H and T’s wedding at Kings Chapel in Nashville, Tennessee, was nothing short of magical! With stunning weather that completely defied the forecast of rain, their day was filled with love, laughter, and some truly heartwarming moments.

Their love story started on the softball field, where they met while playing in a coed league.

This past August, surrounded by the stunning beauty of the Santa Fe National Forest, K and K renewed their vows in a ceremony filled with love and joy.

I first met Allie in college when we were both part of a magazine, staffed entirely by women. It’s been a joy to see her journey unfold since then! Allie and Alex’s love story began freshman year at the University of Tennessee. With mutual friends and Alex’s dorm room right above hers, their paths were destined to cross. Now, eight years later, their love has blossomed into a beautiful partnership, complete with their adorable dog, Fritter. Just the weekend before our session, Alex and Allie got engaged, making our session even more special!

The day was filled with unique touches and personal moments that reflected their love and personality.

I had the pleasure of reconnecting with AJ and M, an incredible couple I had the joy of working with a few years ago down in the Florida Panhandle.

Springtime along 30-A in Florida is always magical, and it was the perfect setting for Kisaac and Kaetlyn’s engagement photos back in March. We met up for their session at a small town along 30-A and finished up at Grayton Beach State Park just as the sun was setting, giving us the best golden hour vibes!

There’s something magical about returning to a place that holds so many memories, and for T, Albuquerque is just that. I had the pleasure of capturing their maternity session in the stunning Sandia Mountains, where the warm summer breeze and breathtaking vistas made for an unforgettable backdrop!
