Recap of 2015

Every year I am in awe of all that I gain from each photo session. Whether it's a wedding, a newborn session, or a family session, there is ALWAYS something that I learn about life and myself. 2015 has been filled with so much joy and a few surprises. In June, we found out that we were expecting our second baby. We have been blessed with our daughter, Daniela, and now we are waiting to meet our son in just 2 short weeks. (Or sooner, if he decides to come earlier.) My fall season was cut short because of a neck injury and was unable to take on quite a few sessions, but I had to put my baby and pregnancy first and rest as much as possible. My dear clients were so understanding, and for that, I am forever grateful. I'm reminded how lucky I truly am to have such a gratifying job where I can work with such wonderful families. To those families, Thank You! I am so thankful for your support and love.

2016, we are ready for you! I am excited to work with more families and capture more memories.

Robby + Aneliese are Engaged!

Robby and Aneliese are one of the most beautiful couples I know...and not just on the outside kind of beautiful. The most important kind of beautiful...the one where you see the true love between the two, the pure joy they have for one another, and the way they make you smile just by being around them! I feel so lucky to be able to capture these special moments for this very special pair. 

2014 - An Unforgettable Year

2014 has been a year filled with so much adventure, excitement, and amazing clients who I am lucky enough to call them close, dear friends. I am so incredibly grateful each and every one of you. You have all impacted my life in so many ways - and for that I am forever thankful. 

Please enjoy this slideshow with just some of my favorite moments :)

"New Year's Day. A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Today carve out a quiet interlude for yourself in which to dream, pen in hand. Only dreams give birth to change"
 

Engaged | Nacho & Andrea

This weekend was filled with an EXTRA special photo-shoot....my amazing brother's engagement session. I cannot express how much I truly love my brother. He has always been there for me, cared for me, and was actually the one who brought me to the world of photography, my passion. I am so incredibly grateful to have him as my brother and his fiancé as my future sister-in-law. Andrea and Nacho's love story began with these adorable chipmunks, Simon and Jeanette, and have been around ever since. Andrea, thank you for making my brother smile everyday. 

Engaged | Robin & Luke

I met Robin a few years ago in a photography course back in Savannah College of Art & Design. I always admired her outstanding work and the passion she put into every project she presented. When she  reached out to me a couple of months ago to photograph her wedding, I was so honored and filled with gratitude. To be honest...I was also a bit nervous. Photographing a wedding is a big enough responsibility...but photographing a fellow PHOTOGRAPHER'S wedding, is even more pressure.

When Robin & Luke told me they wanted to go fly fishing during their engagement shoot, I got really excited! I love it when couples are passionate  about their hobbies and want to incorporate them in their photo shoots. This couple was  no joke, they are really good at fly fishing, and seemed to love being within nature. We met at the Sweetwater State Park (which is A-MAZING!) and we "hiked", for what felt like 10 miles. (I'm sure it was less than a mile...but this momma is out of shape after having her baby) Every corner of this gorgeous park was filled with so much inspiration... 

Perfect fall afternoon + stunning light, + a beautiful couple in love = a photographer's dream! 

Robin and Luke, thank you so much for allowing me to document these special moments. I'm counting down the months for your wedding! 

Jason & Brigitta are Engaged

When Jason and Brigitta enter a room together, they fill up the room with so much love and positive spirit. I absolutely loved getting to know them and their inspiring relationship. Thank you both for letting me capture these special moments. 

Michelle + AJ are Engaged

The rain waited patiently for me to capture the love between Michelle and AJ. Seconds after we finished, the rain poured down and cooled us off.  The three of us felt so much gratitude for the nice, cool rain after dripping in sweat. Michelle and AJ didn't even seemed bothered by the heat…they were truly focused on each other and their love for one another.  Michelle and AJ, thank you for sharing your morning with me!

Beautiful engagement session + ZOMBIES

I remember as a little girl at every Christmas and New Years Eve, Ana and I would practice endless hours to perform a little dance in front of our family. Although I was not the best, she never gave up on me. Ana is not only my big cousin, she was always like a sister to me. Now we are both adults, engaged, and ready to be each other's bridesmaid this Fall. Ana and Adam started dating about the same time I started dating Chester. Its been exciting seeing how our relationships blossomed at the same pace. Last fall, I got the chance to capture these moments of the love birds and …oh yeah…a Zombie?!? Check it out for your self…. This was a first for me :)
