“I think a lot of people get so obsessed with the wedding and the expense of the wedding that they miss out on what the real purpose is. It's not about a production number, it's about a meaningful moment between two people that's witnessed by people that they actually really know and care about.” - Jane Seymour Heather and Donn hit the mark with their wedding; it was perfection. Heather and Donn did not have an extravagant wedding; the church was not packed full of people but it was packed full of love. Being asked to be a part of this wedding might have been one of my biggest honors to date. Heather and Donn got married on May 12th in front of about 25 people. It was not that they could not

Bringing a baby into the world is no small feat. You can quickly become overwhelmed with what your life now looks like, the changes you are going through physically and emotionally, and the advice from friends, family and even strangers. So instead I want to simply pray over this new family. Pray for this sweet little one who has made it earth side and this family that the Lord has blessed her with this side of glory. Father God, Thank you for sweet Evie! There is no greater gift, next to salvation, this side of heaven that is sweeter than the blessing of new life.. An image bearer of the almighty God sent in the smallest of packages, with perfect little fingers and toes, with sweet new bab

It is fun to watch a family grow. It is fun to see them transition from a couple without children to expecting their first child, then to see them bring that sweet baby into the world and discover what it looks like for them to be parents. Then to see them flourish as parents, and then continue to grow into parents of two beautiful children. I have had the honor and privilege of seeing this family grow, not only professionally from behind my lens but personally too! I have gotten to photograph so many milestones in their lives and the lives of their children. I have seen their house transform from an adult oasis to a house full of bows and toys. I have seem Liz and Ryan grow and mature and

Four years ago the mom of my friend Ashley asked me to take some senior pictures of her youngest daughter Manda. Let me backtrack just a little; this family has not been in my life long, but my husband loves this family something fierce. Jon grew up with Ashley and spent a good portion of his high school life at Ashley’s house. Jon lovingly refers to Ashley's mom as Mama Cash and I was almost as nervous to meet her as I was to meet Jon’s actual parents because I knew how much Jon loved her and her family. So when she asked me to take Manda’s senior pictures I knew I had made it. :) Since then I have taken her youngest son’s senior pictures as well, and photographed her daughter Kelsie’s wed

“ I was made and meant to look for you and wait for you and become yours forever.” - Robert Brown Heather and Donn waited for love and once they found it, it was more sweet and more lovely than they could have imagined. I met with Heather back in late summer of 2017, and I remember sitting with her and just being struck by how radiant she was when she would talk about Donn. She spoke of him with such respect and joy that I felt like I knew him, but it was not till this past weekend that I actually did. Seeing him and Heather together was something so sweet. Many of us find love young and with that comes a kind of forgetfulness as to what it is like to be in that season of waiting. Heather an
