Do you wanna build a snowman? ⛄️❄️🎃

With love from Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven! The perfect way to remember the year our girls danced around the living room singing “The snow glows white on the mount tonight,” any chance they got 🥹

Last year, they were so cold we had to put snow coats on them toward the end of trick-or-treating, so Becks was pumped about having a warm costume, but then this year, it was so warm he said he really felt like Olaf “in summer” 🫠

We never know which year will be the last one they’re excited about family costumes, so we’re just soaking in these memories while we can!

And they’re already brainstorming/taking suggestions for next year if you have ‘em 👀

Feeling nostalgic looking through our family costumes through the years 🥹 
Every year I try my best to soak it in, knowing *this* might be the last time.  
But I’m happy to report for 2026, the tradition will live on! 🙌🏼 
I really thought this’d probably be the first year we didn’t do family costumes. The kids are getting older and their own interests are getting stronger, and I was more than okay with that. 
The kids have always picked our theme 🎃 You could probably guess, but Becks chose from 2020-2022, Em picked 2023 and ‘24, and last year’s was Beckett’s idea again. 
So when he pitched his 2026 idea at dinner one night and the girls didn’t immediately look super thrilled, I told them they could always just each pick their own costume this year. 
Much to my delight, they looked at me like I was crazy 😂 
“Family costumes are WAY more fun, Mom!” 🥹 
Then came my favorite part: Once they decided we MUST be a group again, Emily got SO excited about Beckett’s original idea that she started rallying everyone around *his* plan… while Beckett fell in love with Emily’s idea and started arguing against his OWN pitch in favor of hers 🤣 
In the end, they ALL agreed Emily’s idea was their favorite 🤍 
Any guesses what they chose?! 👀 
The kids were looking through each of these with me tonight and we all had different favorites.   I’d love to know which year was your fave?!   Tell me below so I can report back to the crew which year is the winner :)

P.S. I made Lumiére’s flames out of construction paper and felt so proud 😂 The next year, I made my Glinda crown out of paper, but didn’t anticipate RAIN 🫠 We’ve been paperless since!

Feelin’ like kids again 🥹

So grateful for this just-the-two of us trip. Uninterrupted time with him is a lot more rare than it once was (homeschooling three kids while running a business is no joke!) so we have to be more intentional than ever to carve out the time for just the two of us, but whenever we do, it’s SO life-giving, and we always come home better spouses, parents and business owners. Plus, it’s just plain FUN 🥹

Our first time in Quebec City and we’ve officially dubbed it our “favorite city in North America.” It’s been on our bucket list for yearssss and we were so excited to finally make it happen. It was even better than we expected! The most charming European experience (without the jet lag!) and the most gorgeous fall colors all in one place. Cobblestone streets, delicious food and people who smile rather than scowl when we attempt a not-so-French sounding “Bonjour!”

Snuck away to our first Nordic spa, braved the freezing rain to see a waterfall and I (the anti-unique food girl) even tried escargot and swordfish (!!) WHO AM I?! Scrolling through my camera roll with so much gratitude!

Did they get ripped off? 🙃 
Thankful Todd and Kara never once questioned a single one of my crazy requests… even when I walked them straight into a parking lot! Sometimes the best light is hiding in the least likely spot! ✨ 
These two flew all the way from Arizona to Tennessee for their engagement photos, and it felt like such a gift to capture the joy of the story God is writing in their lives 🤍 
Todd has been a cherished friend for SO many years (to know him is to love him!) so our hearts were practically bursting when we got to go on our first double date with him and Kara before this session. We could just feel it. The ease between them. The way Todd looks at her like he still can’t quite believe his luck, and the way she looks back at him the exact same way.  
They light up around each other whether the cameras are up or down, which made our job really easy (or really hard, because we could NOT narrow down our favorites 😂) 
Their wedding is only a month away, and Jordan is so honored to stand beside Todd as one of his groomsmen 🥹 Capturing this season of their life was so special for us. Every frame felt like proof of what we already believe: the Lord really does restore, redeem, and write better stories than we could ever imagine. 
Comment “MORE” and I’ll send you the whole blog post! 💌  P.S. If you’d never think to shoot in a parking lot, I’ve got the perfect *free* 60 min photo class for you! We’ll show you how to see things differently and change the way your photos look forever with the camera you already have! Just comment “SECRETS” and I’ll send it your way!  P.S.S. Photogs, I’d love to know a crazy request YOU have made of a client during a session! What’s *your* version of “Can we stop right here in the parking lot?!” Tell me in the comments!!

