The best photos happen when we stop worrying about the perfect pose and simply play. 🤍

I can pose you all day long, but when we get down on a child’s level, let them be silly, let them move, and capture the connection naturally—that’s when the magic happens. ✨

Those genuine smiles, little giggles, curious eyes, and sweet moments of connection are the images you’ll look back on years from now and feel all over again.

Because sometimes the most sentimental photos are the ones that were never posed at all.

If you are in Angola, you need to check out Grubby’s Flower Farm! They offer U-Pick flowers with a great selection! My kids love going there and getting to create a bouquet for Mom! This is a great addition to our community and you all NEED to visit!!

I built this photography company around being a mom. It was to give me more time with my children while giving me a outlet for my creativity, as well as the time to heal from a brain injury.

Throughout the last 5 years we have welcomed three children. We are lucky to say that we will be welcoming baby number four in November.

With that being said my last sessions for the year will be at the end of October. This is ensure all the galleries will be home before I go on maternity leave. I will be returning during the winter, but with 3 under 3 we have made the difficult decision to close my studio until we build one on our property in the next year. I will be renting one for anyone that is wanting a studio session, but it would be at the cost of the client if the client would chose a studio session.

Thank you so much for all the love and support you have shown me over the last 5 years! Even if it was a little as sharing my posts, it still means the world to me and my family! To my past clients it has been a honor to capture memories that will live on forever in your homes! A endless thank you will never be enough! Here’s to 5 years of memories! 🥂

The amount of beautiful extended family sessions I have done this year has warmed my heart! ☀️

When Livvi contacted me to do hers, I knew it was going to be hands down my favorite! Just look at these! 🤍
