A few weeks ago, I had the honor of documenting senior portraits for my niece Brielle and her bestie, Macy. To say I had fun with these two would be the understatement of the year! From Macy assigning us each ‘hangry names’ to showing me how to apply highlighter to exploring the beaches of Seaside, […]

Two years ago, when I married my Allan, I was lucky enough to inherit this gorgeous brunette as my niece! She is one of his 15 nieces and nephews, and this year, she is heading into her SENIOR year at Sunnyside High School. I can hardly believe it!!! When she asked me to document her […]

When I watch the news these days, I’m disheartened. There is so much negativity and violence, my heart can hardly bear it morning after morning. So I’ve mostly stopped watching the news entirely. Not because I want to live in the dark, but because I want to see the good in this world.     […]

He probably doesn’t even remember me babysitting him because it was so long ago, but I do!!! Yeah, Jayson and I go way back. Like eighteen years back!!! How crazy is that?!?

Kickin’ off Memorial weekend here with an All-American senior session!!! Oh, this one was a fun one friends and I’m so excited to share a few of my favorites from my session with Austin today!!! From the American flag waving proudly in the wind to incorporating his love for football to shooting out in the […]

There must be something in the name. It is no wonder the talented duo, the famous Haynes sisters, from the movie White Christmas (my favorite Christmas movie EVER!) share the same last name as them!!    A few years back, I documented senior portraits for Austin Haynes, so I was SO very honored and excited […]

Can you feel it?!? The energy bubbling all around and the excitement in the air with graduation just around the corner!!! I have been LOVING the past few months with all the senior sessions and am SO blown away with all the AMAZING graduates this year!     A few weeks ago, I met up […]

I was eight years old and my dad decided to sell his work truck. It was a 1978 green, hand-me-down Ford pick-up and I was devastated by the news it was to be sold. So much so, I sat and cried inside the pick-up before it left. Yep. I guess you can say I’m sentimentally […]