Two desert kids discovering lighthouses, hydrangeas and sweater weather in August? We may never recover🦞  Jordan and I started dreaming up a “coastal New England summer” for our kids years ago, back when they were still tiny enough to nap in pack-n-plays. It’s been on our list ever since, and this trip somehow beat every version of it we’d imagined.  Even though we’ve lived in Tennessee for over five years now, we’re still those two people who grew up in the Arizona desert and are completely in AWE of all things east coast. We’ve never been to Maine before, and as you can see, we walked away with full hearts (and way too much matching merch 🫠)  This was probably one of our favorite trips to date. We shared a house with cherished friends, and honestly? The cute little towns and postcard lighthouses ended up being the bonus. The real magic happened right in the house: post-bedtime dinners on the porch, morning coffee while the kids ran wild playing Cops and Robbers, backyard soccer games, piles of watercolor art scattered across the table. 
Now if you know me, you know my food philosophy is “if it’s from the sea, it’s not for me.” But then we went on an actual lobster boat and watched a lobsterman pull them straight out of the ocean and hand them to our kids. One of our best friends cooked live lobster right in front of me in our Airbnb kitchen. I couldn’t NOT try it.  
And... I get the hype?? Tried the lobster, tried the fish, even worked up the nerve for a lobster roll. Better than I imagined and I had more than one bite (which is big for me). Still couldn’t bring myself to shuck an oyster… but Beckett did, so I guess the torch has officially passed 😂 
Someone please make me president of Maine’s fan club. Charming little towns, lighthouses straight off a postcard, hydrangeas still going strong, mornings cool enough that we got to wear sweaters.. in AUGUST(!!) What a dream. 
Tell me: are you a lobster roll lover, or more in the “if it’s from the sea, it’s not for me?” camp 👋🏻 Ever done summer in Maine? We’re already plotting a way to go back!

This is 39 🥹

I got to wake up this morning another year older, hearing the pitter-patter of little feet on our bedroom floor, feeling the warmth of three tiny bodies crawling on top of me in their cozy jammies, whispering “Happy birthday, Mommy” as they snuggle into my neck (and fight over “the good spot”) all before I’d even opened my eyes. I almost wish I could’ve stayed right there all day.

I used to think growing older was something we were supposed to dread. But now I think it’s actually the best gift we get.

My thirties have been the most transformative years of my life. The decade I got my favorite title: Mom. Every year has grown me in more ways than I could’ve imagined, and just when I think each stage can’t get any better, it does.

Older, wiser mothers I know well (and even sweet strangers in the grocery store) have lovingly reminded me this season with little kids goes impossibly fast. So I’m trying to memorize it. Our almost-four-year-old declaring that I’m “The Birthday Mommy” and our eight-year-old ordering me “don’t come out yet!” The giggles behind the door as party hats go on, the same well-loved, wrinkled, plastic confetti tablecloth they dug up from the basement getting spread across the kitchen table, Jordan cueing up the same Stevie Wonder song that’s been our go-to birthday anthem since before the kids were born. Their handmade “all by myself” gifts, wrapped in crinkled paper and just a little too much scotch tape.

How rich am I that I get handed a tiny box full of someone’s most-cherished treasures? Seashells. Stickers. A rainbow drawing… and a homemade card that *almost* spelled “birthday” right (who really needs that “i” anyway?)

It’s been the sweetest summer with them, fuller than any before it, more memories than I know what to do with, and so much I still want to share here.

But tonight, I just feel so thankful to be a year older, for another year with my four favorite humans, our community… for you.

If you’re reading this, whether you found us three days ago or you’ve been here since before these tiny humans even existed, thank you for being here. It means more than you know 🫶🏻

The only thing better than watching one of your babies walk down the aisle is… ALL THREE 🥹

Last night was the first time we’ve ever gotten to attend a wedding as a family of five (and Ellie’s big debut as a flower girl!) as we celebrated our next door neighbor (who feels more like family) marrying the love of her life!

