…because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
- Henry David Thoreau

You shoot the moon, and miss completely. – Norah Jones

Every now and then, I will have a session that just blows my mind and gives me the warm fuzzies. Working with Kristin + Joel was just that- even though we are getting ready to move into the autumn months, it warms me all up inside when I look at these images. Almost every single image made me catch my breath… Kristin, you are truly breath taking. I can’t wait to work with you again.

Wished we could have celebrated in Baton Rouge with you!

Abbey booked us almost a year ago to shoot her sweet Alys Beach wedding and I knew when I met her that this was going to be a day that we would cherish. Abbey + Denson are made for each other in every way possible… God truly made a soul mate for the other in this couple and we loved witnessing the union of these two souls.

During the ceremony, the family surrounded Abbey + Denson and prayed for strength in their marriage and in their faith. It was such a lovely day.
