A quick life update and a sincere thank you!!

To my wonderful 2025 couples still waiting on their final galleries to be delivered,

First, I want to say thank you. Thank you for letting me capture one of the biggest days of your lives. I know you are all anxiously awaiting your full galleries, and I want to sincerely apologize for the delay in getting them into your hands.
This year and the end of the season last year has brought a lot of big (and beautiful!) changes my way. Between stepping into a new teaching position (I haven’t held another full time job other than photography in 3 years. This was prior to having 2 more boys as well!!), keeping up with my kiddos, and navigating some other personal transitions, my editing desk has been a bit more crowded than usual (I want to be transparent with my clients! I am not used to editing this much while still having to take care of my day to day tasks. This past wedding season has been my biggest. Although I am grateful for being able to capture so many beautiful weddings, I WILL NOT be taking on as many weddings again!!)
I know how much these memories mean to you, and I’m working hard to ensure every photo gets the detail and love it deserves. I have been editing in some capacity almost every day of the week since last September. I am taking one wedding at a time and getting through them week by week.

My plan for delivery as of now:
• The majority of the 2025 weddings left to edit: Will be delivered by the end of February.
• The few remaining end-of-year weddings from 2025: Will be delivered by the middle of March.

I am so grateful for your patience and grace as I balance teaching, being a parent, and your photographer. I promise the wait will be worth it! 📸✨

If you have any specific questions about your gallery, please feel free to reach out to me via DM or email!

I included a photo of me presenting about my photography business to my students!

It’s been a year for sure!!! Full of accomplishments, new things, and some trials and hard times as well! I have learned a lot about my limits, where I want to be, the people I want to keep in my space and the people I don’t, how hard it is to be a mother and run a business, how hard it is to just physically and mentally push yourself when you feel like you don’t have a purpose, how easy it is to forget yourself. But, how beautiful life is, how you want to achieve so much for yourself and your family, how you want to make your family, friends, and supporters proud, how much you want to make something beautiful, share your creativity and all the good parts that are left of yourself.

2025 was a lot of things for me! I hope 2026 brings happiness, relaxation, growth for my business and myself, answers, good health, achievements for myself and my family, travel, completed house projects, new endeavors, and so much more!!

I am so grateful for all of my supporters, clients, friends, and family for all your support this year! I really would not be able to keep running this business and providing for my family without my clients continued patience and understanding when it comes to longer turn around times due to raising my three wild boys!!! You guys truly have no idea how much I stress over being behind and wanting to deliver the best possible end result for you all! I hate being past turn around times and it always seems like with these three boys it isn’t possible to not….. (this is something I plan to work on for 2026. Pointers would be appreciated or a babysitter too!! 😬).

I am finishing up several weddings and a couple more sessions for 2025 and getting those to clients as soon as possible! Reflecting on 2025 here is what I was able to capture:

10 Maternity Sessions
5 Newborn/Fresh 48 Sessions
28 Couples/ Engagement Sessions
12 Family
52 Minis
8 Milestone/Birthday
4 Branding Sessions
1 Pregnancy Announcement
1 Gender Reveal
2 Bo***ir
4 Senior Sessions
2 pre-k grad sessions
1 Real Estate
1 Photos with Santa Day
2 Fairs
30 Weddings
6 Videos

Thank you all so much!! Be on the lookout for more posts with some of my favorite photos I captured in 2025!

Hey guys! I just wanted to give a quick update on editing and some other details!

I have attached my current editing list. This list is to show my goal of everything that will be delivered before Christmas 🤞🤞🤞!! I have placed everything in editing order based off when sessions/weddings took place/when they should be delivered. I am working as quickly as I can to complete everything and to ensure the best outcome for your galleries 💕 The top 7 things on the list should be completed in the next 5-6 days hopefully! (With the exception of Christmas Minis that should be delivered in 5-6 days after your session) I still am running behind on delivering wedding and regular session galleries. I am working on editing pretty much all day every day and through the night into morning as much as I can, till I fall asleep! I am eating, sleeping, and breathing editing; except for the time in between I have to take care of my little ones and trying to keep us healthy! Thank you all so much for all your support, appreciation, and patience! None of this would be possible without you and I am so grateful for the busy wedding year I have had!

I also, will be sending out any gifts, package extras, and any USB drives that were owed to you before Christmas! Please, please, please message me after the holidays if you do not receive these things! Running to the post office with three kids and fitting it in amongst everything else, sometimes gets put on the back burner; so I am bound to forget when it comes to running errands!

As always…. Just remember I love you all and want to get everyone their galleries to them just as much as you want them! 🙂

Just hopping on to give all my clients an update.
I am trying my best to get galleries and videos out as quickly as possible. I am unfortunately still a few weeks behind on delivering weddings currently. I planned to have galleries delivered last week which, I was unable to deliver due to illness. I have been sick or my kids have been sick for the past week. I pushed through and got all my Christmas minis in this past weekend and crashed hard last night and went to urgent care today! Please bare with me while I’m trying to recover from this infection and then will be knocking out finishing and delivering galleries as quickly as I can! Thank you all so much for your support and patience! I appreciate you all so much!

I love elopements!

There is something about only having the most special people around you on the most important day of your lives!! The moments are easier to enjoy and the day flows so much smoother without all the added on things! Andy and Ally’s elopement was no exception! They soaked up every available moment together and the details and venue were beautiful! Thank you for letting me spend this special day with you!!

Happy Wedding Day to Wes and Hannah! 🕊️

Hannah we have talked about this day for months and you have done lots of planning! I know you are so excited and I can’t wait to see how it all came together! You are going to be a beautiful bride!

I have so many weddings and sessions to share! I swear I’m not MIA 😬😬 This year has been so busy and I just took a step back from posting!

This wedding has been one of my favorite weddings this fall!! Rylie and Austin’s details were so dreamy! Their venue was beautiful and we only had a little sprinkle towards the end of their ceremony! Thank you both for having me capture your special day! I loved getting to spend the day with you and witness your love for one another!
