WELCOME to the JOURNAL

AHHH!!  This contest was so fun to do!!  This last week has been so awesome, watching some of my past clients come back and share their sessions with their friends.  You all have some of the sweetest friends and family out there, because some of those comments that came in were just so full of […]

It’s only the second day of the month, but I am 100% sure that the next 30 days are going to FLY by!  Not only do I have weddings and family sessions on the calendar that I’m already thrilled about, but one of my closest friends is getting married this month, and we have a […]
