CREATIVE SESSION // AMBER

Amber Phinisee is one of the sweetest people I know. (She also takes some fabulous pictures!) I was so incredibly excited when she contacted me to do a session, and I am certainly looking forward to the sessions in the future.

I was able to utilize The Terminal Station in Macon, and absolutely loved the clean lights and soft warm light that the location provided.

//

Amber, thank you so much for such a great experience all around. I truly feel so relaxed around you and just LOVE talking to you about our common passions. The love you have for God and those around you is so very evident in conversation and in action. Keep your chin up and continue to reach for your dreams. Love you, girl.

Enjoy, friends.

LADY IN RED // ALLIE

There's little to be said and much to be seen of Allie's vibrant, sun-lit session.

She and I have become good friends over the neatest associations, and our passions for Jesus and photography have certainly kept the initial bond going.

//

Thanks so much, Allie, for another meeting filled with rich conversation, sunlight, and laughter. You're a gem and a joy to be around!

//
Enjoy, friends.

A SOUTHERN ENGAGEMENT // KAYLA & RYAN

It was an unexpectedly freezing morning--perfect inspiration to get Kayla and Ryan cuddling more than usual.

Their session was held at the lovely ranch of Plantation Farms--offering trinkets of Southern charm to act as the canvas of their session. Kayla is a Southern Belle through-and-through. From her sweet accent to her cowboy boots--she exudes the charm of a Georgia peach. I love her contagious laughter--and it definitely brought out some sweet smiles from Ryan during the session.

//

Kayla and Ryan, I count it an honor to have experienced your proposal. I will never forget that Sunday morning... Ryan was SO nervous and Kayla--you had no clue what was about to happen. There is a special charm about your relationship. You are both hard-working yet fun-loving. But it was so easy to notice the best thing about you during your session--you are madly in love with each other. I know I couldn't say a more sappy thing, but Ryan--there's just something about the way you look at her. It's undeniable that you two love each other. I am SO excited about your wedding day. It will certainly be here before you know it!

Enjoy, friends.

SENIOR SESSION // NIKKI

Nikki's a girl after my own heart. She has the most adorable thrift store wardrobe, has a true appreciation for art, and amazes me every time we talk with some kind of incredible wisdom on some particular subject. She's inspiration personified.

I was so stoked when she showed up to the session in this adorable mens-shirt-turned-bow-halter. It was one of those random warm days in a cold week, and she was able to wear the adorable halter, then change into a cozier wardrobe of sweater+jacket.

//

Nikki, from the first encounter of you, I knew you'd continue to be a bundle of ridiculous inspiration. And you are. With every conversation, picture, Facebook check-in, I find myself learning something new and wonderful (or challenging) about the world, faith, art, etc. Not to mention, you have an impeccable taste in music and the like. You are one cool kid. More than anything, what I seriously admire about you is your solidarity of faith. You stand so firmly on what you believe, what you know, what you're learning--your strength is contagious. I'm confident in saying you've challenged me through almost everyone of our conversations. Don't stop being you... whatever that means. ;)

SWEET & SIMPLE // SENIOR / KATELIN

There was such an ease to Katelin's session. With her contagious smile and stunning red hair, there was little effort to be made to capture her beauty. I am so in love with the property we shot on as well. Couldn't ask for a more beautiful palette of colors to work with in correspondence to Katelin's natural beauty.

//

Katelin, it was an honor to be able to photograph you at such a monumental season in your life. I pray these pictures serve as a reminder to you of how beautifully God created you--inside and out. There's a joy that you carry with you that brings those around you to smile. Hold onto that and you'll be certain to impact everyone you come in contact with. Dream big over your future and don't settle for anything less that what you're passionate for. I believe in you and wish you all the best!

Enjoy, friends.
