May was a month of firsts, fears, growth, and a whole lot of grace.

Coming out of a really dark season, I found myself carrying guilt whenever life started to feel normal again. But if this month taught me anything, it’s that healing doesn’t mean forgetting where you’ve been—it means allowing yourself to keep moving forward.

This month, I got on a plane for the first time in over a decade. I spent multiple days away from my kids, which felt absolutely terrifying. I tried new things, stepped outside of my comfort zone, and even got in the ocean. We welcomed baby chicks into the world, and now we’re preparing for our very first flower market.

Life is still busy. It’s still stressful. Some days are harder than others. But for the first time in a long time, I’m allowing myself to feel excited about what’s ahead.

May wasn’t perfect, but it reminded me that growth often happens in the middle of the messy, ordinary moments. And for that, I’m incredibly grateful.

Here’s to new chapters, new blooms, and continuing to move forward one step at a time. 🌱✨

The forecast said 100% chance of storms.

God had other plans. ☀️🤍

Cody and Chasity exchanged vows on the beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama, surrounded by family, love, and the most beautiful weather we could have asked for.

What started as a day full of uncertainty turned into a perfect reminder that sometimes the best moments happen when you simply trust the process.

Congratulations, you two. It was an honor to witness and document your day. ✨

Some sessions just feel extra meaningful. 🤍

Getting to photograph this graduate felt a little full-circle after first meeting this sweet family through his sister’s wedding. There’s something so special about being invited back into people’s lives for these big milestones.

We incorporated two things that tell his story so well — his Bible and his guitar — little pieces of who he is in this season of life. Thoughtful, grounded, creative, and stepping into a brand new chapter.

Also… can we hear it for the homeschool graduates for a second? Because I absolutely love getting to document paths that look a little different and deeply personal.

Congratulations, Sammy— I know your future is going to be a beautiful one. 🎓✨

Today I pulled out my seed starter kits, took inventory of what I already had, and finished my last seed haul for the upcoming flower season ✨

If you didn’t already know… I’m also a (very new) flower farmer 🌸
What started as a small hobby to distract my baby blues quietly grew into a deep love for flowers.

I still have so much to learn, but this journey has filled my cup in ways I never expected. I’m forever grateful for the healing it has brought me 🤍

I can’t wait to grow more blooms this year —
and welcome more beautiful families into my little piece of heaven.
