Sheridan is really a kindred spirit to me. I've never had a bride so organized and efficient and I absolutely love it! She's one of those brides that I jive so well with. But while we get stuff done, we also have ton of fun during her sessions. I shot her engagement session with now-husband Jerry back in April and then I shot her bridals a couple of weeks ago. Her hilarious, wonderful mother was there during bridals, of course, and she made the experience even better.
Read MoreI knew I liked Sheridan and Jerry from day one. We met back in the fall when they booked me for their July 2017 wedding. The moment that Sheridan pulled out her wedding planning notebook was the moment that I knew I had found an ideal client and kindred spirit. She was so organized and on the ball! Being super Type A myself, it's fun to work with people that think like I do.
Read MoreI'm so glad that Ashley, John, and I were finally able to meet up and do their engagement session! I say "finally" because all of us kept switching the date back and forth. We couldn't seem to find a date that stuck due to weather, work schedules, my shooting schedule, etc. But finally! We made it work and it was so worth it.
Read MoreElise's senior photo session in downtown Amarillo has officially convinced me that winter is just as beautiful as all of the other seasons. I love the crisp cleanness of wintertime, the muted colors, and the softness. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Elise is a beautiful girl with the brightest blue eyes. She's a senior at Claude High School and she clearly has a heart of gold. She's headed to Midwestern State University after she graduates and though she doesn't know what she will study yet, I'm sure she'll be very successful.
Read MoreAiden's senior photos are sure to be some of the most unique that I've done so far. He and family have spent the past two years remodeling their 108 year old home in Amarillo. This house is a gem that they have clearly put a lot of care and love into over the past couple of years. He and his mom Stacey invited me into their foyer and I was astounded. It was like stepping into the past and it was amazing to witness.
Read MoreCrysta is one of the sweetest brides that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is soft spoken and lovely. Her lace wedding dress was classically elegant and perfect for her. We started her bridal portraits at the Amarillo Country Club, then we went to the Wolflin neighborhood. Finally, we found a gorgeous grassy country road to catch the last few rays of sunlight in the golden hour.
Read MoreI just love the way that Lauren's bright red hair pops against the deep autumn colors of the Wolflin neighborhood in Amarillo, Texas. She is a vibrant and beautiful bride! As I've said, the hardest thing about bridal sessions is holding off on posting images until after the wedding and with Lauren, I had to wait over a month! It was hard but now that she's married and her husband has seen her in her gorgeous wedding dress, I can show her bridal shoot off to the world.
Read MoreHow pretty is this girl?! On top of that, she's just as sweet as she is pretty. I only got to spend a short half hour with Micah, but I was so happy that she chose me to shoot her med school application head shots. It was one of those sessions that left me wishing for more time.
Read MoreThere's a first time for everything, right? Well Jillian + Lila was my first dog birthday photography session! Jillian (human) contacted me a few weeks ago about celebrating Lila's (dog) 1st birthday with a photo session and obviously I jumped at the opportunity. I understand what it's like to have a special relationship with your pup so to do a session honoring that relationship is so important to me. There really is no love like the kind between a dog and her owner.
Read More8 years. That's how long Becca Joy + Jacob have been together. And the sweetest part? They said "I do" on their eighth anniversary. Everything about this couple is amazing and I honestly can't say enough good things about them. They are gracious, they love Jesus, and they clearly love each other. It's easy to see why they have a ton of friends.
