When you narrowly avoid a fender bender on the first day of school– and then realize the other driver also happens to be a mom in your kid’s preschool class🤣🤣🤣 Yes, that’s how I met this lovely client😍And what started as casual conversation picking up our kids turned into playground play dates and then a beautiful friendship bloomed.. and she subsequently hired me to take her family photos😂 I love the various ways I meet my clients.. and how our lives becomes interconnected and their babies give me hugs and ham it up during our sessions😅Thank you, Meg!

When my client reached out to me to book a session and mentioned that she’s not only an active duty soldier, but also recently deployed a YEAR overseas, I KNEW her family would share the most special connection.
You see, an absence of that length is difficult beyond measure, but the silver lining is that, more than anything, it teaches you to savor every moment and truly appreciate the love you have at home.
As expected, Rebekah & her family were full of joy, kindness and gentleness. They twirled in the sand, danced in each other’s arms and even took a moment to pray as the beaming sun dipped below the horizon.
Just before we said our goodbyes & hugged farewell, three-year-old Charlotte recited the ENTIRE Pledge of Allegiance! As you can imagine, her parents were bursting with pride for her patriotism. After all, her mommy has sacrificed so much for our country– and to see her daughter already respecting that left me speechless.
So many beautiful memories made on the beach that evening. Thank you, Schwarzenberger family!!🐚 🌊🌤💕 (07.30.19) -

It’s hard to believe, but in a few short weeks my oldest child will be turning FOUR YEARS OLD!😭 KJ is my sweet little shadow—full of energy and enthusiasm—and absolutely loves being the center of attention😅Because his younger brother is always following him around, it’s rare that we get to spend one-on-one time together. So one evening I brought him alone with me to scout a new location and we had a BLAST—just the two of us! He led our way through the field, sprinting through the sunshine, spinning in circles and— without being prompted—he picked me the biggest bouquet of wildflowers! He kept stopping to have me smell them and was so proud of what he plucked from the ground😌 Spending time with him that night reminded me of how quickly he’s growing😩— and how blessed I am to be his mommy♥️ We didn’t do anything fancy and we didn’t spend a dime, but y’all, that time together was precious. Make sure you’re allotting one-on-one time with each of your babies. You won’t regret it💛 (07.11.19)
