✨ 2026 BOOKS ARE OFFICIALLY CLOSED! ✨

What began as a part-time gig has very much turned into a full-time one, and I am beyond grateful for the love and support that made it possible! 🥹🤎

With that growth, I’ve realized it’s time to slow down and create a healthier balance. For the remainder of the year, I need to pour more time into my family and spend a little less time behind the lens.

I’ll still be photographing all currently booked sessions and weddings while giving each gallery the time and attention it deserves—I simply won’t be accepting any additional bookings for 2026.

My books are now closed for the remainder of 2026, but I am currently booking 2027 weddings. I will not open up my books for 2027 regular sessions until after the first of the year.

This September, the Preble Fire Department is celebrating 75 years of service—what an incredible milestone! 🚒

I was fortunate enough to work with this amazing crew of men and women to update their department photos. Over the past 75 years, I can only imagine the countless hours they have spent responding to the unknown—waking at all hours when the tones drop and answering calls ranging from car wrecks and medical emergencies to fires and everything in between.

It takes an incredibly strong and dedicated group to carry on 75 years of service. The combined years of experience among these firefighters is astounding, and every one of those years represents sacrifice, courage and a commitment to showing up for others—often during their worst moments.

We are truly blessed to know these men and women and to have them serving our community. Please help me congratulate the Preble Fire Department on 75 incredible years! ❤️🚒

✈️ I’ve spent this weekend flying and working in beautiful Colorado, but I’ll officially be back in town tomorrow! Once I’m home, I’ll begin sorting through inquiries, rescheduling requests, messages, and everything else that came in while I was away. Please allow me a few business days to catch up and respond.

Moving forward, business messages—including texts—will only be answered between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. As much as I love what I do and appreciate every one of you, I simply cannot be available to respond 24 hours a day. Pertinent issues and messages regarding sessions happening within the next few days will always receive priority.

Please remember that nearly every photographer is currently entering their busiest season! Between back-to-school sessions, seniors, families squeezing in photos before their children leave for college, and WEDDING SEASON, our schedules and editing queues are incredibly full.

My current turnaround time is approximately:

📸 Regular sessions: 6–8 weeks
💍 Weddings: 12–14 weeks

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support of my small business! I’m excited to get home, catch up, and begin working through everything. 🤎

A little reminder that I am officially out of office through August 23! ✈️🏔️

I’ll be enjoying Colorado, celebrating a beautiful wedding and spending time with a childhood friend. All messages, inquiries and rescheduling requests will be answered early next week. Thank you for your patience! 🤎

My first solo plane trip! ✈️ I’m so excited to be meeting one of my oldest childhood friends in Colorado Springs, where she now lives!

Funny story: In 2015, Katlyn and I teamed up to start our own “photography business” right after we graduated. It was a complete flop, by the way. 😆 We had absolutely no idea what we were doing!

Now, 11 years later, here we are. We’re both married to our high school sweethearts, we’re both moms, and we both own our own photography businesses. We live over 1,100 miles apart—and now we finally get to photograph our first wedding together at the dreamiest venue! 🥹📸

Talk about a full-circle moment. Why not chase those crazy dreams?! 🤎

Colorado bound! ✈️🏔️

I’ll be out of the office today through Monday as I head to Colorado early tomorrow morning for a wedding with my sweet friend Katlyn Burnfield. We’ve been close since middle school, so getting to experience this together makes the trip even more special! I’ll be using my time in the air to catch up on editing, but messages and responses may be delayed while I’m away.

Before takeoff, come see me tonight at Girls Night at Steele Farms! I’ll have the cutest vintage sofa setup in the flower patch and will be offering photos for a free-will donation. Cash and Venmo are both welcome! 🌸📸
