🌟BIG BIG ANNOUNCEMENT🌟
If you haven’t noticed, things have been a little bit quiet around here. Well, after much thought and prayer this is my semi retirement post!!
•
It has been more than a joy to capture all the love stories and memories that I had over the past 11 years but it’s time to hang up the cameras! I can’t put into words what it has meant to be able to capture such special moments of life with you all! I am forever grateful for your support and love and willingness to hire me over and over again! As sad as it is to see this chapter of my life close I know that the time I had was still so special! THANK YOU to everyone that was part of this journey- I can’t name you all but you know who you are!!!
•
After becoming a mom of two, something really changed in me and just made leaving for wedding weekends that much harder. I say “semi” because I’m still not sure what the future holds. For now, I know weddings will be on hold. However, I think there will still be time I will pick up my camera. SO if you want to still keep up with me feel free to follow along my personal account where I’ll still share life!
•
MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL!!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Ps. If you still have an anniversary session or something booked with me- don’t worry I’ll still be here for those moments!

There have been LOTS of first for PBJ recently!! Lots of first means lots of new faces, which I love! 💕 BUT... I equally love sharing not so new faces! Why?? It means celebrating some kind of life moment that I am honored to say I got to be a part of, capture, and now share!! 🎉

It seems like yesterday I was getting pumped for Riley & Anna’s big day, but they're a month into YEAR 2 of marriage!! Crazy how time flies!! 🎉 Happy FIRST Anniversary Mr. & Mrs. Mayes!!

Wishing you two the very best as you begin YEAR 2 of married life!!✨

Every dog needs a baby!! 🐶 🍼 Especially when they’re as cute as this one!! RIGHT?!

SO excited for this sweet co-worker!! We thought we were excited for her and her hubby when they got their new puppy… THEN we were even MORE excited to find out they were expecting ANOTHER (less furry 😆) addition to their family!!

I just know they are going to be PROS at this whole parent thing!! 🎉 Not sure if their cats agree… but here's some proof that they’ve been practicing holding their little girl 💕 Sophie Rae is one loved and lucky girl!!

There are SO many moments between the bride and groom and their moms and dads... it is ALWAYS hard to choose just a few favorites from EACH wedding!! So choosing my favorite moments from all my 2020 weddings... almost impossible!! 😆

Almost impossible, but not quite! Cheers to celebrating ALL moms and dads!! Especially all those who play a special role in the lives of my brides and grooms!! 🎉

Mother's Day and Father's Day may just be two days out of the year, but I say they should be celebrated anyday!! 😁 And that's not JUST because I am also a mom 😉

What moments with your loved ones do you cherish most?? Maybe your wedding day? Maybe learning to drive? Maybe whipping up some sweet treats in the kitchen??

Wedding days with you are always some of the very best days, but 05/30/15 will always be my favorite!! 💕

This is one of my all time favorite pictures, and definitely my favorite from our wedding day. We started the tradition of taking a picture on this bench when...
🎓 Will tagged along and jumped in on a few of my HS senior pictures.
👰🏽‍♀️🤵🏽‍♂️ Then we took our bridal party pictures here, so obviously we had to make it happen!
💙 Then we announced the exciting news of sweet baby Drew almost 2 years ago! Wow!!
(You can scroll for proof! 😆)

We also have a tradition of following the “Anniversary Gifts by Year “ and this year... my gift has a little something to do with this first picture!! 😍 Can’t wait to share!!

I love you so much Will!! Thank you for standing *and sitting* by me each and every day for 6 years as my husband, and every day before then too!! 💕 Cheers to Year 7 as Mr. & Mrs. Richter!!
