This special session has a tight grip on my heart. I have so much love for these two, and the fact I was chosen to be there blows me away.

As a kid, my family didn’t make a big deal out of Halloween in my house. Halloween is my dad’s birthday and we lived in the country from age 8 on, so trick or treating wasn’t something we really did. But, as a mom- I LIVE for this stuff. I am truly meant to be […]

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 […]

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! It means I have previously made a connection and gave a wonderful experience. I was informed that these two would be […]

Are you guys ready for this? I mean, seriously. These two have the TIGHTEST grip on my heart and I am SO beyond honored with the friendship I share with them. This post is so portrait heavy because I COULD NOT CHOOSE my favorites. I met Trista in February of 2020. She answered my plea […]

You guys may remember my lifestyle session with the Rovner Family in May. This time, Sarah wanted a family session! My schedule was so busy, but of course I had to see this sweet family again. I absolutely adore this family. They are so funny and generous, and go with the flow. We met at […]

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 […]

Kevin went back to Germany in April, and the girls and I stayed in Illinois. We counted down the days until we would be back together! 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 […]
I am so happy to meet you! I am so glad that you discovered my little corner of the internet. I am so lucky to get to work with wedding clients and vacationers across the United States & Europe to curate and document their very own, special love story.
I am an enneagram type two- the helper. I have never related to something so much in my life. I strive to allow for the best client experience and I am always ready to help no matter what. Sometimes that looks like steaming a bridesmaid dress, finding extra earring backs, fluffing your veil, or even bobby-pinning a rogue hair back in place. Don't worry guys, I got your backs too. I know it is important to find the ice to keep the drinks cold on the wedding day, attach a boutonniere, and even help the best man with his last minute speech. (Hey, I was a communications major in college- I know how to pull off a last minute spew of words!) I am always here to make things go seamlessly.
