I started photographing this sweet peach around last Christmas & I am so glad I have had the privilege to photograph her several more times since then! Evelyn is full of personality and her sessions are filled with laughter at all of her facial expressions.

Happy Birthday Millie
I first photographed her and her family this past summer when I ran a random spur of the moment sunflower mini session, and I’ve had the pleasure of photographing them two times since. I don’t always do these posts, but I thought I needed to blog & her session was on the top of my list to blog so why not throw in a Happy Birthday post why don’t we?!
Rachel + Keelan – Austin, TX Maternity Photographer
Let me introduce you to this power couple. Rachel & Keelan are the epitome of a power couple. Rachel teaches Soul Cycle in Austin (and did until the very END of her pregnancy, I mean SERIOUSLY? I could hardly do Yoga with my very very low baby belly) and Keelan is a super talented Musician. Originally, Maternity photos seemed pretty cheesy to them both, but after thinking on it, they decided “well, why not?” So they booked me. When Rachel messaged me after receiving their images and said they were so glad that they decided to book them, it reiterated just why I do this gig. Anyways, look at how freakin’ adorable these two are. Stick around, I’ll peep their adorable baby in the next post!
Speakeasy Party – Austin, Tx Event Photographer
Hello Hello! Many of you don’t know that I photograph events and random gigs frequently. It’s not something I necessarily advertise. I usually pick up events by mutual friends, or past clients. Anyways, I got hired to photograph this awesome Holiday “Speakeasy” themed party and it was to die for. The details, the venue, the “special guests” – Well, you’ll just have to see for yourself.
2020 is here!
Happy 2020!
Holy macro, It’s a new decade. To think of where I was on this journey a complete decade ago is unreal. I was just a young marine wife who had a long passion for photography and art, who wanted to create. What it has evolved to is absolutely mind blowing. I have a long way to go, but man the burning passion still resides deep within and a much better understanding at how to run a business. So that’s why in 2020 and this new decade I want to take a huge leap of faith and dive into Weddings, Traveling more for photography & just continuing my education and honing in on my skill. This year and the years to come will hopefully result in a life-long dream of growing my success, jumping and hurdling over mountains, sustainability & just meeting YOU! I am so pumped to take this journey by the horns and hopefully inspire others to do the same. I will share more tips and tricks on how to get the most out of your sessions, I’ll share wardrobe that inspires me, places that inspire me, and of course, the beautiful people and photographs I get the honor to take along the way. I hope you’re ready!
Smith+Family | Austin, Texas Family Photographer
I met Ashley ironically enough in Middle school in good old Southeast Georgia. It’s funny how life works though. I haven’t seen Ashey since I was in high school over 13 years ago. I got married, moved away & she got married and moved away and somehow, someway she wound up in Texas a hour or so away from me. Her and her family traveled to Austin, Texas to have me photograph them and I am SO glad they did. Enjoy this cute fam. and these adorably cute children!
Goetz+Family – Austin, Texas | Family Photographer
I first met the Goetz family while working my long lost hospital job. We were talking pictures and they needed a newborn photographer and alas, I was gifted to them. He he, just kidding. Anyways, it’s already been a year since I photographed their sweet Carter as a newborn, and here we are doing their family photos. They are the sweetest family ever & Carter was all serious faces, which apparently is totally his character.
To all you mom’s
Mothers. Son of a mother. You are so incredible. You are so powerful. YOU ARE SO NEEDED. I don’t think one day is enough to show moms how much they mean to you. Honestly, I don’t even think if you showed her, for the rest of your days how worthy she is, it would ever be enough.
I have been so incredibly blessed to know some of the most amazing mothers. To have captured their journeys leading up to becoming a mother & even though there are some really hard stories I’ve been around to photograph, the love I’ve witnessed has been enough to push me through them. The idea that I get to deliver these images, they can cherish for the rest of their lives. I seriously get chills.
This post is to all you mothers, while I am not going to share ALL of them, I am going to highlight a few of the most recent moms I’ve had the absolute pleasure to photograph. I hope you know how special you are today, mamas.
Olivia + Rocco | Austin, Texas Family Photographer
Hey hey hey!
I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Olivia, who is a fellow “solo-mom” boss babe. Olivia Is a successful real estate agent in the greater South Austin & Dripping Springs area. Seriously, if you need a realtor in those areas, she is literally a dream boat to work with. Any who, she reached out to me to photograph her and her most prized tiny-human & I obliged. Enjoy these insanely gorgeous duo.
Kneeland + Family – Austin, Texas | Family Photographer
I know the title says “Austin, Texas” because thats where I currently live & I still have a fan base in North Carolina, so I don’t want anyone thinking I permanently live there. In January I traveled to Georgia and added a VERY quick trip to Jacksonville, North Carolina to visit this amazing family. While there, I photographed them of course. The last time I photographed Crystal & her family, it was only a family of three about a year or more prior to conceiving Noah. These four are just a pure joy to be around. Â I’m so thankful for the friendship we have and am so thankful that despite being a photographer herself, she held out for me to photograph them<3
