I know that as your kids grow it seems to be harder to get them in front of the camera, but it's so worth it to make it happen! It's in moments like this that I see so many parents realize how tall their "little ones" have gotten and how mature they are starting to look despite having so many of their childlike features. Treasure these moments with your teens!

Sessions like this are so needed during busy season. Ones that have an ease and light heartedness to them. Families who value their memories being captured, but don't take the process too seriously. Moments when the smiles, conversation and good vibes are effortless.

Thank you to every group who has been a much needed breath of fresh air after a busy (and sometimes stressful) week!

One month with baby Meadow 🌸
My maternity leave feels like it's flying by and I just wanted to update you all on how things are going!

First, thank you so much for all the kindness and positivity that has been sent my way! I'm recovering well and taking things a day at a time. Motherhood is already an adjustment....I'm doing my best to provide myself grace and simply enjoy as many moments as possible. I'm focusing on self-care in the sporadic and minimal "down time" I have right now, along with simple and small tasks that help me feel a sense of accomplishment in the midst of everything.

I often find myself lost in thought and staring in awe of Meadow. She's truly one of the most adorable babies I've ever seen and I can't believe we created such a precious little human. She smiles a lot, she's obsessed with her little fingies and her bestie is the ceiling fan. She brings us a kind of joy I've never experienced before. We're only a month in and I'm already wishing time would slow down. 😅

I have been checking my emails periodically throughout my leave and will continue to do so every few days. I appreciate everyone for being so patient with me as I slowly respond to messages in between time with our newborn. (For those who insisted for me to fully take a break, I promise I'm not over-doing it!)

I hope you all are doing well and can't wait to catch up with you soon!

I finally understand the bittersweet feelings that families have during their maternity session. The excitement mixed with nervousness for the next chapter. The goodbye that's being said to "this version" of your life while being so ready to embrace the new one.

Enjoy these final moments and know there is truly so much to look forward to!

I just love how observant your kiddos are! They always manage to find the prettiest flowers, coolest rocks, tiniest critters, etc to excitedly share during the middle of the portrait session.

It's like they're reminding us all to pause and simply take it all in.

I mean it when I tell couples to enjoy every moment of their engagement season. That in between time period between dating and saying "I do" is really special. The excitement for what's the come. The way you're celebrated by everyone. The random moments you'll catch a glimpse of your ring and have to process all over again that you're actually getting married.

It's just a really unique time in your relationship that's filled with a lot of sweet feelings. So yeah....enjoy it.

I genuinely had a hard time saying goodbye to this sweet family. I know I say it a lot, but I really am so grateful I get to connect with you all. Whether it's for a quick mini session to capture the magic of your first time in the Smokies or a day long adventure documenting your wedding memories. Every moment with you truly feels precious. 🤍

These two.
The lighting.
The scenery.

I'm truly at a loss for words every time I look back at Quin'Tanay and Brandon's engagement portraits! I loved the time I spent with them during the session and I'm obsessed with the moments we were able to snap together.

I'm so excited to get back behind my camera and capture their special day this fall! Counting down the days!

Just an example of what can happen when it starts to rain during your Smoky Mountain session and instead of getting upset, you decide to just go with it...

Sometimes things don't go as planned, no matter how much we try to prepare. Let's make the most of the moments we have together. 🤍

Someone asked me, "Which photos do you decide to change to black & white?"
I responded, "The ones that feel right."

It's a little hard to explain....to me there are some moments that may be beautiful in color, but they hit you differently when you strip that away. All the focus goes to what's happening, the story behind the subjects, the meaning behind the details, the feelings behind subtle glances and tender touches.

Some photos just feel like they're meant to be seen without the color.
