**Announcement**

After years of capturing so many beautiful love stories and finding a true passion for wedding photography, I’ve come to realize where my heart lies most—being a mom. My boys are growing up fast, and their involvement in competitive sports has increased, leading me to shift my priorities.

While I absolutely love witnessing the journey from engagement to “I do,” my family comes first. I need my weekends to cheer on my boys at the baseball fields, on the wrestling mat, basketball court, or football field. As a result, I will no longer be taking on weddings full-time. I will, however, still accept a few weddings a year if they don’t conflict with baseball, football, wrestling, or basketball seasons. (not a huge amount of time, I know)

But don’t worry! If you already have a wedding contract with me, I will absolutely still be capturing your big day, and I cannot wait to celebrate with you!

With that said, I’m excited to announce that I’ll be restructuring my business to focus on what matters most right now—Families, Newborns, and Seniors. If you’re looking to capture special moments, feel free to reach out for a session! 📸

Thank you all for your understanding and continued support! Enjoy some of my favorite moments from weddings over the past year.

All the big details mixed with the small details make a large impact on your wedding day. And I always love seeing the unique items the bride chooses to use on her wedding day.
