Sweet Charlotte is visiting from Germany! So we gave her the full Southern IL experience for her first senior session.

Sunsets. Backroads. Cow pastures. Creeks and country cemeteries.

The picture part was fun but I think the highlight for her was catching frogs 🐸 🤣.

My hot take on the trending AI is out to steal our kids images that I’m seeing all over my feed…so many are choosing not to post their kids.

I respect that.

But. It doesn’t worry me. My kids are grown but if they weren’t I’d still be posting them.

I didn’t stop talking when I found out my phone is listening to me. I didn’t stop going on hikes when someone told me it could be dangerous to be out alone.

There will always be a what if to worry about. Creeps in the world. Someone or some thing trying to tell us you should be afraid.

I choose FAITH over fear. And that things will work out for my good. In all areas of my life.

And that while AI CAN be bad. It also can be very useful.

And I follow your lead. I see what you post of your kids first before I think about posting anything from our sessions. It’s how I build my business. It’s probably how you found me.

But if you want nothing or selective posts, tell me. No questions ask I will respect your wishes. Always. ā¤ļø

Give me old brick, a little drama, and a gorgeous dress and I’m happy. šŸ–¤

I loved getting creative at this space for a recent collaboration—and I get to be back here again this week for an engagement session.

Already thinking about all the ways I can photograph it differently this time.

And just like that the Kurzendorfers gallery is delivered while they are still on their familymoon and my time with this big beautiful day is done.

Is it healthy to get emotionally attached to every wedding? Probably not. But I loved every single moment.

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Kurzendorfer!

Here's your daily reminder to focus on your family. Because at the end of the day that is all that matters. Love. And giving love.

Who says you can't take a small town wedding and turn it into a cinematic show stopper?

When Christina first reached out to me months ago about doing her wedding and mentioned she would like a night time look with an old car I knew we were destined to work together.

And even though we wanted a big town look there was not shortage of big love. This family and all the little moments are still running through my head. Thank you so so much for allowing me to be a part of your day Christina Kurzendoerfer šŸ¤
