I graduated college in May 2019 and transitioned into full time photography after juggling full time photography and full time school for four years. Although I’ve worked full time from my home for almost an entire year, I am no expert. I need to re-learn these tips & tricks just like everyone else. Over the […]

Up until the end of high school I lived in nike shorts and t-shirts. All throughout this time my mom always wanted me to dress like Emma! Fast forward to our early 20’s and now Emma has launched an online boutique of the cutest and more affordable clothes! Now I can dress like Emma (you’re […]

Being a full time student and a full time small business owner doesn’t warrant much down time. If I were being honest, 2015 was the last time I can remember taking a break! I’m a firm believer that there are different seasons of life meant to be dedicated to certain things. I couldn’t be more […]

Holly Grace on the Peak of Mt. Scott. I had the honor of taking this incredible photographer’s head shots! We ended the evening by climbing to the peak of the mountain that we were on and Holly Grace jumped to the top rock for the incredible scenery!  2.  The Future Mr. and Mrs. Thomas on […]

In my 20 years of life, each year has increasingly gotten better. 2017 has been the sweetest year of life so far and these memories mean so much to me! I got to welcome into the world a precious God-Sister, grew my business even more, studied more than I ever had in my life, welcomed […]
