A Sunday kind of love. 🤍

Makayla + Austin are officially MARRIED, and I can’t think of a sweeter way to spend this Sunday evening than sharing a little peek into their wedding day at Gibbs Manor Wedding & Events in Sylvania, Alabama.

Yesterday was the BEST kind of wedding day. From all the little details they poured their hearts into, to the happy tears, belly laughs, and those quiet in-between moments that somehow always end up being some of my favorites… this day was so completely them.

And the way Austin looks at Makayla?! 😭🤍 That says everything.

Makayla + Austin, thank you for trusting me to document this season of your lives, from your engagement photos all the way to becoming husband + wife. It has been such a joy getting to know you both, and I already know narrowing down this gallery is going to be nearly impossible.

For now, here’s just a little peek into the beginning of forever. 🥹🤍

Congratulations, Mr. + Mrs.!

It’s wedding week for Makayla and Austin! 🤍

I’ve been looking back through their engagement session, and these photos have me even more excited to celebrate them. From the sweetest moments on the water to all the laughter in between, their session was such a beautiful reminder that engagement photos don’t have to feel stiff or overly posed. They can feel like a date night, with a little extra magic and someone there to document it all.

This week, we get to trade engagement photos for wedding day memories at Gibbs Manor Wedding and Events in Sylvania, Alabama, and I cannot wait to see these two become husband and wife.

Makayla and Austin, your wedding week is finally here! I’m so excited to celebrate you both and capture every little moment of your day. 🥹

If you’re planning a wedding in Northeast Alabama, your engagement session is the perfect opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera before your wedding day. Whether you’re dreaming of a lakeside session, a beautiful estate, or somewhere meaningful to your story, we’ll create something that feels like you.

One of the biggest questions I get about senior photos is, “How do we fit everything she wants into one session?”

The answer? You don’t necessarily have to. 🤍

Your senior year is a whole season of life, and your photos can tell more than one part of that story. Different seasons mean different locations, outfits, colors, and an entirely different feel. It also takes so much pressure off trying to squeeze every idea you’ve saved into one evening.

Aubree’s summer senior session at Bent Creek Farm in Jacksonville, Alabama was the sweetest example. Golden light, cowboy boots, wildflowers, pink cap and gown, and so many little details that felt like her. 🌸

And my favorite part? She told me afterward how much fun she had and is already planning her next senior session for this fall. 🥹

Senior photos don’t have to feel stiff or like something you’re just checking off the graduation list. They can actually be one of the really fun parts of senior year.

So if you’re trying to decide when to schedule senior pictures, think about what you want to remember. Summer flowers, fall color, spring before graduation…or maybe a little bit of each. 🤍

Aubree, I already cannot wait for round two!

Coastal wedding details will forever have my heart. 🐚🌸🤍

Soft pinks, seashells, pearls, fresh florals, a touch of gold, and the prettiest shades of coastal blue. Give me all the romantic seaside wedding details.

One of my favorite parts of photographing a wedding day is taking all of those little pieces a bride has carefully chosen and bringing them together to tell a piece of her story. The rings, perfume, jewelry, invitation suite, florals, heirlooms, and sentimental details deserve to be documented just as beautifully as the rest of the day.

For this coastal inspired wedding flat lay, I used the Beach Bliss styling mat from Styling Mats + More | Family Owned Biz, and those soft blue tones were absolutely perfect paired with the blush, gold, pearls, and seashells. 🐚

This is exactly why I love photographing coastal weddings along the Gulf Coast. The soft colors, beautiful light, ocean inspired textures, and effortless feel are such a natural fit for my light and airy, editorial approach to wedding photography.

I’m currently booking 2027 Gulf Coast and destination weddings in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, along the Alabama Gulf Coast, the Florida Panhandle, and beyond.

If you’re planning a romantic beach or coastal wedding and searching for a Gulf Coast wedding photographer, I would love to document your day and all of the beautiful little details that make it yours. 🤍

Libby | Class of 2027 🌼✨

Golden hour, bare feet and rows and rows of summer flowers. 🤍

Libby’s senior session at Bent Creek Farm, just outside of Gadsden, Alabama, was everything I love about summer senior photos. We chased the sunset through the flower rows, played with two completely different looks and ended the evening in the dreamiest golden light.

The flower field at Bent Creek Farm has officially wrapped for this season, but don’t worry flower lovers, we’re not quite finished yet! 🌼 Our smaller flower field at Feather Creek Studio in Gadsden should be ready toward the end of October for those dreamy fall senior sessions.

And if THIS is the look you’re dreaming of, we’re already taking reservations for next summer at Bent Creek Farm! The summer flower field is expected to be available mid-July through mid-August 2027. ✨

Class of 2027 seniors, whether you’re dreaming of summer wildflowers, fall color or something completely different, let’s make your senior photos feel like you. 🤍

Senior photos, but make it feel like you. 🤍

Sophie is officially a SENIOR, and I think these photos pretty much sum up the energy she brought to her session.

We played with horses, twirled through fields, cuddled with kittens, laughed A LOT, and basically just let the evening unfold.

And that’s one of my favorite things about Sophie. Of course she wanted beautiful senior photos, but she cared just as much about having fun while we made them. She wasn’t worried about being perfectly posed every second. She wanted to laugh, move, play around and actually enjoy the experience.

Which, selfishly, made having her in front of my camera SO much fun for me too. 😂

Because your senior photos should absolutely be beautiful.

But the time you spent making them should be a memory too. 🤍

Just a few sneaks from Sophie’s senior session because I’m already obsessed with this one. ✨

✨ Sneak Peek for Leanna ✨

Some passions become part of who you are, and majorette is one of those for Leanna. 💚 From the sparkle of her uniform to the countless hours of practice behind every performance, this season represents so much more than Friday night lights. It’s dedication, confidence, and doing what she loves.

Getting to document this chapter at Hokes Bluff High School was such an honor. I can’t wait to share the rest of this beautiful gallery! 🫶🏼

Charleston didn’t need our help being charming… but we may have added a little extra. 🎀

Pastel walls, old iron gates, overflowing florals and a little bridal magic tucked inside The Parsonage. This is exactly the kind of Southern romance I could photograph all day long.

The Charm of Charleston and trust me, she understood the assignment. ✨
