I met MaryKate while she was a bridesmaid and loved her friendliness and bubbly attitude immediately!  When she got in touch and set up a grad shoot with two of her fellow Speech department students, I was thrilled!  We started at the Christian Student Center where MK is a big part of that program, then […]

Addison’s mom contacted me before booking her destination senior session and made the comment “She just wants something different than what everyone else does”.  She came to the right place!  Being from the Atlanta area, Addison wanted a location and experience that would be out of the norm.  And that’s exactly what she got.  She […]

Welcoming couples, friend groups and individuals to this year’s Homecoming Mini Sessions!    These small sessions pack a big punch!  They’re the perfect way to celebrate this moment–and an easy add on to your homecoming experience!  Come to your quick session, then meet up with friends for dinner before heading to the dance!  These sessions […]

The Teen Model Team girls and I met up for our first group session this past February at a peach orchard!  Peach orchard sessions are a little bit tricky because the key is to get the session scheduled when the blossoms are out, but before the leaves come in and take over!  We found a […]

The fall mini sessions from October of 2020 were something special indeed!  Beautiful families, couples and friend groups made their way out to The Crow Farm for their small sessions.  These sessions are compact in time, but powerful in the amount of images we glean from our time together!  Give me twenty minutes and a […]

Sometimes senior guys can be a little more difficult to work with than with girls.  With senior girls you can have them twirl and tuck their hair behind their ears and swing their dress, etc… with senior guys, there’s only so many “poses” that can be done unless the guy is like uber-confident.  Lucky for […]

Keelee’s senior session took place in the spring, before graduation.  She chose Park Place by Mclane as her location, and we added on a couple of other fun areas to increase the variety within her gallery!  Park Place is such a stately historic home with beautiful white columns and brick steps… so perfect for portrait […]

When planning a wedding, there seem to be a lot of “norms” or “rules” that need to be adhered to… but if I’m honest, the couples who are the truest to who they are as a couple (throwing some of these ‘rules’ out the window) are the ones who have the most enjoyable time.  Alex […]

Jacie and Trevor were married in a small private ceremony a while ago… just their parents and other tight family members were in attendance.  Trevor is in the Navy and they wanted to be officially married while he was on land.  However, their Dream Wedding happened this past fall with the sweetest day!  Jacie and […]

Back in the fall I had this idea of bringing the SMT concept to the teen realm in a more petite version.  The shoots would stay in town (SMT Group shoots are destination sessions outside the Valdosta area) and we would focus on bringing up the confidence level of the girls on the team.  We […]
