Hey how you doin’ lil’ mama? -Ying Yang Twins

These two were just so dang cute. You could see the silly, overwhelming love they have for one another. Leah was so intentional with how she wanted to incorporate their love story to their session. She brought cute mugs from Another Broken Egg Cafe, a cute little breakfast and brunch restaurant here in Fairhope, Alabama. They had their first date there and wanted to showcase that into the session—-swoon! How adorable right?

Roberts | Lifestyle Family Photography | Fairhope Family Photographer | Fort Morgan Alabama

Kelly contacted me earlier this year about scheduling her family photos and I was so excited to hear from her. Kelly took my motherhood workshop a couple of years and has really grown as a photographer. She takes the most beautiful photos of her little boy and is just a overall sweet human being. When we spoke she mentioned doing them at the historic Fort Morgan down in Fort Morgan. I was so excited to go down and explore with her and her family.

I was so happy when Natalie messaged me. Natalie is beyond a talented woman and if you know her, you love her. She is a trainer at the local gym here in Fairhope, Fit Fairhope. She is also an amazing seamstress and just started a children’s line as well ( Threads and Bobbins and Threads and Bobbins Clothing.) So to work with her and her precious family was such a treat! Natalie and her sweet family were just days away from visiting their family from the UK and got up very early to meet me to take their family photos. The magic that these three share is beautiful, nothing but short of a fairytale.

I love watching families grow. It’s literally the best thing about being a photographer. The Gray family has allowed me to capture their family going on three years now and I LOVE IT. Family documentary sessions are my jam and I’m so thankful that the Gray family let me tag along for all of their sweet home shenanigans. This session might just be my favorite yet.

Luckie Family | in-home lifestyle session | Fairhope Family Photographer | Fairhope Alabama

I love watching families grow. It’s one of, if not the best things I love about being a photographer.

I have watched the Luckie family grow since their oldest son, Crosby, was one year old. They invited me into their home in Fairhope, Alabama to take his one year portraits.

The rest is history.

Now it’s Chandler’s turn.

From Chandler’s newborn photos, to his six month photos, to now his one year photos. Watching and documenting these moments for Brittany and Corey have been such a privilege. It means the world to me, honestly.

Gray | Family Documentary | Fairhope Family Photographer | Fairhope Alabama

I truly love family documentary sessions. They are hands down my favorite thing to capture. Having a family welcome me into their home and be completely raw and real with me while I’m clicking away is just beautiful.

Christy reached out to me and explained how much she really wanted everyday life photos of her and her family. She and her family had recently moved to the Fairhope, Alabama from Canada and she wanted some photos of her with her family in their new house just doing their thing. She went on to explain that she has maybe a handful of photos of her with her kids and how she desperately wanted some of her just adoring her children doing all of the mundane things that they do on a daily basis. That’s when I immediately felt connected to her because us moms are usually the ones taking photos. I knew I had to get those moments her.

Lindell | Family Documentary | Fairhope, Alabama Family Documentary Photographer

Rachel wanted to document her family one last time in the home that meant the most to her. This was the first home her and husband bought together. This was the home that welcomed both of her children. This was the home that helped start their story.

Rachel loved her front yard. She told me that her family had lots of picnics, relaxation, and every inch of that yard has been full of laughter. So we spent the entire afternoon reminiscing on special memories that her family shared in that house, playing, and eating popsicles. It was a laid back fun afternoon. No schedule, no prompts. Just hanging out and letting the day unfold.

It won't be like this forever. | Lifestyle and Family Documentary | Fairhope Family Photographer

It won’t be like this forever.

The days are long, but the years are short. Really short.

Being a mother is hard. Motherhood doesn’t come with vacation days or even sick days. It’s hard to describe but even through the sweat and tears, there is a a kind of joy, a joy that only a mother could really understand. It’s 3 AM feedings, scrapped knee kisses, and the ‘one more song mama’ even though you have already sang twenty.

It’s an unconditional love.
