I had this chair in my childhood bedroom and for some reason had carried it with me along with an array of other things... I’m a sentimental collector of memories, maybe that’s part of why I love photos so much.⠀
⠀
When it came time to give this chair to someone who would love it and use it more than I would, I decided I wanted document it. I wanted to keep the memories attached to it, though the chair itself wouldn’t be present — the memories are what are important, right?⠀
⠀
So I sat down to take these and ended up taking so many & tried to capture the essence of what these memories feel like to me... fun, childlike, joyful, present... and at the same time, a weight of missing some of those things and people that are connected with those memories. I love the ability of photographs to be placeholders for all of it... to capture those feelings for myself and for others through it all.

These friends came to visit this past weekend and while it was dreary and our time was spent mostly inside, I couldn’t help but look outside to see the little red buds on the trees and the promise of Spring coming very soon.

Northwest Arkansas is a gem even now but in a few weeks, it will spring to life. I can’t wait for the weddings and sessions I have with you guys already & to hear from those of you who have yet to book! I have more openings this year for weddings and sessions — contact me now so I can get you in my books!

I’ll be in Colorado for a while these next couple months — I can’t wait to be back to the mountains🏔

If you’ve been waiting to book a session, send me an email & let’s get something planned!

🖤Reminder: I’m local to both Fayetteville, AR & Denver, CO so there are no out of state travel fees for either place at any time!

I send each of my couples a questionnaire after they book with questions like...

🤍 how did you meet / what did you love about each other at first?

🤍 how do you envision these photos *feeling*?

🤍 what are your love languages? (if you know them)

🤍 are there any important items or ideas you would like to incorporate into your photos?

and more!

I believe part of my responsibility is to document in a way that really feels like you & honors your story. So listening to you and learning about who you are is an important step!

But really... what are your love languages?! Tell me below... I’ll go first!👇🏼

Recently engaged?! Congratulations to you and your love✨ I have a surprise!!

I recently added engagement sessions to ALL of my wedding collections! I know planning stress is real & I want to make your photography experience as stress-free as possible.⠀
⠀
These sessions can be anything and anywhere you want them to be — & they don’t even have to be used as engagement sessions. Some of my couples have chosen to use them for bridal sessions or opted for saving them to be used as day-after or anniversary sessions. I love the possibilities of these & how laid back and fun they are. ⠀
⠀
If you’re celebrating your day somewhere closer to home with all of your loved ones by your side but have dreamed of having images to document your love somewhere wild like the mountains or somewhere meaningful to you like your favorite downtown coffee shop, your engagement session is an amazing time for that.⠀
⠀
You don’t have to know where you want to go or when to get the info and start thinking. Fill out my inquiry form on my site to get my full wedding guide with all of your collection options✨

This specific few moments documenting these two feels really representative of them as I’ve gotten to know them... they love to have fun and laugh together.

I love the relationships that I get to build with the couples I get the opportunity to photograph. I love how each couple expresses themselves and their love differently. I think that’s one of my main goals in my work — to incorporate unique & real expressions of your relationship rather than a copy and pasted version of someone else’s. Yours is stunning and important not because it fits into a “trendy” box but because it is your own.

My valentine & I this one time we grabbed my car & all of our belongings at the time (basically two massive suitcases, some cameras, and a cooler) and headed west. Endless adventures with you are my life’s ultimate bucket list.

What’s adventures do you have planned with your valentine — a big trip, a quiet picnic in the park, meeting the fam, dancing to some Head & The Heart while making dinner, a wedding...? This life’s full of the most beautiful adventures... and that’s what makes it magic✨

How are you spending your weekend? I’m hiding out...

We have an ice storm headed our way so it looks like ours will be spent cozying up with some movies, my all time favorite vodka sauce recipe (lmk if you want it🙌🏼), and finally spending some time planning some projects & adventures that have been on my mind... this is gonna be good👀
