Client Spotlight “The Banks Family”

It’s always such a joy for me when I get to spend the evening with the dear Banks family! This time was extra special as I got to meet their new precious baby girl! The kiddos are every beat of Mom and Dad’s hearts and completely have mine! They all had so much fun together blowing bubbles and lots of hugs on that very special evening. They all made memories on that beautiful evening that they will cherish for generations to come!

Cody + Kadance’s Surprise Engagement

Cody + Kadance’s Beautiful Surprise Engagement

Where do we even begin? Cody truly knocked it out of the park planning this perfect moment for Kadance, and she had no idea. From the sweet proposal on the sand to all the emotion, love, and joy captured in these photos, we are just obsessed with this session.

What makes this story even more special? Cody came across a backdrop inspiration photo he loved and shared the idea with his aunt. She took that vision and thoughtfully created a stunning custom backdrop just for their proposal. It turned out beautifully and added the perfect finishing touch to their special moment.

We’re also excited to share that Aunt Pat will now be working alongside us to design custom backdrops for all of your special occasions. We are so grateful to welcome her to the Lashes and Lenses Photography team and can’t wait to create more beautiful moments together.

Thank you, Cody and Kadance, for allowing us to capture such an unforgettable memory.

The Bonds Family

There’s nothing sweeter than kiddos who are every bit of their parents’ hearts and completely stole mine! At the Bonds family beach session, the magic was undeniable: they had toes in the sand, sun-kissed giggles, and wishes whispered to starfish. They twirled through a dreamy mommy-daughter dance in the water And in between the fun, there were soft, quiet snuggles — the kind that speak love louder than words ever could. A perfect evening, full of heart and memories to last a lifetime.

Savannah + Owen’s Surprise Engagement

A Beachside “Yes!” — Savannah & Owen’s Surprise Engagement

When Owen began planning the perfect proposal for Savannah, he knew it had to be somewhere as breathtaking as their love story — and what better place than the peaceful white sands and soft sea breeze of the Gulf Coast?

With the help of our team, Owen orchestrated a picture-perfect surprise engagement photoshoot. Nestled between the dunes, a cozy beach setup awaited Savannah — complete with rose petals, lanterns, and a sign that read “Marry Me.” As Owen dropped to one knee, Savannah’s hands flew to her face in joyful surprise! The moment was pure magic, captured forever against the backdrop of the ocean and a pastel sky.

From the genuine emotion to the radiant “yes,” every frame tells a story of love, surprise, and a new chapter just beginning.

Congratulations, Savannah and Owen! Thank you for letting us be a part of such a meaningful and unforgettable moment. 💍🌊
