I had such an amazing time learning, connecting, creating, and being inspired alongside so many talented photographers. I walked away with so much knowledge, encouragement, and fresh perspective.

There’s something special about stepping away from your comfort zone, investing in yourself, and remembering that growth never stops.
Thank you 📸

You’ll never get today back, as much as we want to. Capture the photos, remember the moments, cherish the memories. From your cell phone, a digital camera, a disposable camera, or a professional…it doesn’t matter-just take the photo.

Family photos aren’t just for today — they’re for the little girls who will one day look back and remember how deeply they were loved.

Let’s capture the hugs, the laughter, the running through the field barefoot, and the generations standing together in one frame. Because those moments matter.

And this sweet session...was powered by M&Ms. 😆
We aren't above bribery here. 🤷‍♀️

🚩 Red Flag or nah? 🚩

There’s a lot of debate in the photography world about hiding children’s faces online.

Some say covered faces devalue the work.
Some say it’s easier to just not post those images at all.
Some argue photographers own the rights and should be able to share whatever they want.

But honestly? I think we should normalize families making the choice to protect their identity online while still being able to share their lives, memories, and moments in a way that feels safe to them.

This isn’t about marketing.
It isn’t about algorithms.
It isn’t about “getting the shot seen.”

It’s about human connection. It’s about trust. It’s about respecting families and their boundaries, regardless of their reasoning.

Maybe they work in a field where privacy matters.
Maybe they’ve experienced trauma.
Maybe they simply don’t want their children growing up with a large digital footprint before they’re old enough to consent to it.
And honestly? They don’t owe anyone an explanation.

Photos still hold meaning even if a face isn’t shown. Sometimes they hold even more. Tiny hands wrapped around mom’s finger, the back of a child’s head leaning into dad’s shoulder, the movement, the emotion, the connection — that’s still their story.

I have no problem respecting those wishes. Families deserve to feel safe, seen, and honored in the way they choose to share their memories. 🤍

And if that "devalues" my work, then that's a hill I'm willing to die on.

Nope, I don’t cry while editing Homecoming Sessions. 🥹

Okay… maybe I make it through the session without tears, but editing them? That’s a different story. Just ask my husband.

These sessions hold such a special place in my heart as a military spouse myself.
We’ve lived this.
We’ve stood in the waiting.
We’ve counted down the days.
And there is truly nothing like the feeling of finally having your person home safely again.

Moments like these are more than photos — they’re relief, reunion, love, and home all wrapped into one.

Thank you for your service, sir. We are so grateful you are home. 🇺🇸

Watching kiddos open up to experiences is my favorite.🥰
