This session. ❤️ I’m going to have to break this one up into a few posts because there’s so much I love from it! These two are newly married and were so much fun to photograph!

Many of you know that I run a national photography conference called Reset | Photography Conference, Education & Community and on the last day of the conference are styled shoots that take place throughout the host city. I’m usually exhausted by this day from running the conference or I’m busy doing conference clean up, but this year I decided I wasn’t going to miss it! My sweet friend Bailey Hill - Midwest Wedding Photographer coordinated this styled shoot at the Dwell Hotel and I signed up to participate. I’m so glad I did! It’s so fun to step outside of your normal box and create in a new space! ❤️

I met up with Jessie Neilson at the Moweaqua Golf Course to grab a few golf photos before we headed out to capture her track portraits. I love that they chose to add on capturing these sports when they booked her senior session! It’s always so fun to photograph in new places and there’s nothing better than getting to capture people doing what they love! ❤️⛳️

I’m so excited for the upcoming 2027 senior season! Lots of fun new sessions are being booked and it’s going to be a special senior season!

Parker’s session this past fall was cold, windy, but full of perfect light and skies! We met up at his house and he rolled with my ideas for pics around his property. He also hand painted a mural that was so fun to incorporate! I love incorporating personal elements into sessions!

2027 seniors, it’s time to start booking your sessions! Dates will fill fast so don’t miss out! ❤️

Sam & Amanda ❤️
I’ve known Sam since he was in 8th grade and became one of my son’s best friends. Many nights have been spent hanging out in our home and hearing so much laughter from Mason, Sam & their friends. In high school he started dating Amanda & it’s been so sweet to watch their relationship grow. I was beyond honored to be asked to photograph their wedding next summer. We recently took their engagement photos and had such a great evening together (even if it was hot and humid! 🤪) I am looking forward to the wedding day & getting to photograph them again! ❤️

Another fun senior baseball session at AOHS! This one was held closer to sunset so I used my flashes to create a cool look for these photos. I love how adding dramatic lighting really shows off the golden skies!

I highly recommend adding on a sports session to your senior pics! They are so much fun to capture!

Been wearing the number 13 since he was little and completed his final baseball season. I loved getting to document this time on the field. All the practices, travel seasons, endless games led up to this moment and it’s always a bit bittersweet to see such a monumental chapter close. Mason Markham it was as such a joy capturing your senior year!

I photographed Jessie’s senior session this past fall but we wanted to do some sport pics this spring. We headed out to Central A&M’s track to capture a few of her in action. Um. Im obsessed with these! I pulled out my lights at the end and we had fun creating these images! Her golf ones are coming soon! ❤️

2027 seniors…now is the time to start booking your sessions!

I love when seniors bring their own style to their sessions. Mason brought along his MSCHF Big Red Boots with his shoe collection and I knew these shoes needed their own moment. This session was so much fun to capture.

I’m excited to offer studio pics along with my senior sessions this year for those who want them! ❤️

I’m obsessed.
Jaw on the floor.

Anna Claire did the thing. ❤️

I had so much fun photographing a styled shoot at Normally I’m too exhausted after running the conference that I skip out on styled shoot day and spend the day packing up the conference, but I decided I wanted to participate this year. I’m so glad I did and will definitely participate from now on! Styled shoots are such a fun way to push yourself creatively and photograph in locations you don’t normally have access to. It’s so good for my creative soul!

Thank you for getting this all set up! ❤️

I can’t wait for senior season to kick off. Photographing seniors is such a joy. Contact me to set up your session!
