Yesterday was day 1 of wedding season. The sun waited until the very end to pop out, but it sure was beautiful. Congratulations Tim and Emma Vue, I can’t wait for everyone to see their sneak peek later this week!

New project announcement.

I’ve teamed up with Stacy Literski to launch NXT LVL — a new photography brand built for schools and sports.

This is focused on capturing athletes, teams, and school programs with professional, high-impact images that look like they belong in a feature post, on a banner, or in a highlight reel. From action shots to senior athlete sessions to school program content, our goal is simple: create images that stand out.

Follow along here: NXT LVL Schools+Sports
Message me if you’re interested in booking a session or coverage.

We’re excited to officially introduce ourselves as the team behind NXT LVL Schools + Sports.

We’re Stacy and Colton, and together we bring years of experience in photography, organization, and creating a smooth, professional photo day experience for schools and teams.

After attending the S**C conference, we came back even more focused on raising the standard for school and sports photography in our area. Better communication, better organization, and a better overall experience for both programs and families.

NXT LVL is built to make photo day simple for you and deliver images families actually love.

If you’re a school, team, or organization looking to improve your photo day experience, we’d love to connect.

Email us to start the conversation.

Tj & Megan 💍

The perfect mix of laughter, tears, and love— especially when TJ lost his place in his vows…it’s those moments that make their wedding theirs. It’s raw and it’s real.

From heartfelt moments to pure joy on the dance floor, their day was everything a couple could possibly dream of.

Had such a great time with Eli during his senior session! It was extra special for the whole family, taking place on his grandparents property!

At first he was a little quiet, but once he opened up his natural smile came out and made the photos even better. We got to capture his love for the outdoors and hunting with some awesome shots featuring his deer head, bow, and gun. Honestly, I joked that I want to bring him along as my model for every session—he made it way too easy!
