If you like to laugh and feel all the feels while looking like a goddess or god in your photos, drop me a message! As a former band-nerd (marching band for 8 years) I've got "a lot of common knowledge, brah." and a lot of movie quotes... I love to play off of your humor to get those amazing photos.

The #1 thing couples do during their first dance that ruins the photos. 💃
It's not the dancing. It's the chit-chat.

I've seen it a hundred times. The music starts. The couple comes together. And then... they start talking. About the caterer. About the timeline. About what's happening next.

And while they're talking, their faces are doing weird things.

Here's the fix: Save the chit-chat for the reception tables. Let the dance be the moment. Look at each other.
Breathe.
Hold each other like no one else is in the room.

That's when the photos look like love. Not logistics.

Save this post for your wedding day. You'll thank me later. 📸

When it’s too hot to go outside, you take your engagement photos to Dave & Buster’s. 🎮

It was August in Houston. 100+ degrees outside plus a stupid amount of humidity. And Anna & Oz? They chose air conditioning. Smart couple.

We went to their favorite games. They played against each other (and with each other). We laughed a LOT. And Oz even managed to win a teddy bear in the claw machine during the session. 🧸

This is what an engagement session should feel like. A date. Not a photoshoot.

If you want photos that feel like YOU — even if that means playing arcade games in an air-conditioned building — DM me ‘ENGAGED’ and tell me your idea. I’d love to hear it. 🫶

I photograph weddings. But I also photograph seniors. And honestly? The approach is exactly the same.

✨ Posing that makes you feel comfortable (even if you think you’re awkward)
✨ Lighting that makes you glow (natural or artificial — I do both)
✨ An editorial eye that captures who you are RIGHT NOW

Whether it’s a wedding or a senior session, I approach every shoot with the same intention: capture the real you, beautifully.

If you know a senior who needs photos — send them my way.

POV: Me trying to act normal when meeting with a dream client. 🤡

The moment they mention a themed wedding, a non-traditional detail, or anything slightly nerdy — I'm trying SO hard to keep my professional face on.

Internally? I'm doing backflips.

If you want a photographer who will match your weird energy and be genuinely excited about your vision — that's me. No judgment. Just excitement.

DM me 'ENGAGED' and tell me your wedding vision. I promise I'll be normal about it. (I won't.) 🫶

Almost Friday. 🙌 And honestly, it’s been a pretty dang good Thursday.

I got to meet some amazing brides today, the Spawn had his very first tennis class 🎾, and he’s somehow already having a GREAT first six weeks of 7th grade. 🥹

And then there’s this little reminder of why I love what I do…

A grand exit, a ridiculous amount of confetti, and two people who were WAY too excited to officially be married. 😂🎉

Give me the messy, joyful, confetti-everywhere moments every single time.

Happy almost Friday, friends. ✨

Throwback to this golden hour dream session with Faith & Christopher at one of my favorite spots, Brazos Bend State Park. We had the best time exploring the trails and capturing their easy-going connection.

Being there from the engagement to the “I do’s” is the biggest privilege. I’m currently deep in editing their wedding gallery, and let me tell you, it’s filled with even more incredible joy and emotion. Stay tuned for those sneak peeks!

For my couples—this is why I love engagement sessions! It’s our chance to get comfortable in front of the camera long before the wedding day, so when it arrives, you can just be yourselves.

Congratulations, you two! So happy for you.
