The JOURNAL

2016 may have just been the fastest/craziest year of my life!! Not only did I have a baby, but I photographed so many amazing weddings & families, and brought a new dog into the mix!!  For those of you who are thinking about doing the puppy & baby thing… it’s cute when you think about […]

It’s hard to believe that this year is almost over and that this wedding was my last of 2016!! And y’all, what a way to end my year!!!  You may recognize these two from their engagement session back in November.  I headed back to Houston a few weeks ago to document these two on their […]

God has blessed me with some amazing friends in my life and I couldn’t be more thankful for them, and one of those friends is this woman right here.  I met Emily a little over 11 years ago and I had no idea that she’d be one of those friends that I would and could […]

When Marla contacted me I noticed that her fiance 😉 had the exact name of a young man that I grew up with (well I grew up with his sister but I have known him from a very young age) so in my response back I asked if Tyler had gone to Ledford and if […]

His birthday I think always seems to fall the week of Thanksgiving or pretty dang close to thanksgiving and I love it because it means our week is full of celebrating him and being reminded of what and who we are thankful for!!  Today I just have to say Happy Birthday to this guy!!!  This […]

When Brett contacted me about photographing his and Hannah’s wedding day I was sooo stinking excited.  I was excited for a few reasons…. Brett’s younger sister was my actual first paying customer 🙂 when I decided that I was going to do this photograph thing, I have photographed Brett twice in college… once when he […]

In the almost 8 years of photographing weddings I had yet to photograph a morning wedding.  That all changed on October 22nd!!  Brittany & Chad decided they wanted the afternoon to be able to spend as husband & wife and with their family before heading off on their honeymoon so that meant a morning wedding […]
