Brinkley’s senior session started at Roswell Mill last month and then ended on Panama City Beach one week later. In the middle of our time on the beach, we pulled her parents in and made family photographs. These sweet people haven’t had family portraits made in years. And years. They were overdue. And over the…
Read MoreLove is a hard thing to describe sometimes. How it makes you feel. How it changes you. How it ignites a fire inside your soul that no one else has ever come close to sparking. How it doesn’t necessarily make any sense. But ever since I met David + Amanda, the love that they share…

Read MoreI had the pleasure of getting Ella to myself for the first portion of this session. I love getting one-on-one time with high school seniors and having the time to just talk about anything and everything. She is a thoughtful soul who is going to do great things with her life. I just know it.…
