It’s over. I’m done.

Done with letting other people and social media and “girl boss” culture tell me how to run my life and my business.

I’m done letting myself be controlled by my own expectations of perfection and how I might be perceived by others.

I’m done letting technology run my life while I miss what’s right in front of me.

2026 will look different for the Rae & Co brand.

While I won’t be disappearing from social media completely, I will be appearing a little less.

My brand is all about genuine connection, which for me means making the slow transition to a mostly analog life. More physical books, more CDs and vinyl, more printed photos and more time in nature.

My focus in my business will be heavier in the tangible things, like more in-person coffee consults (if that’s your thing), making sure you actually get printed photos and have something to hold in your hands. More experiences and less photo ops.

So while you might not see as much of all these wonderful things on my socials, maybe we’ll just have to make plans for coffee dates, nature walks or game nights and truly connect 😉

I’m also excited to announce that I’ll be back and forth between Fort Worth and Austin over the next two years until I make my physical transition to Austin in 2028!

Huge thanks to for my new brand photos which feel fresh, powerful and ME!

Get you a girl who can do both Hallmark movie and romance parody vibes (scroll to the end 😆)

Tyler proposed at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens and Shelley said YES! When I asked if they were most serious or silly with each other, they said pretty much an even mix of both. They had me cackling at their antics and the way they laugh with each other like no one is watching.

It’s engagement session- have you booked your proposal photographer? Fort Worth is looking lovely this time of year and spots are filling up fast! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

You don’t have to get married in a church or a venue.

The fact that so many people don’t know this, means I’m not doing my job well enough and I am so sorry for that.

An adventure elopement is the perfect way to commit your lives to each other. No drama, no rushing, no pressure to perform.

Simply *being* together.

If the idea of planning a wedding makes you want to die inside, consider an adventure elopement instead.

And if you think you have to travel thousands of miles away to elope in a beautiful location, you’re missing out on so much of the natural beauty that Texas has to offer.

Words simply can’t do justice for Sarah and Kody’s adventure elopement. So I’ll just let the photos do the talking.
