I recently made a big update behind the scenes to make booking a photo session a whole lot easier.

No more back-and-forth messages trying to figure out dates, pricing, or details. Everything is now laid out in one place so you can:

✔️ See session options
✔️ View pricing
✔️ Check availability
✔️ Book your session in just a few minutes

If you’ve been thinking about updating family photos, getting senior pictures scheduled, or refreshing your business headshots, this is the easiest it’s ever been.

Take a look and grab a spot that works for you 👇

Fall sessions will be here before we know it, and those dates tend to fill quickly. I still have a few spots open this summer if you’d rather get ahead of it.

It was great being at the farmer’s market last night with Mack’s Golden Grounds!

Before things got going, I had a chance to walk around with my camera and check out what everyone brought. I’m always amazed at the variety each week; there’s a lot of good stuff out there!

It’s a great way to connect with people and support small businesses… and honestly just a good excuse to slow down and look around for a bit.

If you’re a small business and have been thinking about better ways to show off your products or maybe it’s been a while since your last staff photos, I’d love to help. This is the kind of work I really enjoy.

I know it’s not quite as exciting as chasing the Union Pacific Big Boy through Nebraska this weekend, but it’s still pretty amazing how many trains roll through here every single day.

Caught this one while out exploring for the Nebraska Passport.

I think we all do this… Take a trip, shoot a bunch of photos, share a few, and then never really look at the rest again.

Lately, I’ve been so focused on growing this photography business that I kinda forgot why I enjoy carrying a camera in the first place.

So I went back.

These are from a trip to Estes Park / RMNP a few years ago. Photos I never edited or just never shared. Figured I’d start posting a few as a simple before & after series instead of letting them sit on a hard drive forever.

Nothing fancy… just getting back to enjoying it again. Enjoy the after, but keep swiping to see the before.

Do you ever go back and find photos you forgot you even took?

I’ve been working behind the scenes on something to make things a little easier for you.

Booking a session shouldn’t feel complicated.

So I finally moved everything into one place. You can see options, pick what fits, and lock in your date without the back-and-forth.

If you’ve been thinking about booking photos for your family, your senior, or your business… this is your sign.

Real talk…

90% of my job is photography.

The other 10% is:
“Hey, just act natural.”

(while holding a camera in your face)

Appreciate everyone who trusts me through that part 😅

Most mornings look a lot like this.

Early light.
Quiet.
Nowhere to be in a hurry.

Easy to miss if you’re not paying attention… but moments like this are kind of the whole point.

Not every photo session goes how you expect…

And honestly, those usually end up being the best ones.

Kids run around.
Wind doesn’t cooperate.
Someone’s laughing when they’re “not supposed to.”

That’s the stuff I’m actually looking for.

The real moments > the perfect ones.

It’s been a full week, and I’m ready for a slower pace this weekend.

Some Saturdays you’ll find me at Mack’s Golden Grounds helping Katelin behind the scenes and catching up with familiar faces as they come through the door.

But today, I get to slow down a bit, enjoy a good cup of coffee, spend some time with a book I’ve been working through, and maybe even try to perfect my latte art (still a work in progress).

It’s moments like this that remind me how much I appreciate the pace of small-town life. The connections, the conversations… It’s the same reason I love photography: capturing something real, right where people are.

I’ve got a couple of session spots left for May. If you’ve been thinking about updating family photos or just want something relaxed and easy, feel free to reach out.

Enjoy the weekend, York.