We got to leave our cameras at home and it was such a gift to get to soak it all in and never once have worry about the light 👏🏻 (Although as you can see, the light was SO good! It’s hard to turn that part of our brains off 🤣)

I know this flower girl/ring bearer season is SO short and one day we’re going to blink and it’ll be one of our own kids walking down the aisle, so we were just living in the joy of every minute of yesterday.

Never want to forget their sweet smiles as they walked down the aisle or the way they just jumped right into the middle of the action on the dance floor (swipe to see what I mean 😂)

Such an honor to celebrate Kennedy and Isaiah! The joy of the Lord shines through you both and we love you two more than words!! 💛

How do I even narrow it down from this weekend?! 🤩 (Swipe to the end to see our fave item from her shot list!)

There’s no greater honor than being chosen by a photographer to photograph THEIR once-in-a-lifetime day, and we have been looking forward to Chelsea + Jerrard’s wedding for so long.

There was so much to love about their day, but what really stuck with us was how beautifully and intentionally God-honoring it was. From start to finish, they never missed an opportunity to point back to the Lord and remind every single person in that room that they weren’t just making a covenant with each other, but with their Creator.

What a gift to get to witness. And capture 🥹

These are just a few of our many faves, but we’re sharing SO much more on the blog! Including the sweetest “first touch” moment that had literally not one dry eye in the place (Jordan and I included 👀) Just comment “MORE” and I’ll send the link to all the sweetness straight to your DMs!

Chelsea and Jerrard, congratulations you two!! Loved getting to be there on your best day ever 🫶🏻

PS I’d love to know which shot is *your* fave! Let me know if you have one!

It seems like just yesterday we were hauling giant car seats through the airport on our backs, nursing babies who wouldn’t take a bottle in cramped backseats, and somehow trying to Tetris a pack-n-play, swim diapers, a monitor, and a bouncy seat into one bag 🫠 
And now here we are. It feels surreal (and honestly a little emotional) to be stepping into a whole new season 🥹 
Our youngest turns four in just a few months, which means we’re SO close to officially closing the chapter on eight and a half years of the “0-3” stage. And friends… traveling with them is *finally* starting to feel more fun than hard. 
I wanted to pull back the curtain on everything that made this trip feel so much smoother (the exact things we’d never travel without again.) Just comment “VACAY” and I’ll DM you the full list of clickable links!  To everyone still in the thick of the baby and toddler years: we see you. I remember toddler days feeling approximately 3,452 hours long 🙃 Everyone kept telling us “cherish it, it goes so fast!” (And they were right, it really does.) But it’s also okay to admit that sometimes just making it to bedtime is *hard.* The early years are no joke. 
So if you’re hauling the pack-n-play and counting down minutes to nap time right now, here’s your reminder: it gets easier. Genuinely, measurably easier! The work you’re doing in those little years matters more than you know. And one day, your kids will push their own bags through the airport, you’ll have a free hand for a hot coffee (that you actually get to finish ☕), and you might even sneak in a few pages of your book between building sandcastles 🤯 
They really do grow so fast. So grateful for the chance to make these memories with our favorite little humans 🤍  (Swipe to see our fave travel roundup or just comment “VACAY” to get all the links!) ☀️🌴

We looked at each other this week and just said… wow 🥹

Not because of the number of photographers who signed up for class… or how many people showed up live… but because of *who* was on the other side of the screen.

We kept thinking about the photographer:

- watching during nap time…

- surrounded by piles of laundry…

- or on their lunch break…

- exhausted by the daily grind

- or watching late at night after their kids went to bed

The one who loves photography… but sometimes just feel a little stuck and wanting something more. We remember that feeling so vividly, like it was yesterday.

And as we were downstairs teaching, sharing stories and walking through all of it… life was happening upstairs.

We could hear kids giggling, grandparents helping and little voices asking us to please stay 🥹 A life we once could only dream of.

For us, this week wasn’t just about hosting posing classes. Because on the other end were real people. Real families. Real dreams of building something more.

If that’s you… we want you to know you’re closer than you think. We once sat right where you are and can tell you it’s worth putting in the work for what you want, even if people around you don’t get it right now.

We’re so honored for the chance to come alongside you and can’t wait to discover what your own story will be 🫶🏻

P.S. We loved our time with y’all more than you know. You could even say we may “never let it go” 😉
