Happy Hump Day! Anyone who knows me knows I love a good thrift store find.  Goodwill is my jam.  We have one about 4 minutes from our house here in St. Louis and it is the bomb.  Like, sometimes Target donates brand new items to […]

Meet Katie! We got connected through a women’s cohort group in the fall that has been the biggest blessing.  She’s a mama to 3 beautiful kiddos, a seminarian wife, and now an amazing macaron baker.  Honest confession:  I never liked macarons before trying hers.  I […]

It’s been on my list to make a Chicago trip happen while we live in the midwest and so this spring break we seized the opportunity. We stayed in a little Air B&B in Chinatown for a night and Uber-ed around the city for two […]

They’re back!  If you didn’t catch it, last week I shared the first half of my sister and her man’s engagement session (complete with a red dress, perfect light, and ice cream!) and today I’m sharing part 2!  In my opinion, every engagement session should […]

Meet Abby and Josh! (AKA my sister and future brother-in-law!) They came to town this past week and we spent 3 days touring the city, getting in all the good food and ice cream, and having some solid heart-to-hearts.  They came to campus with us […]

Meet Bethany and Keisuke! The first time I met these two was when they rang my doorbell and asked to take my chair.  Let me back up a little… I’m an avid Goodwill hunter and a month ago I scored BIG.  I came across a […]

It’s my business birthday week! February 19, 2011 a few days after I sent my first client their photos I decided to make it official. By official I mean I made a Facebook page.  🙂  I was junior in high school, shooting with a Canon […]

Oh, internet.  Let me just say that what you’re about to see is evidence that my husband (then fiance) loves me very very much. What is a pre-wedding shoot, you ask?  Well, let me tell you… It’s a day-long photoshoot in elaborate outfits at elaborate […]

I have the sweetest, most thoughtful husband. Let me give you an example. He surprised me a few weeks ago with a mid-week retreat before our semester started.  As we roadtripped out, I knew we were going to Tennesse and we wouldn’t have wifi so […]
