Corinne’s senior session was my LAST spokesmodel shoot of 2016!!! WHAT!? Where has time gone!? Even though her shoot was at the end of November, we had amazing weather and I was so surprised to still have colorful leaves on the ground! So lucky!! We did Corinne’s session at some of my favorite locations in […]
Alyssa is just so dang cute I can barely stand it. I absolutely LOVE working with her and her senior session was no exception! We had the most amazing fall weather and beautiful colors-and her outfits were on point, as per usual. We photographed at some of my favorite rural locations and had the best […]

I first met Katie at a shoot she booked with me over two years ago. I still remember loving her adorable personality and bubbly energy from the very beginning!! Then, Katie attended a one-on-one mentoring session with me and we became closer friends. Because she’s a wedding photographer, too, we always ran into each other […]
