Because someday, I hope they’ll open that storybook, walk past that portrait, or flip through an album and remember more than just what that moment looked like.

I hope they remember what it felt like. And I hope they get to feel it all over again, even decades later.

Now, I’m curious. What’s the most random thing that’s ever brought back a memory you hadn’t thought about in years?

Some things are too meaningful to leave sitting in your camera roll. Your walls deserve to tell your story, too. Ready to turn your favorite moments into artwork? Let’s plan your portrait session.

I'm a professional photographer, and today, I didn't want to be photographed.

How many of us are waiting? Waiting to lose the weight. To feel more confident. To have more time for ourselves. To finally feel like the version of ourselves we want to remember.

But here's the thing. The people who love us aren't waiting for that version of us. They're loving us right now.

And this moment? It's already becoming a memory.
So find the person who cheers you on. Who helps you see the love, the laughter, and the beauty that you might be overlooking. And please, get in the photograph.

Not because you feel ready. But because someday, someone you love will be so incredibly grateful you did.

If this struck a chord, and you're ready to exist in memories comment "ME." Not because you're alone in feeling this way, but because maybe it's time we remind each other that we deserve to be part of the memories we're so busy making for everyone else. 🤍

Simply Me. 🤍

What a beautiful day celebrating the children who make all of this worth it.

Our Simply Me Art Show was filled with so much joy, so many beautiful portraits, and so many people who showed up to celebrate these incredible kids. We are so grateful to every family, friend, and supporter who came out and made the day so special.

At Jacie Leigh Studios, we believe every child deserves to be seen for exactly who they are in this moment.

We were also honored to support FOUND., an organization working to make sure children in our community have access to basic necessities like food, clothing, hygiene items, and school supplies. Their mission is to remove the barriers that can keep a child from learning, growing, and thriving.

If you’d like to support the work FOUND. is doing for local children, you can donate here:

A special thank you to Sandra for taking the time to share this story and highlight what Simply Me is all about. We are so grateful you helped us tell the story behind these portraits and this event.

And Laura Beth, thank you for opening the doors of Play Street Museum and allowing us to bring this little art show to life in such a fun and beautiful space. We are so grateful for your generosity and for helping make this day possible.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported, donated, shared, and celebrated with us. These children are beautiful, and we feel incredibly lucky to get to capture them just as they are.

This is why we do what we do. 🤍

It’s officially our favorite time of year. The ‘ber months…you know what that means!🎅🏻🎄🍪

For nearly a decade, families have walked through our doors for something that has become so much more than a visit with Santa.

Every year brings a new story, a new experience and a little more Christmas magic to add to the memories already made.

And somehow, we’ve made it all the way to Year Ten.

We only have 9 Santa Storybook sessions remaining for this season, so if you’ve been thinking about joining us this year, now is the time to reach out. Comment Santa for more information!❤️

Some families walk into your studio and instantly remind you why this work matters so much. 🤍

These sweet babies are the kind that make baby fever feel very, very real. The tiny details, the lovies, the sibling kisses, the way they love on each other so naturally, all of it just melts me. For this session, they chose artwork that tells each child’s story beautifully to remember this season exactly as it is.

This is why I love creating finished artwork so much. These aren’t just images to scroll past. They are little pieces of their childhood, ready to be enjoyed every day.

To this precious family, thank you for trusting me with your babies and for loving these portraits as much as I do. I adore you all. 🤍

BEAUTIFUL YOU SPOTLIGHT | Mandy

Some stories aren’t defined by what was lost, but by the One who carried them through it.

Amanda shared that by the age of 33, she had lost her grandmother, her mom to cancer, and the last immediate family member who had helped raise her. She walked through seasons of grief, depression, and learning how to navigate a life that looked nothing like she expected.

But she also shared something even greater.

That God never left her.

He met her in the heartbreak, gave her strength she didn’t know she had, and slowly began rebuilding what grief had broken. Even years later, He continued writing a story of restoration in ways she never could have imagined.

As Amanda says, “My life is not defined by what I’ve lost, but by the One who has carried me through it all.”

It was an incredible honor to photograph this chapter of her story.

Thank you, Amanda, for trusting me with it. 🤍
