HOW DID I NOT BLOG THIS SESSION FOUR MONTHS AGO?! This darling family of mine is a repeat client. “But Brenda, you don’t even live in Charleston anymore?” I KNOW- but I sure wish I did! Kara was a client of mine while we were stationed in Colorado. She was a referral from another family […]

Well, you’ve seen my triplet sister and her cute family. Now meet my oldest sister, Bridgette and her darling family! Bridgette and Mike met in high school back in 2006, they were married four years later in 2010. Landon arrived late 2013, and Killian a few years later in 2016. Landon and Killian were the […]

This is the third time I was able to work with the Calvert family. The very first time I worked with them, they were a family of three, with number four on the way. Andrea reached out to schedule a maternity session. She was pregnant with Miss Penelope (Poppy) and Olivia (Ivy) was just a […]

One day Kevin came home from work and said “hey I have someone who may be reaching out to you for photos. His wife is pregnant.” “Okay….so am I doing maternity? Newborn, what?” “I don’t know babe, I just gave him your website and he said he would have his wife reach out.” Ah, men. […]

Meet Bethany & Joe! These two were referred to me from a previous client (who was recently featured on this blog)! Whenever a previous client refers someone to me, I do a happy dance!

I met Mercedes and Ryland two years ago at a group of my fall minis! They were eloping and wanted to do a “first look” during their mini session to get some classic wedding photos. We had a lot of fun laughing and talking. They are such a sweet couple I was thrilled when Mercedes […]

Military separations are hard and often it is missing the important days, birthdays, holidays, anniversaries. Kevin and I made a plan to reunite two different times during our five […]

This is my third time working with them and they are always such a joy to photograph. The first time I worked with the Kondrath family, Owen was about 6 months old and he JUST […]
