"Do the mom pose!"

While my go-to posing style is candid, I always include a few "mom poses" in every gallery. So what's a mom pose? Stop, face the camera, and cheese big! These are the photos from your gallery that mom will want to hang on the fridge, the ones you'll send to grandma when she wants the new family photo. So if you ever hear me say "It's mom pose time!" you know what to do😉 Don't worry, I'll still tell you where to put your hands!

On Saturday, I had to make a last minute trip out to Irvine (to satisfy my Facebook marketplace addiction) and tried desperately to find a couple to come to the beach with me for a model call.

I was unable to find one in time.

Instead, I chose to wander Newport Beach by myself with just a DSLR and a vintage film camera I still don't know how to navigate.

If you've ever taken a camera on vacation and experienced the unfounded embarrassment of carrying around a "fancy camera" in a tourist destination, you might be able to sympathize with my situation. It's a whole lot less embarrassing when you have people to take pictures of.

I forced myself to embrace being the weird girl that stops to take a photo of every little thing.

And while the film scans won't be back for awhile, I can confidently say I haven't felt this at peace in a long time. I bring my fancy camera on every trip, vacation, and outing; but when your hobby becomes your job, you sometimes lose sight of what made you fall in love with it in the first place. When traveling with others, I often feel rushed or too embarrassed to stop and capture the image I can see so vividly in my head. When working with clients, I develop a workflow that I am comfortable and confident in. I very rarely just get to slow down and take in the environment, light, architecture, and love around me.

So if you ever find yourself the person on vacation too embarrassed to pull out your fancy camera—slow down, embrace the moment, and do it.

It just means you see beauty where others forget to look.

It was literally impossible to choose just 10 photos from C+J’s day to post. Such a beautiful day in Madison and the single most fun wedding party I’ve ever spent the day with. Thankful today and every day for all of my beautiful clients and the people who love them🥹

We're a little bit less than a year away from K+J's wedding!

With the weather cooling off a little down here in Georgia, I couldn't help but think about this chilly, but incredibly adorable session and how I absolutely LOVE fall wedding season. I am so, so excited to travel back to Indy next fall for this beautiful wedding! I'll be in desperate need of some pretty foliage by then... we don't get much where I'm moving 👀

The process of selecting photos to deliver to my beautiful clients is called "culling". When I come home from a wedding and have between 3,000-5,000 images, it's tricky to narrow that batch down to the very best. So how to I choose the ~15% that get delivered?

I look for images that are not only sharp, clean, and composed the way I had envisioned, but also those that tell a story, evoke emotion, and capture the true essence of your day.

I've been asked before why I don't deliver every single photo I take. Believe me, there can be too many photos to look through... an overwhelming amount makes it hard to narrow down your absolute favorites - the ones you want to print and share with your kids years down the road.

When you hire a photographer, look for someone whose portfolio reflects the emotions you want to feel when reliving your day for years to come. You're putting a trust in us that is incredibly precious. That trust is something that I, as a photographer, will never take for granted.
