I grew up in a small town in Georgia, and I spent way too many days wishing I were anywhere but there.
Since then, I have learned that I have a crazy, amazing family that I love so much!
I have been blessed to have had both of my parents in my life to witness all of my mistakes, and to see me learn my lessons from them.
My mom has taught me that no matter how difficult life may get, God always has a plan for you, and you just have to trust in that. It has been proven to me that she was right.
My dad has been an inspiration to me for as long as I can remember. He was never too busy to make me feel like whatever was going on in my life was the most important thing in the world. I can assure you that I was always a dreamer, and he always allowed me to dream as big as I possibly could.
Someone I will never forget was my choir teacher in high school, Mrs. Williams. She showed me that no matter who you are, dreams can come true. Choir was my life in high school, and it made me feel like I had something to work toward. I still have a photo she gave me, and on the back it says, "I know you will always achieve your dreams! That is just the way you are, and that is why I love you!" I sincerely hope that teachers realize what an impact they can have on their students long after the class is over.
One of the best things to have ever happened to me is my husband, Christopher. Without his love, patience, unselfishness, honesty, and his "always being right" attitude, I would never be as far as I am in my life. He believed in me when I was too scared to believe in myself. He will always have my heart.
As for my photography, I want you to have a blast, and I want you to love your photos! It's that simple!
I hope to work with you soon!
