The Richardson Family.

I was so honored to capture a film of this beautiful family’s typical Saturday morning - their beautiful mundane life that’s filled with God and their love for their family. Having a wedding photographer hire me for his own family is such a blessing. And hearing how much this film means to their family is the best form of “payment” I could ever receive.

This is my best film to date. I love being able to push myself to be better and better for the families I get to work with❤️❤️❤️

What makes my clients unique is that they have somehow lived a life that has taught them to be intentional- to live a meaningful beautiful life - to do their best to slow down and savor each moment.

This particular family blew me away with one of their questionnaire answers. In their questionnaire, I asked what made them want to book a film + photo session with me. And their answer was absolutely phenomenal.

“We can’t handle missing a single moment of the treasure that our kids are to us. We know time goes by and it’s beautiful and a gut punch all at once. We also know we won’t live in this house forever, but we have had some beautiful moments here and want video to document the season that it’s been for our family. Selah was born in this house, Ryder navigated a cross country move with us in this house. we’ve only been here not even two years but it’s been significant For our family.”

I cannot wait to edit their film (and the 3 in front of theirs 🤣❤️) - I know it’ll be amazing.

Thank you, for being such an amazing client and new friend🥰❤️

Predicting regrets for later in life is not as easy as it may sound.
It is difficult to anticipate how we will feel as life shifts. But that is where listening to our peers, ones who have lived some of those experiences can help us make decisions for our future.

Have you stopped to think about if you lose a close loved one, what you would value more than you do right now? What you’ll want more than anything?

Chat with people who have lost parents, children and spouses….
What are their most prized possessions?

It usually is their photos, their videos, old voicemails, old texts, anything where they can get as tangible as possible - their smell on old clothing or hearing their voice, seeing their smile in motion….

I do not want you to have those regrets later, I want you to have the gift of film… It is one of those things that once you experience it, you’ll want everyone to have one, because its so priceless and so meaningful….

I do not want you to miss your chance to have this. Only 4 spots remain for the year... Link in bio

I wanted to share with you my exact thoughts when I captured these two images. One of mom and one of dad.

I wanted Benny (sweet baby boy) to remember what his parents were like when he was little. How happy they were to be together.

I wanted his mother to remember her husband in his normal daily life.

And I wanted dad to remember his wife and how happy she was just to be a mother to Benny.

30 years from now, these images (and their upcoming film) will be the most prized possession they own.

What I have been up to!

I bought an assault air runner - to shed my pandemic / kid hit puberty lbs. So I have been lovingly trying to find a good balance with adding that in.

I also recently discovered the fly lady plus app, helping me find balance in my cleaning routine. Because being a creative means we go into our creative tunnels and all things responsible get ignored! So this is helping me get a few things done each day and then I can go into my tunnel!

working on our new family culture now that we have gone through a year of puberty. It felt like we had a newborn in a way. one kid who needed a lot of attention, but it was all psychological, which wore on my heavily at times. and Now I feel like my head is above water and Im finding balance in our new season. My youngest needs some parenting adjustments as he didn’t get quite as much parenting at that time and now doesn’t listen well. so we are lovingly finding BALANCE in all things!

so love and balance are the key words to my season of life right now! so excited to head out for 2 weeks in May to Arizona and Utah! Guess who has never been west of Houston? YEP - ME!!!! So this is going to be an amazing trip!

Also, filming this family yesterday was AH-MAZING!

You’ll never regret spending more time with your family and children.

Their childhood - IS - temporary.

You have no idea how many years you’ll get with them. My mother lost a son at age 16.

Make them the top priority - in reality.

Play with them. Read to them. And spend quality time one on one with them. Figure out how to make it a priority.

I had the honor of filming a family yesterday. A long time client who’s been with me since her first pregnancy. Those clients are the most special. Seeing them grow and change. It was among my easiest films (none are really hard though) and I think it will be a favorite ❤️❤️❤️❤️
