This may be one of the longer engagement session posts I’ve ever shared…because I just have SO many favorites from this Savannah session!!! But first, some back story on why I absolutely love this couple 🙂 Henry is one of Hayden’s close friends that I met for the first time on NYE last year. They […]
It has been a busy few weeks on the blog…and I’m loving it! Peak spring shooting season is my FAVORITE!! Jeffrey and Chloe traveled into town last weekend for their engagement photos in Savannah and we had the best time. We did a sunrise session (my new favorite!) and avoided some of the crowds while […]
This beautiful session has been a LONG time coming! Hallie and Robert’s wedding day was originally scheduled back in 2020. But, as we all know…2020 weddings did not go as planned.

I traveled to Palm Beach, Florida for Suzi and Sasa’s wedding day last weekend, and we decided to use Friday night to capture their ENGAGEMENT session! I have quite a few destination wedding clients who choose to utilize their engagement session during the weekend […]
These posts are so special to me every single year. It’s one of my favorite ways to reflect on the last 365 days, and to curate the work that I’m the most PROUD of after an entire year of shooting. The last two years have been weird as photographers amidst the pandemic…and it can be […]
My first official shoot living in Savannah!!! And it was DREAMY! Lilia and Steven were visiting Savannah for their anniversary last weekend. She is a photographer herself (always SUCH an honor) and she reached out to me to see if we could squeeze in a shoot while they were here. Typically, I do not offer […]
