I think sweetheart sessions always end up becoming some of my favorite shoots. There is just something about capturing the love between two people that just makes my heart melt and I LOVE couples that choose to have photos done outside of their engagement or their wedding day! Capturing memories throughout your entire relationship, whether you […]
This week is probably one of my favorites on the blog for quite some time…because I’m getting to share SO many shoots that I love!!! Lena’s senior session last week quickly became a new favorite and I’ve been dying to share it! She was the very last one of my 2016 spokesmodels to do her […]

I’m a fall girl for sure (cozy sweaters, anyone?) but I just can’t get enough of the beautiful blooms + amazing light we’ve had so far this spring!!! Nikki’s senior session last week was no exception…I just adore this girl! Not only is […]
Ohhhh, this senior session. Right when I met Emily, I could just tell she had the sweetest heart. She is SO much fun and rocked an incredible red lip color so, right when she walked in the studio, her bubbly personality and style instantly made us BFFS 🙂 Not only is she absolutely BEAUTIFUL, but […]
And I’m back again with another one of my incredible spokesmodel’s senior sessions-YAY!!!
