As a wedding and portrait photographer, I spend a lot of time behind the lens capturing everyone’s special moments. But when it’s my turn to be in front of the camera or just feel my best on the job, I have a few go-to beauty products that I can’t live without. I know how important it is to make sure that your hair and makeup are on point all day long, especially on your wedding day!

Happy Saturday! The weekend is here and Spring is in full bloom! (My allergies are proof of that!) I’m living on Claritin over here right now. That and LOTS of coffee! And, Easter is just around the corner….literally, next weekend. And usually most moms out there want photos of their kids in their adorable Easter outfits. Or maybe, now that the weather is warming up, you’re thinking of being outside and that you might want or need some updated photos of the family…

I am SO behind on getting my fall sessions up on the blog, but better late than never right?

That being said, meet the Spikers!

Brandi, her husband Sean, and their two beautiful girls, are from North Dakota. They were on a road trip and had visited other states, but their main stop was Tuscaloosa, Alabama. They are HUGE Alabama fans…

On the last day of our Christmas trip to Nicaragua, I got to take photos of my brother and his beautiful family! This is probably one of my favorite family sessions ever, but I might be a little biased. We had a wonderful time…

This sweet family means so much to our family, and I am so glad that I was able to capture some precious moments and memories of them before they headed back to their home in Mozambique, Africa!
