You know what day it is!? My favorite Senior Sunday! With one of my favorite girls.

Not long ago it felt like I met this sweet girl
for the first time in pre-school as I was her teacher. She was shy and timid as she was learning a whole new world with new teachers and other kiddos. I watched her grow and transform into someone who used her caring heart to help others. She used her playfulness and silliness as she went about her day. She was ALWAYS making me laugh. She began to create beautiful memories inside that preschool classroom using toys, music, art, and through her play.

Now to see her graduate is just remarkable. To know she worked so hard to get to this point. To know her is a blessing. She truly has one of the biggest hearts. Her laugh is contagious and she’s an amazing big sister. She knows what she wants and won’t settle. I hope and pray for her to always lead with her heart, follow God, and to try big things in life. Do not shrink so that you fit in with this world but continue to be a big bright light for all to see you were made to be.

Graduation walk through all of his schools 🥹

Everyone I photograph has a story and I wish I could just tell them all but it’s not all mine to tell. All I can hope for is to show their beautiful bright light in this world. This kiddos perseverance is admirable. He doesn’t let major health issues or diagnosis after one another, be a road block for what he wants to do in his life. He continues to be bold, brave, and his zest for life and creating is so remarkable. From music, sports and drawing, he can truly do it all. His energy for life, learning, and people was just so refreshing. His love for his mama and how proud he was to show his drawings of family members was the sweetest. You never know what people have gone through to get where they are. We all have a story, we all have trials, but we also have strength in our struggles and through it all hopefully one day can look back and say we did it. We persevered when all things were against us.

So sometimes a photo session is more than just pictures, it’s a moment in time where else can pause, take it all in, and just be so grateful to God and family to get us here. I know this kiddo will continue to do great things!

Photography holds so many emotions within a single moment. One of my goals is to just capture wonder, beauty, joy, and all of God’s glory for others to witness. 😍🙏

When we each look at a photo we all can see things differently. Most will see an accomplishment. 👏🏼🎉 However only a few know everything it took to get here.

One person may see a boy growing older, stepping into a future full of possibilities, quietly leaving behind the innocence of childhood as he enters a new chapter of his life. 🥹

Another may see the magic of imagination and the joy of play. The nostalgia of your favorite toys, and the simple happiness they brought. Remembering that comfort that cuddling your favorite stuffed animal gave you, or that special person who gifted it to you. 🥰A reminder of days filled with curiosity , creativity, and endless play.✨

But a mother… a mother sees something deeper. She sees her little boy. Her baby. The one who once spent hours lost in those very toys, creating worlds of his own. She sees the space where time has gently moved on, where those moments have become memories. And within that, she feels both pride and an ache. That quiet, tender pain of watching her child grow, and change. Knowing and feeling all of his struggles and pain, almost feeling defeating but also always having hope for him no matter what. Knowing that there’s no other joy that can compare to what she has felt in times of being his mom. 💕

Through scripture we know God sees nothing but pure love and a beautiful child just trying to figure out life. He sees someone who is fearfully and wonderfully made. Someone that is so loved beyond measure. 🙏

Sometimes a photograph isn’t just an image… it’s a piece of time we wish we could hold onto just a little longer. It’s a feeling, it’s hope, it’s sadness, it’s love, it’s everything in one. Such is life.

I pray this graduate keeps his sense of wonder, the joy of playing in life and finds ways to continue to create always. Getting to know him in this short time and to know his story, I know he will. 🫶🏼

Senior Friday 🎉🎊🙌🏼Making senior Friday a thing! 😜I have to many of these beauties to post and not enough Sundays! 😆👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I always wondered when I was little why it was called “Good Friday” when there was nothing good about it. Nothing good about the betrayal, the flesh giving up. The mocking and beating. The weight of the thorns. The nails on the cross. The cries of Mary as she watches such pain. It was heartbreak in its rawest form.

Good Friday is the reminder that Jesus did not just talk about love. He proved it, infinitely. He carried the cross for us,
He took the shame and suffered, and gave his life for us. For sinners, for the misunderstood, the hurt and broken.
For me, and for you.

