Day 17 of sharing my art every day as a self-taught, small-town photographer in Elkhart and the surrounding areas until we reach 2K followers. 🩵📸

When I first picked up a camera, I never imagined it would lead me here—capturing love stories, milestones, celebrations, and the everyday moments that become our most treasured memories.

Being self-taught means every session, every challenge, and every connection has helped shape me into the photographer I am today. I'm learning, growing, and finding my community one photo at a time.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you've booked a session, shared a post, liked a photo, or simply followed along, your support means more than you know.

Here's to Day 17 and all the memories still waiting to be captured. ✨

Kimora's 3rd birthday cake smash was an absolute blast! 🎂✨

From her adorable white pearl dress to her Oreo-inspired cake, every detail was so sweet—but nothing was sweeter than her bubbly personality. She kept us laughing the entire session with her endless energy and adventurous spirit.

Let's just say she was much more interested in exploring the beautiful paths at Ogden Gardens than eating her cake—and honestly, I loved every second of it. Some little ones dive right into the frosting, while others turn their cake smash into an adventure. Either way, those authentic moments are what make these memories so special.

Happy 3rd birthday, Kimora! Thank you for letting me capture your joy, curiosity, and all the fun that comes with being three. 🖤🤍

Day 14 of posting my art every day until I reach 2K followers. 🩵📸

Fourteen days ago, I challenged myself to show up consistently, share the moments I've captured, and stop keeping my favorite images hidden away on my hard drive.

Because photography is so much more than taking pictures.

It's preserving the happy tears, the laughter, the quiet in-between moments, and the memories that deserve to be held onto for years to come.

Every photo I share represents someone's story, and it means the world to me that you're here following along on this journey.

If you're new here, welcome to Teal Memories—where your memories matter. ✨

This little corner of the internet is where I share my journey as a photographer, a social work student, and a person simply figuring life out one day at a time. You'll find beautiful moments, behind-the-scenes chaos, lessons I'm learning along the way, and a whole lot of heart. 🩵

Thank you for being here and supporting this dream of mine.

Help me reach 2K by liking, following, and telling me in the comments: what milestone or memory would you love to have professionally captured someday? 🥹📸
