This is a place where we can dig a little bit deeper. If we were sitting on a plane together, chatting over tacos, or sipping sweet tea on my front porch, this is a snapshot of what I’d share with you.

I’ve gotten at least seven messages in the last two days on how I get such candid couples photos. I mean, that’s huge right? I feel like it’s the most commonly asked question in photography FB groups, (aside from how much to charge.) Lol! But the truth is, I didn’t always take photos like this. […]
I remember being so frustrated with the lack of sharpness in my images when I started my photography journey. They were either blurry, out of focus, or just soft. I envied photographers with tack-sharp images, like… where you could see every eyelash distinctly. (Lol!) So, I’ve compiled a list of my top 5 tips for […]
When I first started using Lightroom, it was honestly pretty overwhelming. (I’m one of the few people who actually started in Photoshop before ever using Lightroom.) But, switching my workflow from Photoshop to Lightroom was easily the greatest decision I made when it came to developing a solid, fast, and easy editing workflow— especially when […]
I remember when I started in photography, I was always so curious about how legit photographers did what they did. I’d ask myself questions like, “How did they set their cameras up? What actual settings were they using? How do their images look so great SOOC? I remember thinking things like, “I’d be embarrassed to […]
Over the years, there’s been more than a handful of things I wish I’d known about running a photography business. Thanks to years of trial and error, some post-session breakdowns, and more than a few all-nighter editing sessions, I’ve finally figured out a system that works for me and brings me only dream clients. So, I’m gonna […]
Ya’ll, I’ve been so busy traveling over the last few months that I never got to share Natalie + Ryan’s precious anniversary session here in Okinawa! ? We had SO much fun together, (we’ll just ignore the part where I literally shot their session with what felt like the flu – unknowingly. ? #dedicatedtomycraft) – […]
Okay, so HOW CUTE are Kersee + Kyle!?!? Ya’ll… I’ve been dying to share this session for days! I shot their couple’s session this past weekend here in Okinawa, and we had such a blast! They already had a spot in mind they wanted to shoot at, (turns out a lot of my little adventurous couples […]
When I was a child, I wanted to be a journalist. I wanted desperately to meet people and tell their stories. I wanted to be the one who sought people out that I thought were interesting, and then interview them about their lives. My mom even bought me a journalist barbie and had a book […]
You know how when you stare at something for so long – when you close your eyes, you can still vaguely see it? Kristina & Eric exchanged vows at their favorite spot on the island here in Okinawa, this hidden cave off the side of Sesoko beach. And I vividly remember a special moment during […]
