How Fast It Goes Every August, right around now, I hear some version of the same thing from moms: “How did that happen so fast?” or “The summer just flew by!“ The summer that stretched out endlessly in June is somehow down to its last week. There’s a new grade, a new teacher, a new […]

There is a certain magic that shows up the moment a child sees Santa. The wide eyes, the shy little wave, the whispered Christmas wish they have been holding onto for weeks. My Santa mini sessions in Tuscaloosa are built to hold onto exactly those moments, the real and unscripted ones, so you can treasure […]

Summer slows down for no one. We tell ourselves it will. We picture these long, lazy days stretching out in front of us, slow mornings and nothing on the calendar and plenty of time to just be together. And then somehow it’s the middle of July, the kids have grown an inch, and we’re not […]

Father’s Day has a quieter feel to it than Mother’s Day, doesn’t it? Every year the Father’s Day cards get funnier, the gifts lean towards grill tools and golf balls, and every year I think the day slips by without us saying the thing that matters most… So this year, I want to stop and […]

Happy Mother’s Day… Not the greeting card version of it. Not the perfectly plated brunch or the flowers that are lovely but gone by Wednesday. I mean the real, in-the-trenches, still-in-your-pajamas-at-noon, someone-just-spilled-juice-on-the-couch version of it. That Mother’s Day. For that mom. Because that’s most of us, isn’t it? I want to talk to you today […]

If portrait session pricing has ever given you pause, you’re not the first. Before you assume it’s out of reach, it helps to understand what actually goes into professional photography – and what you’re really walking away with. Here’s an honest, behind-the-scenes look at how I think about pricing and what it means for your family.

This past Saturday, I had the privilege of photographing Michaela and Nick’s wedding on Michaela’s parents’ beautiful property in Lineville, Alabama. It was one of those days that truly embodies the essence of a fall wedding—crisp air, the warm colors of autumn, and a deep sense of love and community surrounding the couple. Despite the aftermath of the Hurricane Helen that impacted neighboring states, the weather in Lineville gave us a perfect fall day.

When I first met Jorga (prounounced “Georgia”, like the state), her lighthearted laugh and contagious energy immediately filled the room. We first met at Starbucks when she reached out to me about photographing her elopement in July. I could see she was excited and her eyes sparkled with anticipation. I was thrilled for her and so happy for her, and of course, honored that she chose me to document such a joyous season of life.

Intimate. Classic. Elegant. These three words perfectly describe the Kristen and Austin’s beautiful wedding in the heart of Tuscaloosa, Alabama at the historical Jemison-Van de Graaff Mansion. As a photographer, I have the privilege of capturing countless love stories, but Kristen and Austin’s wedding is one that will stay with me forever. A Love Story […]

Dearest readers,
It is with the utmost delight that I recount the recent nuptials of Miss Megan and Mr. John, held in the idyllic setting of Lake Lure, North Carolina. This occasion, much anticipated by society, did not fail to live up to its lofty expectations. Indeed, it was a day replete with beauty, emotion, and no small amount of elegance.
