Jess: Class of 2018!

When I moved to St. Louis in October, I only knew medical students, which really isn’t a great setup for either a social or professional life. Thankfully, I connected with Jess and her parents through a family member, and we set up my first official senior portrait session in Forest Park! As I told Jess,ContinueContinue reading “Jess: Class of 2018!”

Girl with a Guitar

Somehow, I ended up the only non-musically-talented sibling in my family, but thankfully, my sisters are especially good at allowing me to photograph them in their element. Even better, sometimes their element looks like strumming a guitar at dusk and walking down a country road, singing to cattle as the sun fades. I love shootingContinueContinue reading “Girl with a Guitar”

Lacey & Alex: Engaged!

My best friend is marrying the love of her life three months from TODAY! I’m so glad I got to hang out with Lacey and Alex for a few pictures before I move to St. Louis, and I’m so glad they found this great spot! Almost all of these pictures were taken in the sameContinueContinue reading “Lacey & Alex: Engaged!”

Densmore Family

The Densmore family was the first family I photographed in the fall, and I got to hang out with them again in May! We spent a morning at the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science, which I was thrilled to do because who doesn’t love a good butterfly house? I love taking family picturesContinueContinue reading “Densmore Family”

Alex: Class of 2017

Alex spent four years pouring his life and time into two things: football and academics. He is a student-athlete, a future doctor, and an incredible, brilliant young man. I’m so glad he agreed to wake up for a very early morning photoshoot with me to celebrate our graduation from Duke in May.

Dredla family

As a Duke grad, I cringed when I got the text requesting to do a family shoot on UNC’s campus. I also cringed when I realized that Chapel Hill actually is beautiful, and I had a wonderful evening getting to know the Dredla family! My favorite moment of the shoot was when a bride andContinueContinue reading “Dredla family”

Jordan: Class of 2017

Graduation is a major life milestone, and major life milestones deserve pictures. My good friend Jordan graduated from Duke with a degree in linguistics, so he’d be much better at writing something eloquent to put here. I never would’ve gotten through my four years at Duke without friends like Jordan, and I’m so excited toContinueContinue reading “Jordan: Class of 2017”

Bailey Family

Getting to E. Carroll Joyner Park was a bit of a drive, but it was SO worth it to get to hang out with the Bailey family! The forecast said it might rain, but when we actually started to take pictures, it was 85, sunny, and humid. They were champs about the unexpected heat andContinueContinue reading “Bailey Family”
