I’ll be honest. I skipped maternity photos with my firstborn, and five years later, I still regret it. So whenever a family contacts me wanting a maternity session, whether it’s their first baby or their fourth, I get so excited! The Armstrong family wanted to document their family of three before the birth of their […]

Expectant families are usually pretty quick to consider scheduling newborn photos. Maternity photos, however, sometimes fall to the wayside and get skipped. I hope these Decatur, Alabama maternity photos will change your mind! It’s always so sweet to capture a family as they’re transitioning from one child to two. For a little while, it’s just […]

As I’m writing, it’s the first week of August. This has always been a bit of a confusing month for me, because it feels like we’re straddling two seasons – the end of sweet, slow summer, and the beginning of cozy autumn (even though, realistically, it won’t be consistently cooler here until closer to Thanksgiving). […]

As a Huntsville, AL newborn photographer, one of my favorite parts about my job is getting to connect with other mamas. Savannah and I met via Instagram and connected through our mutual love of reading and the Lord. She and her husband, Nate, moved here to Huntsville not too long ago and found out they […]

This Huntsville, Alabama newborn session was a dream. From the moment I walked in the door, greeted with open arms, Shyann and Ryan’s joy was simply contagious. This couple had just moved to the Huntsville area, started new jobs, and welcomed their first baby all within a few months. That’s a lot for anyone to […]

In 2021, I gave birth to my third child. I get to raise three little boys whom I so desperately love and want to connect with, to speak truth into, and to be present with on a daily basis. As a mother of three, daily rhythms are essential. I have always enjoyed structuring my days […]

Sometimes life just brings full-circle moments. This Huntsville, Alabama maternity session was one of them. A couple of years ago, Rachel (the mom photographed and a very talented photographer in Birmingham, Alabama) took my own family’s photos during the fall. I noticed that she was shooting film, something I hadn’t gotten to see someone do […]

Putting together your family’s outfits for photos can be hard! There are so many beautiful options to choose from, and it can get overwhelming. While I love offering my clients access to my selection of dresses, I know that sometimes it’s fun to purchase your own! I’ve put together a list of spring photo session […]

One of my favorite things to do during my pregnancies is design the nursery. I’ve had three boys now, but I love to give them their own special rooms and designs. I spend so much time in their nurseries with them as babies, changing, rocking, and singing to them. It’s precious time that I hold […]

It still feels a little surreal to say, but my sweet baby boy is finally here! Caleb James Bell made his arrival at 11:50 pm on December 27, 2021, at 8 pounds 9 ounces and 21 inches long. I can’t fully put into words the amount of joy that his little life has already brought […]
