The Boone family’s beach session turned into a night they will never forget! 🤍💍

Sweet Arianna thought she was simply enjoying family photos on the beach, but Brock had a very special surprise planned! She was completely surprised when he got down on one knee and asked her to spend forever with him.

What started as a beautiful evening with family turned into one of the most special nights of Arianna’s life, and we were so honored to capture every bit of the surprise, excitement, and love!

Congratulations, Arianna & Brock! 💍🤍 Here’s to forever!

Sandy and Kevin’s 50th Anniversary

What an incredible honor it was to capture Sandy & Kevin as they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary at beautiful Johnson’s Beach!

Every detail of their session had such a special meaning. Sandy & Kevin had beautiful new rings made especially to celebrate their 50 years of marriage, a symbol of five decades of love, commitment, memories, and a life built together.

And Sandy’s gorgeous green dress held a sweet story of its own. She chose green because that’s the color she was wearing the very first time she and Kevin met all those years ago! How precious is that?!

Of course, Aunt Pat helped make their celebration even more personal with a special 50th anniversary sign created just for them.

Fifty years together is something truly worth celebrating, and we loved getting to capture this beautiful milestone for Sandy & Kevin. From the meaningful little details to the love they still so clearly share, their evening was a beautiful reminder of just how special a lifetime of love can be.

Happy 50th Anniversary, Sandy & Kevin! Here’s to the beautiful memories you’ve made over the past five decades and all those still to come!

It’s always such a joy for me when I get to spend an evening with the sweet Bayliff family! This evening was extra special because I finally got to meet their precious new baby girl, the same sweet little one I had the honor of photographing last year while she was still in Mommy’s tummy!

One of my favorite parts of photographing returning families is getting to see how much the children have grown and watching their beautiful family story continue to unfold in front of my camera.

There was so much love, laughter, and fun shared together that beautiful summer evening! The sweet Bayliff family made memories they will all cherish for generations to come.
