Karcynn messaged me a few months ago to do pictures and right before their session, sweet Laikynn broke her leg.  We waited for her cast to come off and the day finally came and it was our last session of the year!!! I actually loved the look in this photo with the warm tones that […]

It had been so long since I last photographed mid-day that I had to go back into the lighting course that I took and remember what was said about mid day sessions.  With the trees, the beautiful fall colors, and a gorgeous family, it was easy!! I love how the fall colors are now popping […]

I got to photograph this beautiful family in our downtown area.  When we were out there, you could  definitely tell that it was Christmas time with lots of photographers capturing other peoples memories as well. I just loved the different textures and colors at the location for this family with the historical background.

Laura has brought her beautiful children to me before to do a photoshoot with going back to school, but the is the first time I got to capture all of them together! I love the kiddo’s personalities and even their facial expressions! I also loved that if they didn’t want to pose a certain way, […]

This is my most favorite event of the year!! This was our 2nd Annual Boudi Call Event and I remember waking up that morning so excited!! I had zero nervousness, but knew I was going to be hanging out with girls and friends all day having fun, bringing that sexy out!! I know every girl […]

I know Tara from a business that I go to occasionally and she reached out and wanted to do some Boudoir pictures for her husband.  She was so much fun and I loved her smile in these pictures. I love it when I have a session with someone and we just click and they are […]

Chaela and I are both photographers and she also is our Hair and Makeup artist here at Joyful Memories Photography!  Every year we take pictures of each other to […]

I met Rebecca a year or so ago, because she also is a local photographer.  We met up one day and I felt like we clicked.  She is so sweet and caring with a big heart!  She also announced she was pregnant when I was pregnant and we were due just 2 days apart. We […]

I had photographed Tamilyn before in a Halloween session.  She came to me and said she wanted me to do her pictures since those pictures are what helped John reach out to her.  They are engaged and madly in love and I love it!!! Originally we were going to do an Engagement land session and […]

I have known Ngozi for a decade or two.  She went to the school that I worked at and also graduated at.  Ngozi’s birthday is the day before Halloween and so we did a dark photo session.  One thing that I love about Ngozi is that she is her own self! She doesn’t care what […]
