Hunter Is Graduating!

I just cannot believe my itty bitty 11 1/2 pound baby nephew is now 18 years old and will be graduating HIGH SCHOOL! Hunter will graduate from Heritage Christian Academy this spring. He is a gifted artist and an outstanding guitarist! I'm so so so proud of the man he has become. He is an amazing son, brother, grandson, cousin, and nephew!!


We met up last weekend to shoot his Senior Portraits. He withstood the very cold weather like a champ.

Enjoy my favorites from our session!

The Rapley Family!

This family was the perfect way to close out my Busy Season! It was the first time I was meeting the Rapleys, and they certainly did not disappoint! In the hour we spent together, I captured beautiful smiles, tons of laughter, lots of silliness, and above all else, their immense love as a family.

Please enjoy all the sweetness from our session!

November Deployment 2016

I had the honor of capturing soldiers and their families during their last hours together before shipping out. I've never witnessed anything like it before. There were laughs, tears, goodbye kisses, don't-wanna-let-you-go hugs, and long moments of silence. I was in awe of the strength shown by the dads, the moms, the brothers, the sisters, the wives, the sons, the daughters, the grandfathers, the grandmothers, the uncles, the aunts, and the friends that came out to support and send off the brave and courageous men they love.



Thank you will never be enough.

My hope is for you, the reader, that my images show the raw reality of this moment.
