I disappeared for a little while.
Life got heavy in the way it sometimes does. Some kidney stone complications turned into surgery. Recovery forced me to slow down, and somewhere in the middle of all of that I had to relearn something I constantly tell other people:
rest is not failure.
And now somehow summer is here.
The evenings are stretching longer, Oklahoma is glowing gold again, and I’m finding my way back behind the camera feeling excited, inspired, and honestly… more intentional than before.
So this summer I don’t want to chase perfection.
I don’t want overly posed moments or pressure to “look right.”
I want to photograph:
the tenderness.
the becoming.
the laughter that sneaks out in between poses.
the way your child reaches for your hand.
the way your partner looks at you when you aren’t paying attention.
the version of you that still deserves to exist in photos even if life has been messy lately.
This season feels especially sacred to me, so I’m offering $100 off all outdoor golden hour sessions this summer.
Regularly $350
Summer Golden Hour Sessions: $250
This can be used for:
• couples
• families
• motherhood
• portraits
• q***r love stories
• storytelling sessions
• “just because we deserve to remember this” sessions
I’ll also be opening up more emotionally driven model calls this summer for stories centered around identity, transformation, healing, connection, grief, softness, and becoming.
The truth is:
I’m not interested in creating perfect images.
I’m interested in creating photographs that feel like proof you were fully here.
If this feels like your season to be seen a little more gently, a little more radiant, or a just a little more true... the door is open. ✨
