments, their entire world changed.

To help support them as they begin the long process of rebuilding, I will be hosting flower field mini sessions at Hickory Hills Flower Farm in Valparaiso, Indiana on July 16th, with 100% of proceeds going directly to Payton and George.

Session details:
• $250
• 15-minute session
• Minimum of 15 edited images
• July 16th at Hickory Hills Flower Farm

Available time slots:
7:00pm
7:15pm
7:30pm
7:45pm
8:00pm

If these fill and there’s enough interest, I will absolutely add more time slots.

If you’ve been wanting updated family photos, couples photos, maternity photos, or even just a reason to get in front of the camera, this is such a meaningful way to do it.

Thank you all for helping support Payton and George during an incredibly difficult time. 🤍

One of my favorite parts of family photography is getting to witness the connection within a family. The little moments say everything without needing words.

Callie absolutely adores her parents, and you can feel it in every smile, every laugh, every time she runs straight into their arms. That kind of love is so genuine and easy, and it shows up so beautifully in photos.

She’s full of life and light in a way that only comes from being so deeply loved, and it’s such a beautiful thing to capture 🩵

Cam is now a big 7 month old, but once upon a time - he was a newborn.

And getting to step into these moments for the Kersey family, year after year, is something I’ll never take for granted. Watching their story grow, their babies grow, and their love somehow grow right along with it… it’s the sweetest thing to witness.

So grateful I got to capture these quiet, fleeting newborn moments before they turned into the busy, beautiful days they’re living now 🤍

Some love stories just feel steady, effortless, and meant to be... Brandon and Caitlin are exactly that 🤍

Getting to capture these moments for people who have been part of our lives for so long makes it even more special. The way they look at each other, the quiet in-between moments, the laughter… it all speaks for itself.

So grateful I got to play a small part in documenting their commitment to forever ✨

Consider this my promise to start posting more - there's so much beauty left unshared!!

I shot a good friend's engagement photos last October. It was chilly, calm, beautiful, and cozy.

Celebrating their love through these photos was truly special.

And although I know it's hard to believe, Alyssa is not actually a model! She just looks like one.😍🫶🏻
