Providence Photography I am a natural light photographer specializing in Sports Photography, Seniors, Couples, Families, & Weddings. That's when I discovered God's Providence.

I strive to make you comfortable in front of my camera & capture shots that make each session unique. Debilitating migraines & other health issues forced me leave a successful career I dearly loved to be nearly home-bound many days of the month. As a coping mechanism, I found I was able to look through the back of a camera lens & capture my son & his teammates on the baseball field in a way not visible to the naked eye. I found that it gave me great joy to see how happy I could make them with the click of the shutter. l was brought to my knees, begging God as to where my place was in this world & how I could make a difference when I was in so much pain. The providence of God simply means that God will provide. He will provide what you need when you need it; He knows everything about you-every worry, every pressure, how much money you need until the day you die; He will provide everything you need at the exact moment you need it. He is King over everything & therefore controls everything. I know that God is my King. He is my Banker. He is my Healer. His providence will keep me provisioned & sustained.

Jackson Lady Indians Softball District game vs Oakville. We battled the gnats, bees, & sun in yesterday's pitching duel. The Indians came out on top 3-0. I caught several moments of pure joy. My son was a catcher & some of my favorite photos are of catchers'. I know it's virtually impossible not to blink when that ball hits the glove, but I still find the faces hysterical. The Indians had a fan club in the girls from Seckman & even asked for a picture after the game. So cute. Hope you enjoy!

If you are looking to upgrade your walls or your highlight reel with professional imagery, let's chat about a custom session!

A link to all photos has been provided (it's pinned to the top of the page) where you can also purchase a photo or two, but there's absolutely NO OBLIGATION!

All pictures from the Jackson Lady Indians Softball season are up on my website using the link below. (The district games will be added.) You can download low-resolution digital photos (with the logo/watermark) for free. You will need a code to download any of the galleries to protect the athletes. DM or text me if you want the code.

There are print packages, high-resolution digital downloads (no watermark), photo albums, canvases, & many other products available on the website for purchase. If you would like ME to create a photo album from the season, which would feature your athlete + team photos (from a favorites list you create on the website), the pricing is as follows:
*11x9 Classic Hardcover including tax & shipping: $150. Includes 20 standard pages, durable binding, glossy laminated cardstock, & acid-free, archival-quality materials. Additional pages can be added for $2.25/page. (I have one of these for each year of my son's baseball team. They have held up well.)
*11x9 Lay-Flat pages including tax & shipping: $200. Includes 20 premium, seamless lay-flat pages on extra-thick premium paper. Additional pages $3.25/page. (I have an extra large one of these with a few photos of each year my son played baseball from the time he was little until High School. These are heavy-duty & virtually indestructible.)
*8x6 Glossy Softcover including tax & shipping: $50. Includes 20 standard pages with additional pages being $1.25/page. (I have several of these as keepsakes of mini-trips. They usually stay bent after opening, but is a little something for the memories.)

All photo album orders require 50% down at the time of the order with the balance due at pickup. No refunds.

I have also had people inquire about compensating me for taking the photos. I have added my Venmo to my page if you feel you would like to donate something. I do not take photos of sports for money. I take photos because I want every kid to have pictures for when they are older & have their own kids & grandkids. I take pictures for the memories. I take pictures for the joy that I see when I show a parent or athlete a play I captured. A simple "thank you" & your patience when I get behind is all I need.

Thank you!

Last week's hard-fought 9-inning loss against Doniphan 4-5. Liley Dawes pitched an amazing game! There were a lot of impressive defensive plays. Some great hits. Just an overall well-rounded game by both teams.
