this year taught me how to stay open without losing myself.
to take care of my energy.
to make honest and intentional artwork.
2025 asked for presence, clarity, and trust—in myself and in the process. the work became less about pushing and more about showing up grounded and open to the moment.
i’m deeply grateful for the clients, planners, and fellow creatives who trusted me with meaningful moments and met me with such care. i`m moving forward with clearer boundaries, steadier footing, and a quiet optimism for what’s ahead.
to my 2026 couples—welcome. i’m so excited for the stories still to come. 🤍
and yes, i’m still accepting a limited number of new clients this year.
here’s to warmth, connection, and continuing to create images that feel like home. 🤍
So honored to capture the whimsical, love-filled wedding of Megan and Ally at Camp Ocean Pines! 💕 The perfect blend of joy, adventure, and romance surrounded by nature`s beauty. #LGBTQWedding #WeddingPhotography #AdventureWedding #LoveIsLove.
