As if wedding planning wasn’t stressful enough already, let’s throw in a global pandemic, wildfires, and multiple hurricanes. Y’all! Sometimes, it feels like we are living through an apocalyptic movie.
Because I always want to educate and connect my brides to great resources, let me introduce you to the company, “Basic Invite.” They have so much to offer if you are a DIY’er and trying to reschedule or postpone your wedding date quickly and efficiently. Their Save the Dates and Wedding Postponement Cards are lifesavers right now.
Read moreWhy Intentional Planning is the Key to a Stress Free Wedding Day
Have you ever went grocery shopping without a list? Ummm... I have. When I got to the checkout, I was shocked by how much I spent. Because I didn't prepare, I did what "felt" right, and in the end, sticker shock taught me a powerful lesson that applies to wedding days too. I needed a list.
Your wedding day can’t happen stress free without intentional planning.
Read moreLacey and Dustin's Engagement Session in Gautier and Ocean Springs, Mississippi
Lacey and Dustin are one of those precious dream couples that photographers pray for. They are just as sweet and as in love as they look. We have been walking carefully through all of this COVID-19 madness together for the past couple of months, and it has only made me all the more thankful to work with ideal clients again and again. While other photographer friends were dealing with couples who were freaking out and canceling- not just postponing or rearranging, I had the great blessing of having hard conversations with my beautiful brides and game planning alongside of them. I am so, so grateful for their trust, empathy, and perseverance in difficult circumstances.
Read moreFarm Wisdom from Poop
So, if you are just now following my blog, you may not know this, but I live on a farm here in Gautier, Mississippi. I’m a huge animal lover, so naturally, we have quite a few animals too. I truly love the life that I get to live. I am super blessed. I dreamed to be able to do this years ago and had no idea that God would actually bring those dreams to life. I had just hoped He would.
Sometimes, living your dream is way different than actually thinking about your dream.
Read morePhotos on a Dented Fridge
If you come into my farm house, you’ll see a great room with a living room to one side and a long kitchen table on the other. You would naturally walk in and sit at the table as I poured you a steaming mug of coffee. You’d look over at a dented refrigerator and wonder why it doesn’t have handles (there is a story that will have to be told later). You’d see these photos taped across one side.

When I launched my photography business in addition to web and graphic design at the beginning of this year, I had no idea how well it would take off. Originally, I intended to only offer photography on my farm, but as the need to travel with it has come up again and again, I am launching my new website to show the new direction my business is taking.
Read moreWhat You Don't Know About Me
Did you know I almost didn’t launch my photography business this year? I felt this prompting in my spirit that I needed to move forward, but I hesitated. I love doing photography, but my life was already so full. I was afraid. I knew I could take beautiful photos. I was doing that of my family and friends already. The thing that made me unsure was showing people my mess. People would know I didn’t have it altogether all of the time.
Read moreWhy My Blog Was Silent for a Year
This is my kiddos and me in 2017 right before we started our crazy house project. We had moved to my parents’ camp temporarily to regroup financially and to reset. Little did I know the crazy journey ahead. Less than a week later, I had a hysterectomy. I began the process of grieving for what I had lost in hope that something better was ahead.
Have you ever felt like your life was just one big, disorganized mess? That no matter how hard you tried or how genuine your intentions were that you couldn’t get it completely right. You were trying. You really were. Things were just falling apart faster than you could fix them. Treading water day after day kept you alive but was not your idea of thriving.
