✨Details do not need to be complicated. I love my flat lay designs when it comes to capturing rings, shoes, dress etc… but one of my favorite things to do is utilize the surroundings at the venue to draw my inspiration from on the day of your wedding. It could be an elegant chair in the corner by a window, a coffee table that has a beautiful natural pattern or even a tile floor that creates dimension. It requires creativity in the quiet moments and really gets that mindset aligned and sets the tone for the rest of the day. Even if the timeline says for me to be there at a certain time, I will always show up early to start details 🫶🏻. If I’m sipping my coffee or gently humming to the music in the bridal suite, don’t mind me 🤪. I’m just in dream mode ✨

✨The Scanes Family ✨

I love having Georgeen and Mike as a neighbor. If any of you know Georgeen, you know she is pure light + joy and one of the strongest women I have ever met 🫶🏻. I had the opportunity to explore their private ranch and it was one of the most beautifully preserved pieces of Texas I have ever seen. It was a true gem to be part of these memories 🙏🏻

Hello 2026!

For the past several years, I’ve intentionally begun each new year offline. This year, that pause lasted nine weeks. While social media often equates visibility with productivity, the truth is our most fruitful seasons have often happened quietly.

January and February marked our busiest start to a year yet, with seven weddings secured during this period for 2026 and 2027. I’m deeply grateful for the trust our couples continue to place in us.

For nearly a decade, we limited our calendar to ten weddings annually so I could remain fully present at home while Brady and Avery were young. Family has always been the foundation of every business decision we’ve made and we were so grateful that Eric’s job and my job allowed us to remain present in their lives, as it still does today 🙏🏻

When he began school this past August, we stepped confidently into this next chapter — expanding the studio full time while maintaining the intentional experience our clients expect.

This year also marks ten years in business.
Ten years of documenting first looks, legacy moments, growing families, and the quiet in-between exchanges that often mean the most.

After losing my mom last year, that perspective deepened. It reinforced the weight photographs carry over time — how they become anchors to the people and seasons we love most. That awareness shapes how I approach every wedding and portrait session today.

As technology continues to evolve, what remains irreplaceable is human presence — discernment, intuition, and the lived experience behind the lens. Im thrilled to lead a few conversations around AI and how that shapes the field of creativity. Please stay tuned for more here.

I’m stepping into this year with clarity, gratitude, and great anticipation for what’s ahead.
Here’s to a new season! Thank you for each and every person who has supported us along the way 🫶🏻
