  • It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. 🎄 I had so much fun with this Christmas session!
  • Crisp, cool mornings and our orange tree laden with fruit. So much to be thankful for. #30photosofthanks #somethinginnature
  • There’s nothing curated or posed about this photo and if I’m being honest the perfectionist in me wishes I had cleared the random dishes and half eaten apple (🙄) off the table. But then I would have missed the moment. So I’m reminding myself that a perfectly staged photo isn’t the point and that beauty is found in the everyday moments and messes of life. Thankful for a photo with all of #mypeople in the frame as I take photos and cultivate a heart of thankfulness this month. #30photosofthanks
  • The last few months I’ve taken a hiatus from this space, and while it didn’t start out as intentional, it’s been a much needed time off as I’ve focused on other things that God saw fit to put on my plate. I’ve been busy at home with kids starting off the new school year, I went back to teaching part time (with only a weeks notice before the start of school!😳), we had a week long hospital stint with my youngest, celebrated 4 birthdays in our immediate family, I’ve photographed hundreds of sweet kiddos for school portraits this fall, and have fall photo sessions in full swing. 😅 It’s been a little bit of a whirlwind few months! 
But, I’m happy to be back and present in this space again with all of you, and I’m especially excited to be kicking it off with one of my favorite traditions- our #30photosofthanks challenge! This has become one of my favorite ways to share in the joys of taking beautiful photos with all of YOU! I love the chance to create something beautiful that reminds me of all I have to be thankful for and I love getting to see so many of you do the same. So whether this is your first challenge you’ve done with us or one of many I’m so glad you are here! Screenshot the prompt list and be sure to check out the link in profile for more details!

  • “Rise up and attack the day with enthusiasm.”

Here’s to another Monday, and another week filled with lots of goals! Anyone else love a good checklist to start the weeks off and get stuff done! I kinda feel like I’ve accomplished more if I can check it off a list!
  • Pre photography business and pre kids I was a high school English teacher! I taught 5 years and taught just about every grade 9th thru 12th during that time, but my fav grade to teach? Sophomores! 10th grade American Lit was always my fav. While there are times when I miss teaching, I am so thankful for photography and the time it has opened up for me to spend with my family! ❤️ Anyone else have a past career that might surprise people??
  • We’re in full on summer mode over here at my house so my #fridayfreebies are late going up in stories- but they’re finally up! For all of my #doterra bosses I share free stock photos in my stories every Friday. 💚 And if you’re looking for a few more you can check out my profile for more free oil photos. Here’s to the weekend! 🙌🏻

  • Know your Why. If you’ve been in business for any amount of time at all you’ve probably heard this one before- the importance of knowing your why, knowing what your motivation is and what drives you to do everything you do in your business. When you have a clear idea of your why, then saying yes to some things and no to other things that don’t support your “why” becomes easier. . . 
So I’m challenging you, and myself too, to take a few minutes today to think through your why and put it down in writing. Even if you’ve done this before taking the time to clearly write out your why can be refreshing for your business! Share with us when you’ve done this!
