I’m 100% obsessed with this gorgeous girl and her magenta hair!!!! I told Jasmyn that I hope she doesn’t find it to weird if I pop up online with the same hair style as her. Only problem now is that all hair salons are closed for additional health & safety precautions. Should I kick it back to my high school years with box hair dye? Desperate times. hahaha. For real though, I really do feel so sad that so many businesses are getting hit hard by this virus outbreak. My stylists make my senior sessions soo incredibly stunning with their professional hair & makeup skills. I encourage you to definitely continue to support your local stylist and book an appointment for later in the year, buy a gift card or send them some love in a creative way.

Speaking of amazing hair & makeup styling, this look was made possible by the very talented Hali Gurley. She always does such an amazing job and my seniors always radiate confidence when they leave her chair. Jasmyn for sure radiated beauty and confidence on this gorgeous spring day. I’m so glad she found me on Instagram and that I was able to capture these memories for her. Her senior year ended too soon, but she still remains positive. And ohhhhh soooo positively gorgeous!!!!

Love is like wild flowers. It adapts and blooms through it all. I love how fields of flowers remind us to hold on and grow wherever we’ve been planted. These days I’m inspired by love stories that prevail through unknown outcomes. I guess I find myself being extra sentimental lately while realizing all the luxuries of life I took for granted. Getting to gather is such a privilege. I miss crowds of people at church and the energy of mass worship. I miss wedding days with too many people squeezed into small rooms excited for the occasion. I miss seeing everyone in Target while we are all really just there for things we don’t need. However, I remind myself that this is just a season. It will pass and until then I am enjoying large amounts of time with my family. And I am blessed to be able to still do what I love for my couples and seniors while maintaining a safe distance.

I just had such a connection with this sweet couple shown here. Taylor & Joe were such good sports during some chilly weather last week. This photo looks like it a nice warm spring day but Taylor in the cute little dress can assure that it was not! hahahaha. They were both just a lot of fun and I can’t wait for their wedding this fall.

Oh just a sweet engaged couple on a gorgeous spring day enjoying life during a pandemic. It’s so amazing that through all of this craziness love remains. A few weddings have been postponed until later in the year while a few others are still holding onto the hope this will pass quicker than expected. I’m holding onto that hope too! While praying and believing for a positive outcome sooner rather than later, I am still being hyper vigilant. I take all sanitary precautions and I’m grateful that I’m able to follow the CDC guidelines of 10 or less during engagement sessions. I usually hug my couples after a session, but not this season. It’s a very unfamiliar wave from afar.

I wish I could give Robin & Joseph the biggest hugs right now, because they were such a joy to photograph. Robin has such a positive upbeat personality and Joseph is the strong & silent type. hahahah 😂 I’m so excited for their wedding day.
