The JOURNAL

I absolutely LOVE this family!!  A few years ago I met them for the first time during a family session… it was SOOO HOT that morning, but we managed to get some great photos of all 4 of them… fast forward and I have photographed them a handful of times since that really hot morning.  […]

It’s hard to believe that I met this young lady when she was going into 8th grade… can’t believe she’ll be graduating high school in the spring, time sure does fly.  Over the years I have watched her grow into an amazing young lady!!  Kristin, don’t ever forget how amazing and special you are.  You […]

I love love love photographing people over and over again.  I first had the privilege of photographing Catherine when she jumped in a few photos at her sisters senior session a few years ago, and then again just randomly when she was a freshman in high school.  Catherine is now a junior in high school […]

Back in August 2005 God brought Emily into my life!!!  Earlier that spring I had helped found a Christian sorority on UNCW’s campus and that fall we welcomed our first set of girls.  Emily got lucky 😉 enough to have me as her “big sister”… Over the next two years I developed an amazing friendship […]

When we first moved to Texas and I started working at the church I work at…  I had someone tell me that I should meet this girl named “Lindsay”… they said we could probably be friends.  Well, I never seemed to run into Lindsay until one evening a group of ladies that had all sort […]

When you ask me to photograph your family/senior/wedding, etc…  you don’t just become a client to me… you become a friend.  I want you to feel like you can call me if you need anything!!  You’ll recognize two of these girls from this session because last year I took their senior photos…. and since then […]

I LOVE meeting new people… these four were no exception to that.  Diane contacted me seeing if I had a certain date available… I was a little concerned because yes I had the date available but I knew I would have just shot a wedding 2 days prior and my doctor hadn’t really cleared me […]
