First, I need to say how incredibly grateful I am for every single person who reaches out to me, trusts me with their memories, recommends me to someone else, or comes back year after year. Being busy doing something I genuinely love is a blessing I will never take for granted.
But I also want to share a little reminder as we head into one of the busiest times of the year:

Whether youโre planning family pictures, senior pictures, a birthday or milestone session, an engagement, or a wedding, booking in advance gives us the best chance of finding a date that works for both of us.
At this point, September is completely booked, including a trip to Tennessee for senior pictures, and my calendar is already filling well into the months ahead. Iโve even started booking weddings for 2027, including an incredibly exciting elopement-style wedding that is tentatively planned outside of the United States! โ๏ธ๐ค
Recently, Iโve unfortunately had to turn away a couple of people simply because their availability and mine didnโt line up. And THAT is honestly the hardest part.

If I could magically create more hours in every day and photograph everyone who wanted me, I truly would.
But because I canโt create more time, the absolute best thing you can do for both of us is plan ahead. If youโre thinking, โI know Iโm going to want senior pictures this fall,โ or โWe definitely want family pictures this year,โ or โOur anniversary/birthday/milestone is coming up,โ you do NOT have to wait until it gets closer to contact me. Reach out now. Even if your session is three or four months away or your wedding is more than a year away! We can get you on my calendar, and then neither one of us has to stress about trying to squeeze something in at the last minute.
So please know that when I say, โDonโt wait โ book in advance,โ it comes from the kindest place possible. It isnโt about creating urgency for the sake of urgency. Itโs because I would much rather be putting your name on my calendar months ahead of time than telling you later that Iโm already booked. ๐ฅบ๐ค
Thank you for keeping me busy. Thank you for trusting me with your families, your seniors, your milestones, your weddings, and some of the most important moments of your lives.
I appreciate it more than you know. ๐ค
And if you already know you want me behind the camera for something coming upโฆ this is your friendly little reminder to message me now. ๐ธโจ
