I am incredibly honored to share that my image “Divine Expectations” was awarded a Silver Medal at the Professional Photographers of America 2026 International Photographic Competition and advanced into the Top 16 bracket for Maternity and Newborn Portrait Artists worldwide.

Out of more than 2,000 professional images submitted, only 128 earned Silver, and being recognized among the final 16 in this category is something I will forever be proud of.

This award represents years of dedication to safety, artistry, and creating meaningful heirloom portraits for the families who trust us with their most precious moments.

Thank you to every mama, family, and tiny miracle who has stepped into our studio. You are the reason I get to create work that matters.

I’m over here working on client sessions, and this sweet little one has me thinking about how quickly the years fly by. Just this past weekend I dropped my own “baby girl” off at college. She wasn’t quite this tiny when she was born (9 pounds!) but it still feels like it all happened in a blink. Take the pictures and soak it all in while you can.
