I hope I didn't make you all wait too long but some stories are just extra sweet and we need sit on them for just a little bit. 🍦💙

A few years ago, I photographed this adorable family when they found out their first baby was a GIRL, revealed with a pink ice cream cone. 💕🍦

Fast forward a few years, and we got to do it all over again… only this time, big sis was in charge of the surprise.

Mom and Dad turned their backs while she walked up carrying an ice cream cone topped with BLUE. 💙

IT’S A BOY!! 🥹💙

We were all so excited, but judging by these photos, I’m pretty sure big sister was equally excited that there was ice cream involved. 😂🍦

I absolutely love getting to capture families through different chapters of their lives, and getting to be there for BOTH of these reveals made this one especially sweet.

How about this for a sneak peek?! 😍

I’m going to leave you all in suspense for just a little bit longer…

This sweet little girl is holding an ice cream cone with the BIG reveal inside …the gender of her new sibling! 🍦💗💙

The reactions might just be my favorite part. 😂🥹

So… what’s your guess? Boy or girl? 👇

Stay tuned… 😉

Mother Nature understood the assignment today. 🍂

A glimpse of Fall weather means one thing… it’s time to book your Fall photos before everyone else has the same idea. 😉

My Fall calendar is officially open, and availability is limited, especially those golden-hour weekend dates.

Let’s make some memories.

The rain may have tried to steal the show, but Ryan had other plans. Just before this surprise proposal, the skies opened up and it started pouring. A little waiting, a lot of hope, and then the clouds cleared just in time for the perfect moment.

Sometimes things don't go exactly as planned, and somehow they turn out even better.

Congratulations to Ryan & Sydney! Thank you for letting me capture such a beautiful beginning to your forever. ❤️✨

The radar said “good luck.” 😅⛈️

We had the tiniest window before this Spring storm rolled in, but this sweet family made every second count.

These kiddos were full of personality, laughter, and so much love. Sessions like this remind me that perfection isn’t about the weather AND it’s about the connection. 🤍

Poor dad never stood a chance… 😄
The only male in this house... even the dogs are girls!

But honestly, this beautiful family made my job so easy. These gorgeous ladies brought the smiles, the personality, and all the Fall vibes. 🍂✨

And can we talk about this amazing day? Golden light, perfect weather, and everything I love most about my Fall sessions.

This is exactly why Fall will always be my favorite season for photos. 🤎

How is it possible that the little girl who grew up across the street from me is already graduating?! 😭❤️

Lilly is officially finishing up at St. Pius X High School and heading off to become a Arkansas Razorback girlie. ❤️🐗

And let me tell you… this senior session was SO Lilly.
High energy. Tons of ideas. Completely planned out. Girl knew EXACTLY what she wanted. 😂

We literally stayed out until DARK chasing the last little bits of light because neither of us wanted to stop. Every time I said, ‘Okay I think we got it,’ Lilly would hit me with, ‘WAIT… one more.’ 😂

Honestly though? I loved every second of it.

She’s sweet, funny, full of life, and has the super sweet parents. Watching kids from your own neighborhood grow up into amazing humans is such a weird and beautiful thing.

Also… her graduation party is TODAY so apparently I enjoy the adrenaline rush of posting at the absolute last second. 😂

So proud of you, Lilly. Arkansas is lucky to get you. ❤️

Some kids are just built different… and Johnathan is one of them.

Graduating from Liberty High School as co-valedictorian, recruited by the University of Wyoming to play football, and somehow also excelling in baseball, AND basketball. Oh… and receiving Outstanding Male Athlete too.

Like seriously… what more can this kid do? 😂

I’ve known Johnathan since he was little, and honestly none of this surprises me. He’s always had an incredible work ethic, stayed humble, and has the kind of parents that raised him the right way. Just genuinely good people.

These are the kinds of seniors that make you walk away from a session thinking, ‘Yep… this kid is going to do big things.’

So proud of you, Johnathan. Wyoming is getting an amazing athlete — but even more importantly, an amazing human. 🤎💛

I’m a little behind posting seniors… and meanwhile Kelly is basically already on her way to the University of Missouri. 😂💛🖤

MIZ...

Future nurse. MIZZOU bound. And somehow still smiling while we were absolutely freezing downtown.

I’ve known this girl since the day she was born, which honestly makes posting these feel a little emotional. Watching your friends’ kids grow up and become amazing humans is wild.

But let me tell you - she came PREPARED for this session.
Outfits ✔️
Locations ✔️
Vision ✔️
Energy ✔️

We ran all over downtown like maniacs trying to beat the cold, catch the light, and hit every spot on her list. And Kelly? She never complained once (well maybe a few times but it was sooo cold). Meanwhile I’m pretty sure I lost feeling in my hands halfway through. 😂

So proud of you, Kel. MIZZOU is getting a good one. 💛
