THEY ARE NOT EASY.  Here’s why: You’re juggling many people in one image, you’re making sure lighting is where you need it, all eyes are looking at you, everyone is positioned […]

Engagements

Emily and Travis were such an amazing couple to work with. Travis wanted something with a lot of landscape and desert themed where Emily wanted backlighting and some gorgeous sunset photos. We found a great compromise at Enchanted Rock in Texas and hiked to the top of this state park to get these amazing color […]

This photoshoot was nothing short of the representation of how you never truly know where life is going to take you.
