i LOVED the feel of this session. we had a very special location to use that was monica’s first house and we had a time crunch because on friday it will no longer be her house. we wanted to preserve it forever in pictures and fill the house with her gorgeous family’s laughter and love! rose fam – thank you so much for allowing me the chance to work with you over and over, my friends, i love you guys!.jpg)
closing day.
I love the families I work with. I am so grateful I get the chance to work with so many of them over and over and over. I get so attached! I have always felt like this family has so much sparkle to their personalities..such genuine smiles, hilarious humor and so much real love going on. We decided to take a walk in a typical Sunday morning for them to capture real memories. We went to their favorite park and walked by their brunch hang out, played and then finished with cake because someone was turning ONE shortly after! I had so much fun with you Bowyers…like always. Thank you so much!.jpg)
I’m the proudest Aunt – there aren’t enough words to describe from day one of Myra, her’s and Jeremy’s beautiful wedding, my first Great NEPHEW (cause we only had girls) and then Mr. Cole (Mom’s maiden name – thank you Myra & Jeremy). Words don’t come for this much love and pride! You’ve captured so many of their beautiful moments – thank you!

Laura + Art – The time I got to spend with yall was so special to me! I’d been dying to meet Beau since the second I found out about him and OMG I fell in love! I am so happy for you guys…SO happy. I can’t wait to watch Beau grow through the years and you better believe Aunt Kelly will want to see him ALOT. Thank you for allowing me to spend the day with yall! Love you!.jpg)

becca and jeff – how cute is elijah eating his cheerios?!
i am so happy all of you were game for my big balloons and trying a new location. you guys are the best. muah!
I don’t even know where to start. Seriously! Words just don’t seem good enough here. I was so incredibly nervous about this wedding because I wanted it to be perfect for them and it was taking place in broad daylight. If you know me, I shoot during the golden hour almost exclusively. Once I got there my stress instantly melted away and the whole world stopped during their wedding. It was the most magical, beautiful connection of hearts I have ever been a part of.
These are people that mean so much to me and have impacted my life forever. I have never met people quite like them…and they probably don’t even know how special or incredible they are because that is just how they are (Tara + JD, Sherrie + Adam). They love with all their heart and don’t let a day go by that is wasted or without purpose or love. They live their lives fully and for others letting their beautiful spirits SHINE. Their incredible outlook, perception, insight…it makes the most profound impact on everyone they come in contact with. Their personalities are infectious and their love is contagious! There is something about them that makes you just feel comfortable and draws you to them. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be there. I loved every single second of it. The world learns alot from you guys…that’s one thing that is certain. Thank you for that.
JD + Tara – Oh my gosh, the way you look at each other…the words you said…the way you hold each other. WOW! I am sure you noticed the crazy mess in the corner who was sweating AND crying all at the same time…yeah that was me 🙂 I am so happy for you that you were brought into each other’s lives. CONGRATULATIONS.
And Tara – the way your kids look at you is the most special thing ever…I hope you see it – they are all so incredibly in love with you! And the way that you make every single person feel like they are the only person on Earth makes me know that they see the way you look at them too 🙂
[BTW Tara – I saw your mom look at you the same way too. The emotion and truth and connectedness you all have is so beautiful].