There are not many words for this day of heaviness of hurt, pain and sorrow. For guilt of following the crowd. For condemning and hurting someone who just loved us. It truly feels sad, heavy, and empty. We know that He was not held there by nails alone. He was held there by love for us. That is mercy, that is true love. He knew the outcome was bigger than the pain. What looked like defeat and like darkness conquered, that is when heaven was doing its deepest work. Sometimes what looks like the end is the beginning of redemption. We are all human and make mistakes and follow the crowd blindly, but knowing how loved you are when you did nothing to deserve it, there’s nothing like it. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16

So now that I’m older, no there was nothing good about the hurt and pain we caused but there is hope and love and so much light after and to know all of that was for us is more than good. For us to know how loved we are because that is the only way our flesh can even come close to comprehend such love. When something “good” happens to you whether it’s observing nature and all its wonder and beauty, that’s God. Whether it’s hearing your baby laugh for the first time, that’s God. Whether it’s sitting at the bedside of a loved one knowing your flesh will never see them again and it hurts like hell but there’s some type of hope knowing that you are not alone through the pain and that this truly isn’t the end spiritually, that’s God.

So yes, Good Friday is painful. But it is also holy. Because on that cross, Jesus showed so much more than love. There’s nothing else that compares to God’s love and today is a reminder of how loved you are and how deserving you are. How great is our God.

Such a classy senior session! 🤩👏🏼

One thing I have absolutely love about photography is seeing these young people get a boost of confidence during their shoot. They transform and become so proud, as we talk about what it takes to graduate. All of the hard work, dedication to sports, late night homework, everything hard that can come with high school. It is definitely not easy but here we are. We also talk about the memories they’ve made, friendships, dances, fun times. I get to see their eyes light up about talking about things that have brought them joy and for their future ahead. I hope to create a space that gives them freedom to feel honored, excited, proud, and so happy for how far they have come to get to this point. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This senior is the ultimate example of hard work and dedication. He deserves all of the congrats and praise 🙌🏼He’ is not one to sleep in and I hope he continues this endurance of amazing energy into his future! I know he will! 🎊

I have a few more openings for senior shoots before graduation! Shoot me a message to book! 💕

with this cutie ☺️

You know they say “don’t blink” because one minute they are starting kindergarten scared to leave your side and the next your fixing their cap for graduation .🧑‍🎓 🥹 It is so true, every season of watching your babies grow is so bittersweet, but it’s also the biggest blessing in life. To watch them go from sweet little beings that follow you around everywhere, to becoming more independent and having their own ideas and plans. It’s all so surreal. To see these kiddos grow into such amazing, caring, fun loving, people has been so awesome. I pray this girly continues to have her passion for a fun and fulfilling life. She’s a girl that knows what she wants and won’t settle! (She get it from her mama) Love that!

Keep soaking in these last couple months of school and making memories.💕

When you are graduating from dental school 🦷🪥🥳😜

I don’t know if there’s a bigger blessing than making besties with your classmates and being able to graduate together! 💕 These girls were so much fun and the true epitome of friendship. Someone who hypes you up, compliments you, cheers you on, and who is just there through the good and hard times! How blessed to have friends like this .🙏 I hope they feel so beyond proud for all of their hard work to get them to this point. They deserve all the praise and all the cheers!

Don’t forget to floss! 😁

with this awesome kiddo!

Man this shoot was one for the books! 👏🏼He knew exactly where he wanted to go and what he wanted this shoot to feel like! I hope he continues to have that drive and determination in his future, I know he will! It was nothing short of memorable and magical with the beautiful NM sunset and his mama by his side! 💕I’ve known this family for quite some time and I don’t know if there’s a greater bond between a mama and her boys. It’s so sweet to see. She has done so much for them and continues to be a beautiful light for them. This kiddos passion for ball 🏀 and his family is so special. His basketball was a keepsake from his late uncle and he treasured it so much .🥹

Almost done with senior year!! It is so bittersweet but with every ending is a new beginning! 🙌🏼🙏🏼
