This summer has been one beautiful session after another, and I can't get enough. 🤍

Kolbie's session was one I had been looking forward to from the moment her mama booked. Every detail came together so perfectly—the cutest outfits, beautiful locations, and can we talk about that bouquet?! WOWZA. It was absolutely stunning and added the perfect finishing touch.

But more than all of that, Kolbie is just a beautiful soul. Kind, genuine, and an absolute joy to spend the evening with.

I'm so thankful I get to wander, capture all this goodness, and tell stories like hers. What a beautiful summer it's been. ✨

First of all, thank you so much to everyone who has reached out asking about photos from fair. It truly means so much that you’d think of me. 🤍

I just wanted to clear up a little confusion. The photos you may have seen me taking around the rings were of my senior clients. Those sessions were scheduled before fair, which is why I was photographing those kiddos and their families. I did capture a few others throughout the week, but I wasn’t photographing the shows as an official ringside photographer, so I can’t guarantee I have images of everyone.

If you’re looking for ringside photos from this year’s shows, I definitely recommend checking out Steph's Studio. She has been capturing exhibitors throughout fair and has some wonderful images.

Thank you all again for your kind messages and support. I appreciate every one of you, and I hope this helps point you in the right direction!

My schedule is booked until September, but I wanted to create a few special evenings at my outdoor studio for those of you who have been thinking about booking. Since these sessions are close to home, I'm able to offer a handful of golden hour dates before my fall schedule begins.

These Golden Hour Sessions are available exclusively at my outdoor studio on the following evenings:

✨ August 11
✨ August 18
✨ August 25
✨ August 28
✨ August 31

This little western-inspired space has become one of my favorite places to create. The golden evening light, rustic details, and peaceful setting always come together to capture so much magic and goodness.

$325 | Up to 3 outfits | 30 edited images
$100 due at booking, $225 day of session.

Perfect for seniors, couples, or if you've been wanting to treat yourself!

These are the only session dates I have available before September, and they're only being offered at my outdoor studio.

If you'd like one, send me a message and we'll get your spot reserved!

Let’s dream a little…

If you were planning your senior session today, what’s one thing you’d want to include?

Your dog? Your Bible? A favorite location? Grandpa’s pickup? Your sport?

What is your one thing that shouts YOU?

I truly believe the best senior sessions tell your story. I’d love to hear what would make yours feel the most like you.

Fair week is finally here... and if you know us, you know what that means. 🤍

One of my favorite little traditions the last few years has been grabbing Bayleigh after fair and heading out to my outdoor studio with her sheep. No pressure. No show ring. No judges. Just documenting this little piece of her world.

These sheep have been a huge part of not only Bayleigh's life, but ours too. They've been part of countless early mornings, late nights, road trips, feed runs, laughs, tears, championships, heartbreaks, and memories we'll never forget.

Some of these sheep are still here, living their best lives and soaking up all the scratches, treats, and nose kisses. Others have moved on to greener pastures. That's the hard part of this journey... but the memories never leave, and neither do these photos.

And then there's Brodie... the bestest boy. 🤍 I truly don't think there will ever be another one like him. Gentle, patient, and always taking care of his girl. He still gets all the scratches and nose kisses his heart could ever want.

And Rocket... Brodie's best buddy. He may tower over Brodie, but he's every bit as kindhearted. Just a big ol' teddy bear.

I love documenting this season of life because I know it won't last forever. Someday, these photos won't just be pictures of sheep... they'll be reminders of a chapter that shaped our family in the very best way.

Here's to another fair week. Soak up every second. Even the long, hot days. One day you'll wish you could have just one more. 🤍

✨ Did you know...

Every client who books with me gets access to my exclusive location guide!

It's packed full of locations I've personally scouted, with photos I've taken at each one so you can actually see what your session could look like before you choose.

But I don't just hand you a guide and say, "Good luck!" I work with you to coordinate your outfits and help choose the location that best fits your style and vision. The little details make a big difference, and I love helping bring it all together.

From wide-open pastures and rustic country roads to the river, downtown, hidden gems, and everything in between... there's a place for just about every vibe.

The guide includes both public locations and private properties where I've been given permission to photograph. (I always ask first—we don't trespass over here. 😉)

And the best part? It's always growing! I'm constantly wandering, exploring, and adding new places because there are so many beautiful spots to capture the goodness.

Finding the perfect location is one of my favorite parts of the planning process, and I can't wait to help you create a session that feels completely ✨YOU!✨

These are the moments I love most.

The quiet, unexpected interactions that happen naturally. I just happened to look over and catch this sweet moment between Grandpa and his great-grandchild. These are the memories worth holding onto.
