{Nathan + Brooklynn Lovelace}

What a sweet time together with this couple as they started their lives together in holy matrimony January 3rd. I have known Brooklynn for over 10 years and have enjoyed watching her grow and mature into the beautiful young lady that she is. I'm thrilled she has found the love of her life and that Nathan has found Brooklynn. They are a match made in heaven.
Here is a glimpse of their wedding day.

A few days before Christmas, I was able to sneak one more quick family session in for a sweet family that were together for the holiday's. Unfortunately, the day we shot, it was cold, windy and the kiddos had just been pretty sick the day before. Not ideal conditions for this sweet family, but we made the most of it, and seeing the love this sweet family shares was so sweet and refreshing. I was so glad to take these pictures for them!
Here are their pictures.

In general, I don't do wedding pictures. I feel very ill equipped for such a big event, however, I have done a few through the years. And typically when asked if I'll do them my response is 'No, you can find someone WAY better than me!', but every once in a while, when a dear friend and/or bride that I know and love dearly asks, I may still respond with that answer, but if asked again, I'll give in and say yes. This is one of those times.
I have loved this bride (and her family) for over a decade now, and I was beyond honored when she asked me to take her pictures for her big day. I have loved seeing her grow into the wonderful young adult she is today, and I'm so excited to see where this next chapter takes her and Nathan.
Here is a preview of their big day.

So excited to post Emily's Senior Pictures! This girl is one of the best in Speech and Debate, winning SO Many awards. Truly using her God given talent for good. This girl is going places and I'm excited to sit back and watch! She's beautiful inside and out and I'm pleased to share her pictures with you guys!

Just in time for Thanksgiving, I was wanting to get this sweet family's pictures done. I am truly thankful for their friendship through the years and have enjoyed watching their family grow each year!
Here are their pictures, enjoy!

Tonight was my last photo shoot of 2025! And let me tell you, I ended on a high note! I have enjoyed watching Emily grow up over the past several years and she has such a bright future! What an honor to take her pictures. Here is a sneak peek of her pictures!

Josiah's Senior Pictures
This was such a beautiful night for pictures a couple of weeks ago. Josiah is a wonderful young man and it was fun taking his pictures. Enjoy his gallery.

Last night was a beautiful (almost too warm) of a fall evening. It was perfect for pictures with these dear friends of mine. I have loved capturing their family for several years now. Here is a sneak peek of their session.

Always a joy to take this sweet little family's photos. Their kiddos braved the cold for these pictures and knocked it out of the park, if you ask me. Here is their gallery!

Wrapping up another Johnson/Lawrence photo gallery! Over a decade of taking this sweet family's pictures and I love it every time! Here is a look at their gallery!

{Logan & Lillian} Senior Pictures
I finished up Logan and Lillian's senior pictures today. These shoots were fun for me, as I have gotten to be a part of their lives for the past 10 years. Its fun to think about what the future holds for both of them! Praying this senior year is a wonderful year for them both.

*Side note-These pictures mainly focused on Logan, as Lillian has gotten pictures done already, but it was fun to get both of them in the mix. Also, Logan is a wonderful employee for O'Riley, taking his job seriously, as well as his future with the company.

What a gorgeous fall day to take some senior pictures! Josiah's pictures got cancelled last week, due to a rainy day, and I don't know that we could have ordered up a more perfect day to take his pictures. Josiah is a wonderful young man and I'm excited for what his future holds!
Enjoy his preview!
