While rolling through town…

After spending 3 months in south Texas to be near Jason’s parents for a season, I promised Taryn’s bestie we would hit our storage unit in Austin before leaving Texas to grab something for her. While rolling through town I took a few sessions and I am SO happy that I did! It’s been awhile since I have photographed this crew and they have added their sweet, spunky, girl to the family! This mom is usually behind the camera so we did extra with her and the kids, I love it when moms hire me and are intentional about getting in the photos! Nichole is an incredible animator, check her out! My kids love her coloring books!

Kenny, Sarah, Evan & Levi

My sweet friend Sarah is an amazing photographer herself so I was super honored when she reached out about hiring me to do a session at their beach house in Port Aransas, Texas. We had so much fun shooting at the house then taking the golf cart down to the beach! I loved meeting the boys, I feel like I have watched them grow up online. You can actually rent this property in Cinnamon Shores (you should, it is stunning). Check it out here and here. Thanks for trusting me with capturing your memories Sarah and Kenny!

Our Marriage Testimony

Why are we going to Washington? We are headed there to serve the church God used to save “us”. Let me explain…

This is actually the short version of our marriage testimony…

One year ago Jason and I sat on a park bench in Texas, trying to decide if we could stay married. It wasn’t a fight. It was two sad, frustrated people facing what felt like failure. We’ve been through a lot of trauma together, the highest of highs, the lowest of lows. We’ve had many happy days in our marriage, we do love each other. And there has also always been a disconnect and imbalance between us. I wanted….more. For the longest time, I couldn’t put a […]

Antique Bible Family Heirloom

Jason’s Mom has this incredible Bible that she inherited and it’s been in their home on display for many years. Jude spotted it when we were there and started researching the history of this particular Bible. He managed to trace it all the way back to 1856 when it was printed, fascinating! Jude asked his grandmother if she’d be willing to pass it on to him for his future Pastoral library and she agreed. I can’t wait to see it in his office someday. I think we often take our bibles for granted, how accessible and portable they are to us. I’m so thankful to live during a time I can read mine whenever I want!

Taco Party!

I cannot believe it’s taken us over 2 decades of parenting and parties to have a taco party! WE LOVE TACOS! Jude is 17 and Zachary is 8 – their birthdays are two days a part and the day in between was Tuesday this year – the perfect party day – Taco Tuesday!!

So very Austin

When one of my favorite families asks for a session filled with Austin gems, I jump in! They’ve wanted to do this for quite awhile and I’m so happy we made it happen!! We jumped from spot to spot and had a blast!
