So cute.

Went to make a reel and realized this is literally the only two things I say. It’s all I’ll hear at future photo shoots 😂 brb while I look up synonyms.

Juniors!! It’s time to book a mini session for THIS spring. Did you know several DFW schools have a yearbook deadline at the end of August-mid September? Booking a mini or even full session for this Spring ensures enough turn around time for editing and that you have your gallery ready to go when school starts.

Here’s the catch, you’re still growing and changing so much in your senior year… so why take them so early? My recommendation to all of my families is to book me for the “Senior Year” package. It comes with a 2 hour photo credit that can be redeemed all at once or split up into 3 sessions. Most clients choose to do sessions in the spring of junior year so you have photos for yearbook, fall of senior year and a cap and gown session just before graduation. The last two sessions capture you IN your senior year and give you fresh content for invitations, grad parties, and of course Senior Sunday 😏

Send me a DM and mention the Senior Year Package for more info!

Senior photos aren’t just you looking at the camera smiling. They’re documenting what you have been working on, known for most, and capturing your personality.

I’m Joy, Dallas-Fort Worth grad photographer specializing in YOU. After 4 years of late night study sessions, difficult AP classes, college applications, dorm supply lists, and don’t get me started on the scholarship process 😬 Your senior photo session is a time to relax and capture your interests, hobbies, extracurriculars, and most importantly your personality.

Anyone can take a picture, but I’ll document YOU. (And don’t worry, I’m an expert at posing!)

Family photos, as stressful and annoying as they can be to logistically have taken 🤪 will always be a priority to me. I grew up with an older brother and two older sisters. My parents were loving and kind, and gave me an amazing childhood.

Digital cameras and phone cameras didn’t become common technology until I was closer to high school. If you wanted family photos you had to go to a studio with a film photographer and you’d only get so many prints. It was just never in the budget to invest in something like that. By the time digital photography became the norm, my older sister Hannah had passed away, my brother had joined the military and moved away and my oldest sister moved out of state. Things were so different from what they “should” be that we still didn’t always do a good job of taking photos when we were all together.

Christmas 2020 we all went to Florida and stayed in a beach house together. This was the last time we would all be together before my family unit moved out of the country and my dad passed away. Thankfully we set up a phone and took a photo of us all together.

This thanksgiving we scheduled it in to take photos of our family as it is. It still stings knowing our dad wasn’t there, and to wonder how many kiddos our sister Hannah would have added to the bunch. But I think it’s moments like this that the word “bittersweet” or the phrase “the already, but the not yet” exists. We live in the hope of Jesus that one day we will see our loved ones again and that He will wipe away all of our tears. But we also live in the joy of the rest of us being together and seeing all of our babies play, giggle and have the time of their lives.

So take the photos. Book the session- whether it’s with me or someone else. Take the photos before things change, invest in quality wedding photography so your children’s children can look back at your family as it was on your wedding day. If it’s not in your budget for professional annual family photos, pull out the phone and prop it against a book. Tomorrow is never promised. ❤️‍🩹
