I've
always been
storyteller.

But I never set out to be a photographer. I was (and still am!) going to be a writer. And then as I worked toward that writing goal, someone put a camera in my hand and asked me to try telling stories with something besides words. So with an English nerd's love for character and tone, a romantic's love for poignant beauty, and a realist's love for imperfection, I dove in.

I've
always been a
story-teller.

That was back in 2010.

Since that time, photography has changed much of my life. It's brought me some of my dearest friends. It's reshaped the way my husband Danny and I view serving others. It has even literally taken me around the world. One thing that hasn't changed: my soul-stirring desire to tell stories that feel so real you're sure you knew them before you heard them. Or saw them. It's my privilege to tell those stories for my clients, and for the generations of their families still to come.

Their’s was a wedding that happened quickly, but it was far from unplanned. Sisi and Justis had been a couple since starting pharmacy school in 2010, engaged for a year, and happily planning a wedding for next summer when a thought suddenly occurred to them: Why wait? There was no telling what life would bring […]

He almost couldn’t believe his eyes. After her hair and makeup were completed and she stepped into her gown, she almost hadn’t believed her eyes, either. As Sisi slipped down to meet her groom at their first look, she looked glamorous and radiantly happy, and her groom couldn’t help beaming right back at her. “You look […]

It was a long journey that brought Yi and Michael together, to Christ, and to each other. She traveled from halfway around the world to attend Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, while he barely had to venture beyond his hometown to meet the girl of his dreams. Michael noticed Yi first, and his interest was piqued; she […]

Yesterday, Yi and Michael got married at our church. He beamed proudly as she walked down the aisle on her father’s arm; she cried as they held hands, and he offered his shirt cuff for a handkerchief. Happily ever after is underway. Have a wonderful time in Savannah, you two! Congratulations!~ Laura + Danny

The forecast called for rain — more rain, even, than on the evening of their engagement portraits at Vilano Beach two days before. But Emily and Demian were ready to embrace their day, whatever the weather brought. You could see Emily’s elation in the way she grinned in the makeup chair. You could hear in Demian’s voice […]

They had waited so, so long for this. They had waited through one courthouse vow exchange, the births of four little girls, four years’ worth of deployments overseas — altogether, they had waited nearly a decade. And then, with their lives in full gear, these two high school sweethearts finally had their wedding, with their […]
