Why You Should Always Dress Up

Posted on October 30, 2020 |

Why You Should Always Dress Up

The Why I decided to do an updated post about choosing what to wear for a session, because it continues to be a popular topic among clients, friends, and family when preparing for their photo session! Over the last 6 years, I have gathered that it truly helps people to plan for their session when […]

Working on my 2023 Bridal Guide today and as much as I love color, black and white images get me every single time!!

I usually spend January and February working on behind the scene business organization and goals.. and this year is no different!! I’m so excited to get to work predominantly back on the east coast and I can’t wait to see what God’s plan for my photography business is in 2023! Thank you all so much for your constant support and love for my passion turned business in this little corner of the social media world. I appreciate you all so much, am always missing my past clients from all over the WORLD(!) and wish everyone a beautiful and successful 2023! ✨

Over here celebrating the 5th day of Christmas wit

Over here celebrating the 5th day of Christmas with pancakes and cleaning for special company to join us for the weekend!!! We had our first snowy Christmas, complete with a few frozen pipes (that unfroze Christmas morning!) + insane cold temps below zero 😅 and a beautiful Christmas Eve mass at our new parish. It ended up being a peaceful day where I got to sit down and read the @theember.co winter issue (finally!) with a homemade latte, while the kids played in their PJS.. a Christmas miracle!! ❄️

Christmas needs a spot on my feed, regardless of t

Christmas needs a spot on my feed, regardless of the busy. This Advent felt especially hectic and not very peaceful at all… mainly because of our big move + amount of adjustments and general lack of time to do very much at all. I literally had a paper list of all these things I wanted to do for Advent, especially prayer time alone….

Ask me how the plans are going 😅…

Based on the excitement in my house and daily countdown though, I’d say that somehow we succeeded in having our kids feel prepared. Although the cookies are basically gone, and I almost lost my mind decorating them WITH the kids… I decided to pull out my camera at home for the first time in a while and just go with it last week.
….I’m so happy I did that. The happiness on Evie’s face brings me joy to look at now. Slowing down to actually take the picture was also a lesson that I should just be doing that more often anyways. ❤️🎄

WE MADE IT to our new home in… eastern Ohio! The

WE MADE IT to our new home in… eastern Ohio! The last two months have been an absolute whirlwind and finding time to post any updates on social media was non-existent. But it was an extremely eventful, exhausting and hard working October & November for our family! We are still working out some details, but we are looking forward to spending Christmas in our new state and getting back to business in terms of.. basically everything 😅 we are so thankful for the help and prayers along the way!!
Ps. See picture #3 for the latest family update

📷: Huge shout-out to @lauraandmatthewphoto for being an awesome friend (as always) and dropping everything to take a few pictures so I didn’t have to use my tripod this year 😂🤍

✨✨✨WE’RE MOVING!!✨✨✨
And we literally couldn’t be more excited to be in the same time zone as our family, and so close to them again! Never did I think when we were in Pittsburgh in May to photograph a wedding, that we’d be calling that region home just a few months later!! But God is good and I think this is going to be so good for our family! We’ll be house/land hunting for a little while upon arriving, but I will be opening my business back up once we’re there this fall!!! 🍂

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Malone!! This wedding on Saturday was insanely beautiful. Alex and Mariah chose to have a Latin mass said for their wedding mass, featuring two unique traditions: the Lazo tradition and The Cross of Christ tradition, from the country of Herzegovina. I’ll be detailing these more in my blog because it’s truly something worth reading and understanding because it’s true and beautiful!! But for now, here’s a sneak peak at their beautiful day!

I haven’t posted nor put my face on here for almost all summer because, in truth, I needed an social media break!! Back this week because it’s wedding season for me here for the next month, and I’m pumped to be back to doing what I love with the best clients around ⛪️✨ I have quite the announcement coming up regarding the future of my photography business, but I’m waiting to share it until some things are finalized and settled! Thank you to everyone who has supported me both on this platform and in real life, by supporting my business!!!! Love you all! 🤍🤍

Europe will always have a spot on my IG grid. I can’t believe we were here years ago already 🥺 where does the time go!? I was just talking about this beautiful place yesterday with a friend.. and then I spent the past two hours looking at old photos from our years overseas. Sometimes it feels like it never happened, and other times it feels like yesterday. I’ll always consider it one of God’s greatest blessings, along with the little people he blessed us with while we were there (see belly in pic number 2 for proof) 🤍
