✌🏼 DEUCES TO SOCIALS.

I’ve updated my website (go check her out 👀), and now I’m giving myself something I’ve needed for a minute- a break from social media.

Nothing dramatic. Nothing’s wrong. I’m not disappearing into the woods. 😂 I just need to log the hell off for a while.

All scheduled photo sessions are STILL A GO. 📸 And I’m absolutely still booking!

I had the privilege of photographing Michael’s military retirement celebration. It was an evening surrounded by the people who have loved him, supported him, and walked beside him through the years of service that brought him here.

There’s something incredibly meaningful about documenting the closing of a chapter like this. Behind every uniform is a whole life: sacrifice, missed moments, long days, commitment, pride, family, friendship, and a thousand stories most of us will never know.

Michael, congratulations on your retirement and on a career of service worth celebrating.

And Christine, thank you for trusting me to capture this chapter of your family’s story. 🤍

Here’s to whatever comes next. More freedom, slower mornings, new adventures, and a very well-earned “I’m retired.” 🇺🇸✨

Meet Miss Beth! 🤍

Beth came to me wanting headshots that felt fun, approachable, and authentically her as she launches and grows her travel business.

After booking her very first cruise, she did what many of us do... she researched everything. She discovered that cruising can be one of the most affordable and stress-free ways for families to travel, and that passion eventually led her to become a certified travel advisor specializing in cruises and group travel.

Now she's ready to help others plan unforgettable vacations, whether you're dreaming of a quick weekend escape or finally checking that bucket-list cruise off your list.

If you've been thinking about taking a cruise but don't know where to start, Beth would love to help guide you every step of the way.

Go give her some love and check out her website:

Thank you, Beth, for trusting me to capture the face behind your business. Here's to helping more people make memories around the world. ✈️🚢✨

Build day.

This little dream has lived in my heart for months. Countless sketches, lists, late-night ideas, and "what ifs" are finally becoming something real.

Today we started building the foundation for what I hope becomes a place where people can slow down, celebrate, reconnect, laugh, dream, and make memories they'll carry long after the sun goes down.

Every board being laid feels like one step closer to sharing this dream with all of you.

And the best part?

The very first Sunset Table experience is already booked. 🥹✨

Stay tuned... there's so much more to come.
