Real People

Compete. Compare. Repeat.

Humans are weird. Especially girls (sorry ladies!! it’s true) when it comes to competing and comparing. We all compete with each other about the most random and insignificant things. Most of it doesn’t matter AT ALL. We want to be the best of the best. We want to have it all together and be noticed. […]

Is this Really Happening

Lately I have been having a lot of these “is this really happening” moments. And it’s in a good way because they are good moments. I don’t know if it’s because I am getting older and I feel like I am still in high school. Or maybe it’s just because these last few years have […]

What Matters

Photo by Jessi Nichols Photography When I was in nursing school, we learned about something called Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. (I included a picture of this so it will make more sense). At the time all I heard was blah blah blahhhh. But now, the older I get and the more I am living in […]

Chloe turns ONE

Roxana and I work together in the NICU, so she had been showing me outfits and props that she had been buying. So I knew this shoot was going to be adorable… but it exceeded everything I could have imagined! For their family pictures, we found the perfect tree in my neighbors backyard. You can’t […]

Let me tell you, it was perfect. Even in all the dead of winter, it did not dissapoint. I just have to tell y’all […]

Asher is ONE

Where do I even begin with sweet Asher. His smile will steal your heart. He is just so happy, all the time. As long as his momma is in sight. But who can blame him there because she is his absolute best friend. Kristin and Asher do everything together and it is precious. I took […]

McCandless Christmas

Beth and Brandon truly have to be one of the most adorable couples. We went to high school together and it is always fun getting to see them. We might run into each other at a mutual friends wedding or get together in downtown Salisbury, NC for their Christmas pictures. They even gave me some […]

Engagements

Stephanie & Chris

These two will make your heart happy just by being around them. They are so easy to talk to and laugh with. I don’t think there is one session that goes by, that someone doesn’t say “I don’t know what to do with my hands” -Ricky Bobby (Talladega Nights) if you don’t get that reference, […]

Triplett Wedding

Hannah & Aaron had such a beautiful wedding day at Willow Creek Farm in Midland, NC. There were flowers everywhere and the perfect amount of purple color pop. I was amazed when the ties and bowties matched the dinner napkins. And then saw that the ring bearers suspenders matched too! You will just have to […]
