This day was full of so many lovely, beautiful moments! I just wanted to take a minute to show a few off 🙂

My favorite doors in town and some amazing people too. I absolutely love all weddings. It is a complete honor to be a part of SUCH a significant life moment. Beautiful wedding venues are definitely not required for a wedding celebration but they are definitely the icing on the cake!

Spunky girlies, Mexican pastries and so many big smiles (with and without all their teeth). Photographing people that I love is so much fun. Especially when I have been their photographer for years and have witnessed their family grow!

It’s been a second since I bragged on this girl. She’s grown up so much in the past year. She’s a killer softball player (see for yourself), the funkiest dresser, obsessed with making random dioramas and homemade potions. She became a little sister this summer and has done so with practically 100% grace. Her heart is huge and her jokes are legit. I’ll stop there for now. I thank my lucky stars everyday for all the amazing people I am surrounded by. Especially this one.

You may already know that in home sessions are my jam. They are relaxed, authentic and easy going – authentic is my favorite of these three. Well, kitchen sink sessions are the cherry on top of a in home session. Happy babies contained in bubbles in a familiar space interreacting with their favorite people…how can you beat that?

I photographed the lovely wedding day of Ryan and Erin, who even on her wedding day was teacher first and bride second (reference photo one to see the pencil shoes in the old school house where they were married). I wanted to take a second to thank all of the amazing dedicated teachers out there that have made the start back to school something that feels safe and exciting. I would never want or expect this but I am getting messages from our teachers at 9pm and it is so telling of how much they work. I have so much gratitude for you!

Senior portraits are always a good reminder for me that I am, in fact, kind of old. That said, it is such a treat to meet younger humans who are just so full of talent, heart and intelligence. I find myself feeling inspired and intimidated at the same time and I am okay with that!

I may have met the sweetest, happiest, most camera savvy baby in the Birmingham area/greater south. Don’t even get me started on her puppy. What a beautiful family! In home sessions are my favorite. It’s such a sweet and intimate experience. Additionally, baby yawns are my favotie.

If your puppy’s face isn’t on the swizzle sticks, is it even a real wedding?  It was such a joy to be a part of this intimate, sweet Birmingham wedding.
