Photographing: Families, Faith, Food & Fun!

INK (2.0)

11.11.25

I had to title this post INK (2.0) because this children’s museum just got even BETTER! During my last visit, the girls had an EXCELLENT time exploring all of the shops and playing. But now, INK (Interactive Neighborhood for Kids) has upped their game!

The facility is so fresh, open, clean and vibrant! Around every corner is a new and exciting place for children to turn ON their IMAGINATION! (I even put my camera away for a while where I could join IN on the fun too!)

I love how the community stepped in to be part of this children’s village. It was so fun seeing some of our FAVORITE spots around town inside INK!

Riley

11.10.25

If she looks familiar, it’s not because we just did some really fun photos in the desert a year ago. It’s because I’ve been fortunate to taken her photos since she was born! (That’s what happens since her mom and I have been friends since KINDERGARTEN!)

Riley and her family were SO sweet to not only come from Arizona to Rayna’s wedding, but extend the party another week at our house afterwards. (They also took on the title as ‘official clean-up crew’ once all the guests left the church. What a HUGE help that was!)

Riley is a SENIOR and I’m so proud of her! I can’t wait to see what the Lord does in her life.

Rayna’s Senior Photos

10.19.25

What a complete JOY it has been raising this level-headed, easy-going and sensible girl. She’s never been the type to act on emotion, try to get her own way or not be happy with the little things.

There’s not many draw-backs to her being so low-maintenance, but as I’ve tried to plan her senior photos the last two years, it’s been nothing short of impossible.

I figured my last resort was her senior trip- our big, Mediterranean cruise! I casually asked her, “Hey… you know how Ross wanted me to take his senior photos on our cruise a few years ago? Wouldn’t it be fun to take yours on our cruise too?”

No special outfits… no drama… just a few pictures here and there, right?!?! She ~~surprisingly~~ agreed, so I had a SPECTACULAR time ‘quickly’ ‘snapping a few’ ‘quick photos’ at our stops in Italy, Greece and Croatia.

Trip of a lifetime…
Memories that will last forever…
An amazing daughter and friend…
More than I ever deserved…

FOREVER grateful for these memories!

Tinsley

I met Tinsley fifteen years ago! I mean… what a CUTIE pie! And it feels like yesterday I was at her house taking photos of her backyard tea party. What a treat! There were so many other special sessions and memories, but now, we’re here to celebrate Tinsley’s SENIOR YEAR!

Kate

10.09.25

When I first began to photograph Kate thirteen years ago, her mom was intentional about bringing special items to our session. How FUN to look back and remember those seasons! Lots of great seasons- stuffed bunny, baseball, flowers and a SWEET dog named Bentley! Now we get to celebrate her SENIOR YEAR!

What a fun journey! Thank you for trusting me to be there for the highlights!
