Tristan & Matthew 🤍

Five years together and next October they'll be saying I DO!

After a rainy morning, the skies cleared up just in time for the prettiest evening! We started at the Tyler Rose Garden and ended at The Grove for a little date night vibe, and I'm OBSESSED with how these turned out!

Can't wait to celebrate these two on their big day! 🥹🤍

Help me congratulate the new Mr. & Mrs. Stedman! ♡

Kortney & Ty’s wedding day was one of those days that just proves you don’t need sunshine to have a beautiful wedding day.

It was gloomy, it rained, and the skies definitely did their own thing all day. But these two? They were just HAPPY. So much love, so much laughter, and so much joy surrounded them that you almost forgot about the weather altogether.

And honestly, the rain gave their day a little magic of its own. The moody skies, everyone cozied up together, and these two just completely soaking in the fact that they were finally MARRIED.

Kortney & Ty, thank you for letting me be there to capture it all. I hope when you look back at these photos, you remember just how loved, happy, and perfectly YOU this day was.

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Stedman!! 🥂

I hear cooler weather is coming... or so the weatherman says.

Meanwhile, I’m still out here SWEATING and it’s almost October. Texas, please get it together.

Who else is READY for sweater weather, crisp mornings, and actually enjoying being outside again?!

Are you Team Sweater Weather or Team Keep the Summer?

Kortney + Ty 🤍

These two already had GORGEOUS engagement photos from their trip to Colorado this summer, so we decided to do something a little different and make an engagement video instead!

I loved getting to switch things up and do something outside of the norm with them at Barley Hill. And honestly, these two made my job way too easy.

Now we just need October 3rd to hurry up and get here! 🤍

Just another reminder of why I enacted my Minor Privacy Policy over a year ago.

The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals recently issued a ruling involving the private possession of AI-generated CSAM depicting fictional children and constitutional protections within the home.

For me, it is another reminder of exactly why I made this decision in the first place.

AI is advancing faster than the laws meant to protect our children, and I refuse to wait for those laws to catch up before doing what I can on my end.

For over a year now, I have enforced a policy that I will not publicly share identifiable images of my clients' children. Their faces remain private.

And something I think is important to share is this:

It has not hurt my bookings.

If anything, I've had parents tell me how much they appreciate the policy. I've found that families feel respected knowing that I'm thinking about their children's privacy beyond simply taking beautiful photographs of them.

Parents still receive their full galleries and can share their own children's images however they choose. I simply made the decision that, as a business, I would no longer make that choice for them by putting identifiable images of their children on my public platforms.

I cannot control what technology becomes capable of.

I cannot control what laws are passed or how courts interpret them.

But I can control what I contribute to the internet.

I've always wanted to make an honest attempt at living and running my business on the right side of history. If there is even a chance that a publicly available image of a child can be taken, manipulated, or used in ways they never consented to, that's enough for me.

The safety, privacy, and respect of the children entrusted to me will always come before marketing my business.

That was true when I enacted this policy over a year ago, and with everything we're seeing AI become capable of, I stand behind that decision more than ever.
