I am so excited about his wedding! I met Lauren several years back when I photographed her sister's wedding, and I've been praying she'd ask me to do the same for her one day. I'm so pumped about their big day. Check out some of my favorites from their adorable engagement session!
Read moreFinley's magical journey into the world
The day has finally come for this blog post. This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever done. Amber and I have been best friends since high school. We even managed to be college roommates and still remain BFs. We've been by each other's side through all the boy/job/life troubles and also through all the boy/job/life celebrations.
When Amber told me that her and John were trying to get pregnant, I told her I was there for her whenever/however she wanted. My heart practically burst when she told me she wanted me to be there from the very first moment of telling John, to the day Finley was born... And all the amazing moments in between.
I couldn't be more proud to show off to the world... Finley Claire, my perfect Goddaughter. I pray you enjoy Finley's journey into her mommy and daddy's arms as much as I enjoyed being on the frontline to capture this incredible moment on one of the strongest and most miraculous days of my best friend's life.

Read moreA 17Berkshire-Inspired Styled Bridal Shower Brunch
So in case you weren't aware, Nuha with 17Berkshire is quickly becoming one of my favorite people in the world. What I love about her treats is the fact that you get designer treats that taste homemade. I didn't even like macarons (which is the correct spelling for the dainty little treats she makes - I looked it up) until I had one of her macarons. I had the amazing opportunity to work with her again this past weekend for a 17Berkshire-Inspired Styled Bridal Shower Brunch (yes, I know that's a mouthful). Nuha made Strawberry Cheesecake Chocolate Pyramids, a Caramel Drip Cake, Meringue Kisses, Croquembouche (the cream puff tower), Eclairs, and Raspberry Macarons. My favorite part was eating it all after though. :D Check it out below! Also... Please take note that I have a new number one rule for my life - Gold leaf must be sprinkled on everything.. Always. Please and thank you.
Read moreGrayton Beach Senior Pictures - Caleb
My hubby's aunt asked me to come take pictures of Caleb while we were at the beach. I was more than happy to accommodate this request. You see... Caleb has NO clue that he could model professionally if he wanted. But the fact that he is unaware that he could model makes him even more adorable. I love this kiddo; and I can't believe how quickly he's growing up.
Check out some of my favorites from our session!
Read moreMemphis Country Club Wedding - Mr. & Mrs. Black
FINALLY - I can share this amazing wedding at the Memphis Country Club.
When I showed up to Michael and Laura's rehearsal dinner (I've posted a few of the images below the video), I KNEW the wedding was bound to be spectacular.
Their wedding was almost as amazing as they are. After a night of tears, laughs, and wine at Itta Bena... (Where I learned a lot of interesting facts about the bride and the groom thanks to the groomsmen speeches), I showed up to the Memphis Country Club and was instantly overwhelmed by the explosions of flowers, the champagne ice sculpture, the stunning ballroom. The vendors involved really knew what they were doing.
Mr. and Mrs. Black have an amazing group of people that surround them. They made the day so incredibly fun, and I couldn't have been more honored to have been on the frontline capturing this special time in their life.

Read moreA Love Story at Bellevue Baptist Church
I met Andrew and Yumi earlier this year. Their story is so sweet. She is from Japan, and he is a world traveler. They met at Union University in Jackson, TN. I attend the Germantown campus for my masters program. So we had an instant connection. As a photographer, a couple like these two are a dream. She is such a gorgeous girl... One of the most gorgeous girls I've ever photographed. I'm so inspired by Asian culture, so a Japanese bride had me absolutely beside myself. Then you add Andrew... or should I say... Chris Pine. These two are bound to have beautiful babies. Andrew's dad officiated the ceremony. It was such an emotional ceremony. Andrew's face when he saw his bride walking down the aisle to him was priceless. Then, at the reception, Yumi (who is an incredible pianist) did a piano duet with her mom and then did a duet with Andrew. Andrew played the guitar in their duet. The song they played was Taylor Swift's Love Story, hence my song choice for their video below.
