I met Craig and Courtney in August and when they told me they were getting married in January, I jokingly commented that it will probably be the one weekend in all of winter that we get a snow storm.
Winter Engagement | Oklahoma City Engagement Photographer
Did you recently get engaged over Christmas and the holidays? Congratulations! Now is the most exciting time, finally getting to plan the day you've always dreamed about. I've been seeing a lot of inquiries lately, and I'm getting super pumped to work with some of the sweetest couples in 2017.
Is There Hope in the Midst of Great Grief?
I wanted a way to acknowledge the painful things we face today, in surrendering the things we have no control over. For me, it was a baby long awaited for and taken far too soon. For others it's having a job that you love and are passionate about. For many others it's a spouse, or owning a home, or having a relationship with a dad you never knew. A mom who left you, or a spouse taken too soon.
My Year in Review | Favorite Photos of 2016
Thank you, a million times thank you, to each person I worked with this past year. I prayed for every single one of you before every single session. I asked God to allow me bless you and to create a space for joy and fun memories in your life. For your photos to be what your heart desired. I know I didn't get it perfect every time. No one can. But I hope that your memories are cherished, and I hope that you felt loved and cared for.
Celebrating 5 years of Marriage | Breckenridge Colorado
I spent a long time envisioning a session like this, and it was truly a dream come true. Ricky and Elizabeth hosted my husband and I when we took a short vacation to Colorado in August. They housed us, drove us everywhere, and took us on the absolute BEST adventures. Gifting them with photos to celebrate their 5th anniversary was the least I could do to thank them for such an amazing time.
Families at Home | Uptown OKC Newborn Photos
Do you remember the first few weeks with your newborn? Yeah, me neither. Which is why I LOVE THESE PHOTOS. Oh they tell such a raw and honest story. One that is silly and crazy, but ultimately full of intense love for this new tiny human. Photographing families at home never, ever gets old.
Classic Oklahoma Wedding With A Rustic Touch
On July 16, Kelsie & Trent were married in Elk City, Oklahoma inside a gorgeous old church. The creaky floors and stained glass windows told a story of a church that has withstood time - what a perfect backdrop for two lives becoming one.
Saying Adieu to Birth Photography
In September 2014, after many months of discovering beautiful birth photography work, I decided it was something I could really love and get into. But now I'm saying adieu, and I'm sharing my journey and reasons why.
Wildflowers and Summer Storms | Oklahoma City Bridals
I looked at the weather forecast and became a little nervous. We were already pushing a pretty tight deadline to get Kelsie's bridals done, ahem, before the day of her wedding. I was zooming in to the exact photo location and meteorologist me was trying to track projectories! I texted Kelsie and said we're doing this - it's gonna happen!
Old Trinity of Paseo | An Intimate Wedding
On June 11th, I arrived at the Skirvin Hotel in Downtown and went up the elevator to the 6th floor. It's always these moments right before I knock on a bride's door that I have to take a few deep breaths, shake out the nerves, and pray that God would be with us. Year number 3 in business and the nerves will still hit, without fail.
Oklahoma City Newborn Lifestyle Photos
I've talked a lot in the past about how newborn photos are highly unpredictable. Things often don't go according to our own plans. That's never been more true than with this family.
