With busy season, comes a FULL editing list. Something I am so beyond grateful for every year.
I may not speak for every photographer, but this is MY timelines. You will always get a preview within 7 days of your session, and the time frame given for each is just a max timeframe. You may receive your session before the max limit! ❤️
As always, I appreciate you all and your patience during this beautiful season.

My books are open for November & December! ☺️
Only a few sessions left in the final moments in 2026!!

Family photos are about so much more than everyone looking at the camera and smiling🤎

Let kids be kids. Let them run, laugh, be silly, and even have their little meltdowns. Let them wrap their arms around your neck, hide their faces in your shoulder, or refuse to sit still for more than two seconds.

I promise you, none of that bothers me. 🫶🏼

As a photographer, I’m not looking for perfection. I’m looking for the little things that tell your family’s story. Whether it’s a wild moment together or calm.. both will turn out equally beautiful!
So please, don’t spend your entire session worrying about whether your children are behaving, smiling, or cooperating. Don’t feel like you need to apologize when things get a little wild.

Just be present. Love on your babies. Laugh with your spouse. Soak in this season of life, exactly as it is.

❤️

Football Friday night, foooooootball Friday night 🎶

This years family photos for the Jones family, was right up their alley. We made sure that this season of life was captured just the way it is - go dawgs🤭

P.S. For all my ladies out there.. we can be creative at your session! Pick a sport or activity that actually means something to your men & I guarantee they won’t complain about photos this year 😂

Yesterday was so special for so many reasons. We celebrated the beautiful union of two families, and I had the honor of documenting all of the love, laughter, and little moments in between. 🫶🏼

But yesterday also felt a little different for me.
It was the second-to-last wedding I have on my books… for good. After next weekend, I officially have no more weddings booked.

And wow. That feels strange to say.

I’m emotional. I’m happy. I’m nervous. I’m a little sad. But more than anything, I feel confident and at peace with my decision to step away from the wedding scene and pour more of my time and heart into the families, newborn babes, and everyday stories that have become such a huge part of why I love what I do. 🤍

Weddings have been such a special chapter of my career. Being trusted to document one of the biggest days of someone’s life, the quiet moments, the happy tears, the tiny details, and everything in between is something I will never take for granted.

For now, though, I’m ready for a new season.

I’m excited to have some of my weekends back 😂 IYKYK.
I’m excited to pour more into The Olive Branch Studio
I’m excited to have more space for my families and newborns.
And I’m excited to see where this next chapter takes me. 🤗

I’ll still be popping into the wedding world here and there as an associate photographer for some incredibly talented friends, so I’m not disappearing completely. And I’ll never say never because who knows what the future holds.

But as of right now, I have one wedding left in this chapter of my own business. Wedding photography, you’ve been so good to me. 🤍

Every newborn session looks a little different. We may have a baby who sleeps through the entire session, one who doesn’t want to miss a second of the excitement, or one who lets everyone know exactly how they feel. 😂 And that’s perfectly okay.

The Olive Branch Studio was created to be a calm, cozy, and welcoming space where families can slow down and simply soak in these moments. Newborn days pass in the blink of an eye, and before you know it, the tiny details that feel so familiar today begin to fade.

My heart behind every session is to preserve those little moments no matter what they look like, so you’ll always have something to hold onto long after this season has passed.

Because these memories deserve to last forever, even when this stage doesn’t. ✨
