A little throwback to sweet newborn days with baby Ruby. There’s something quietly beautiful about those early weeks — the tenderness, the stillness, the way motherhood reshapes everything.

Forever grateful to document seasons that pass far too quickly.

Call it a love story — thoughtful branding, intentional planning, and imagery designed to serve a business well through every season. 💘

This is what it looks like to create a visual library that keeps working long after the session day.

Just the kids — full of personality, curiosity, and the sweetest little details that change far too quickly. These are the kinds of images that become even more meaningful with time.

Slowing down and serving clients well has shaped our business in ways I couldn’t have imagined early on. More isn’t always better — especially in this season of our family’s life.

With baby #3 arriving soon 🤍 I’m embracing a different pace and grateful for it. We’re still accepting a limited number of 2026 clients, and I’d love to serve you if it’s the right fit.

Such a fun, relaxed session with Chase & Leslie. We kept things simple and clean, letting their connection do the heavy lifting.
Also — if you’re in need of a realtor, Chase is one of the hardest workers I know and truly serves his clients well. Check out .

This project was a long time coming — and such a fun one. When Donna reached out about updated brand imagery for her INCREDIBLE caramel corn, I was all in. I mean, how can you turn down such a tasty project?

From heritage-inspired storytelling (think Cracker Jacks 2.0) to clean, modern visuals that reflect an allergen-friendly product, every detail was intentionally planned to serve Krazea Korn well across platforms.

Beyond grateful for clients who trust our creative process with their dreams — and yes, this is the BEST caramel corn I’ve ever had.

Bonus: it DOES NOT stick to your teeth. 🙌

Seven years married to Kyle ❤️

The more I know him, the more I love him. Intentional, thoughtful, adventurous, fan of good food, faithful, tender-hearted, patient.

I love you, Kyle James.

Recently, I had the privilege of helping create the imagery for his newest album, and it was one of those projects that stays with you. Thoughtful, creative, purposeful from start to finish.

Cory has worked so faithfully to craft songs that speak encouragement and steady hope—reminding us of the refuge we find in God. I’m truly honored to support a project with such depth and intention behind it.

These past few years, I’ve fallen in love with the tangible side of what I do—albums that feel like treasured books, frames that give your home a sense of belonging, artwork that doesn’t hide on a screen but greets you in the spaces where real life happens.

To my 2025 clients: thank you for inviting me into your homes, your stories, and your walls. It’s a gift to create pieces that bring daily joy and lasting meaning.

When I’m not behind the camera, one of the things I love most is studying and teaching the Bible to women. Lately, I’ve spent many quiet hours with open pages, tracing the threads of God’s faithfulness through His Word — letting the words of God shape the way I think, love, and live.

The more I study, the more convinced I am that there’s truly nothing more valuable you can give your time and attention to. The Word of God is living and active. It strengthens, convicts, comforts, and anchors us in a world that constantly shifts and demands our focus elsewhere.

Since we’re on personal updates, I’ve had this song on repeat. I love how it illustrates the paradoxes of following Jesus. His Kingdom is not of this world, and yet it’s the only one that will last.

His Kingdom is not of this world or of any
Kingdom whose ruler’s face is on a penny.
He comes to make all things bright and put a new wine in us.
He’s chosen the small things to outlast the great,
The meek and the merciful to shine through the hate.
Though it seems some days that Hell and its gates are prevailing—
Oh, say can you see the Kingdom within us
Is the Kingdom of Jesus.
