It's been a bit quiet over here mostly because every session is a gift . But here is a little sneak peek of this sweet boy! Congratulation Jenna Clymer & Clif Clymer he sure is pretty perfect!

These photos ***Disclaimer*** Not my photos (not sure who these belong to) ... 9 years (this week) ago we made our annual trip to the Big Apple to see the Christmas Tree and was asked to marry this pretty amazing guy. He promised me the world that day (he delivered), made promises of what type of Husband and Father he would be. We still have these hanging in our home, and it is our constant reminder of a magical day. Also, we use the photos to remember the exact spot (we can never seem to remember when we go back up every year). I remember seeing someone off to the side taking photos of the moment. I also remember freaking out trying to find that person because I wanted a copy of those photos. Fast forward to Christmas that year, I received these images as a gift. You see Travis (my husband) arranged for someone to take pictures of the moment which captured those memories for forever. The point of this story... Are you thinking of popping the question soon? Ever thought having the moment captured? Let’s chat about what we can do to preserve an amazing moment in time!!!

It feels like just yesterday we were doing this same session with baby AJ. So happy you are bringing another beautiful babe into this world! Side note, this Mama looks AMAZING!!!!

Hey Christmas mini clients, check your email!!! All galleries have been delivered.

2 days later at 1:00 AM, I am finally done importing my Christmas minis. My Christmas minis this year followed right in line with 2020. Rainy, confusing and just sad! I am so thankful for clients who are flexible and understanding. Some families endured rain, cold and a bit of wind a couple weeks ago. This past week I was so grateful for Jacki Brian Cunningham from Whispering Oaks Vineyard who was so nice to let me rent their beautiful space last minute. This handsome, full of energy, light and life boy was my last session of the day on Sunday and this was the last photo I took. This makes it all worth it!!!!

Finished up my last wedding from 2020 and trying to figure out how to go back to this perfect wedding day!

Tis the season to be grateful! You see I’m super grateful for these doors. These doors that use to be a garage door. Three years ago we converted our garage into a studio. These doors enter into the studio where I am now able to do newborn sessions (if someone doesn’t want them in their home) and first birthday sessions all year long. These doors gave me the opportunity to grow my photography in many ways.

14 hours of traveling yesterday! The kids rocked without a single complaint and guess what... I got a crazy amount of editing done (insert happy dance)!
