I just had one of the funnest groups of seniors and moms of fall tonight! And I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Jax (8th) and Keegan (senior) 🤍💙 Jax is an upcoming rockstar and his big brother is a soon to be alumni of the Antwerp Archers. Such an emotional roller coaster for each and every mama as they enter the upcoming season/year of lasts entering a whole new chapter of firsts!

Say a prayer as the mama heart can be so heavy as our babies grow. It was such an honor to laugh with this group! Full of life and optimism for the upcoming season!

Soon to come is “The Moms of Fall” and just the sneak peeks I’ve seen? This group has all the personality and I can’t stop staring! Beautiful souls all around and so patient!

From your fellow fan and local mom with a camera: Remember boys. Mama is home. She is your rock. Always come home, always tell her all the things! You are living proof of the greatest of work, sweat, blood, tears, laughter that they have put into you and always wanna see you come home. If you ever say “I wonder if I should call mom” ….the answer is always yes. You are never too grown to phone home (even when you think you got it? There’s a hug waiting on you at home 🙌

**Meet the Riddell Family ❤️**

I had the pleasure of working alongside David for years, and he was actually one of the people who inspired the engineer I am today. Somehow that turned into him and his wife Sarah trusting me with their family photos two years running. 🥹❤️

And listen… this family is FUN. There’s very little “stand still and smile” happening with me. 😂 You can’t take me too seriously, so eventually everyone just accepts the chaos.

My favorite? “Run as fast as you can and hug Mom and Dad!”

These kids hear: “FULL SEND. NO SURVIVORS”🤣

But somewhere between the running, laughing and complete nonsense, you get the real stuff—the smiles you can’t force and the moments you can’t pose.

Thank you for trusting me with your memories again. ❤️ Here’s to many more years of love, laughter, and me encouraging your children to absolutely BODY you for a photo. 😂

FOOTBALL SEASON, I’VE MISSED YOU!

The camera batteries are charging, the sidelines are calling, and I am SO ready to get back at it! 🙌

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be attending the HOME football schedule this season under the Friday night lights

Here’s to packed sidelines, stadium lights, dirty jerseys, big plays, and another season of freezing my butt off with a camera in my hands. 😂📸

Flashback to 2024 Antwerp v. Hilltop and with a rebuilt body I think I’m in for some FRESH images this season 👉🏼👆🏼

Extended family! This was such an outgoing and fun family to work beside! Even during challenges we were able to pull it off! I am so thankful for return clients who recommended me and trusted me to capture generations of love 🥰

Q1 was a much-needed reset after graduation — time to breathe, regroup, and sharpen the vision.

Now it’s time to get back to work and make this year a great one. I’m officially booking sessions and ready to help with all your photo needs — families, seniors, couples, kids, milestones…I’m here 🤍

At this time I’ll be keeping sessions natural light only (no off-camera flash/setup), which means simple, clean, authentic images with a relaxed experience. 📸

Looking forward leaning into my hobbies and have even tossed around actually starting to craft and draw again! Eek!! without the added stress that college brought in the remaining year or so. I’m so grateful for all that checked in and congratulated me and I’m so thankful for the kind words. I look forward to seeing you all!
