Her edge of becoming.

The woman she is today, washed away cleaned by the salt
She’s making room for the mother she will be reborn as.

Salt on her skin.
Life in her belly.
Love overflowing.

One last surrender before she is changed forever. 🌊

Lord, let me live to 120…

One day, my children will need someone to bathe them and put them to bed again.
To help them eat and soothe them to sleep.
They will become old and gray
and deep wrinkles will line their faces.
I want to be there like I was in the beginning, like now.. brushing their hair and pulling the blankets over their shoulders.
Lord, let me live to 120.
Because I will never be finished being their mother.

I remember when it was just a girl and a boy who fell in love.

Before the babies.
Before the house changed.
Before the noise and the schedules and the little feet running through the halls.

Before everyone called her Mama…

she was mine.

For almost fifteen years, I’ve had the best seat in the house.

I’ve watched babies become children.

I’ve watched personalities change, dreams change, plans change.

I’ve been there for the laughter that filled entire rooms and the tears nobody else saw. I’ve laid quietly nearby through the hard days. I’ve watched the chaos, the celebrations, the exhaustion, the ordinary mornings..

I never needed to understand any of it.

I just needed to be close.

That’s the thing about us dogs…

We see it all.

Every version of you.

And I remember her before motherhood.
Before little voices called for her all day long. Before her arms were always carrying babies and groceries and laundry and a thousand invisible things.

And if my old eyes could tell her anything now, it would be this:

I saw you.

I saw the girl you were.
I saw the woman you became.

Now my body is tired. My steps aren’t what they used to be, and somehow I know our time together is becoming more precious.

But please don’t only remember the ending.

Remember the house I followed you through. The floors I slept on. The babies I watched you bring home. The tears I sat beside. The ordinary days when you didn’t realize we were making memories.
Someday my spot may be empty.
You won’t hear my paws coming down the hallway.
And maybe another dog will be loved here someday.

But there will never be another me.
Because I was there at the beginning.
I knew you when you were just a girl in love with a boy, dreaming about the life ahead of you.

And somehow, I got lucky enough to stay long enough to watch you build it.
You always called me your first baby.

But you were my whole life.

And if fifteen years is all I get with you…
what a beautiful life it has been. 🤎
Love Bowen , your good boy.

One of the sweetest gifts photography has given me is the chance to watch people’s stories unfold right in front of my eyes🤎

Just last year, I was photographing Courtney & Austin’s love on their wedding day—capturing the beginning of forever, the vows, the happy tears, and all the little moments in between.

And now, one year later, I get to photograph them in an entirely new season… Courtney carrying their sweet baby boy. 🥹

There is something so incredibly special about returning clients. Watching two people become husband and wife, then watching their love make room for a whole new little life. These are the moments that remind me why I love what I do so deeply.

Congratulations, you two. What a beautiful year it has been watching your story grow. I already cannot wait to meet the sweetest little boy who gets to call you Mom & Dad. 🤎

You get taller and taller, and
I stay the same height.
Your eyelids close on their own, as I turn out the light.

The smallest shoes I’ve ever seen grow bigger every day, and mine stay the same as you learn to walk away.

You may forget these early days, but I never will, as you follow your dreams, and I sit stone-still in the nursery glider where I first fell for you.
I’ll be here if you need me, I hope you always do.

So grow tall without guilt, become one with the stars, knowing your shape is molded into my arms.

And that wherever you wander, and whatever you do, you may outgrow me but I’ll never outgrow you.

Some surprises are almost impossible to keep… especially when it’s your best friend who’s been saying, “We’re definitely done.” 😂

And then God smiled and said, “I’ve got one more.” 🤍

Photographing this moment felt so much bigger than taking pictures. It was getting to witness another chapter of a story I’ve had the privilege of watching unfold for the last few years.

You’ve always made motherhood look beautifully wild—raising babies, loving fiercely, working endlessly, and somehow still making everyone around you feel at home. And now, somehow, your heart is making room for one more little one.

I know this wasn’t the plan… but sometimes God’s sweetest gifts are the ones we never saw coming.

Little one, you are already so loved. You have the most incredible mama waiting for you, a strong leading father and two wild sisters to look up to, this family is about to become even more beautiful than it already is.

Here’s to God’s perfect timing, unexpected miracles, and the kind of love that somehow always finds room for one more. 🤍

I love you so much Samantha

When they say boys will be boys?
I hope they don’t just mean tiny tornadoes and thunderous feet.
My son is also the soft glow of the moon, with tender temples beneath my kiss.
He radiates yellow -
like the blooms he notices on our walks, golden honey, slouching butter in the sun.
He whispers I love you, holds my hand tender and steady.
He shares gentle thoughts from under his scruffy hair.
And yes, he is loud,
but watch how he uses that same voice to care.
His heart is unguarded, mine is rewritten.
Yes, boys will be boys.
And aren’t they wonderful…

If you have been wondering what a mini session with me could look like .. this is it 🤎✨
