  • Transparent moment: I am a perfectionist at times and cannot let it go when it’s not right. I’m not on Beyoncé s level, but it’s there. I just could not get this pose right and gave up for the sake of time. Then this was the most genuine one expression wise. Everything in me wanted to delete it because the posing was off, but I loved it too much. I said all that to say, “Don’t toss something that isn’t perfect, it might be just right”. (This goes for anything, dating too, but don’t get crazy with it my friends 😅)
  • I love the peace and confidence in this photo. @thedsignherdnate has such style and grace. It was an honor to capture it 💕
  • This throwback reminded me of today in the studio. Every shoot I do I try to have my full team, but when I can’t, I’ve learned enough from makeup counters, pageants, and one on ones, to hold my own. One of my fave things to apply is lipstick. A good lip really sets off a photo! I’m also missing my old hair length looking at this pic!
  • One of my fave teens on the planet. I’ve seen her grow up since day one. I can’t wait to photograph her senior year 🥰
  • Hand painting my own backdrops is a tedious, yet rewarding, task. I love that it will always be unique to my studio and that a little piece of my other passion aka talent is being used 😊
  • Graduation doesn’t have to be remembered with a cap and gown. It can be a glorious reminder of being beautiful and free! I loved this dress @keia_v brought in. We celebrated graduating pharmacy school in a glamorous way 🥰.
  • Just one more. I loved this shoot! I never watch the Golden Globes but I always check in the next day for the gowns 😍. I know that the average person won’t get the chance to experience an expensive gown so I try to make pieces of fabric look like one. This is one of my favorite classic looks! Two strips of fabric making a gorgeous faux gown. And a pair of statement earrings from my closet to bring the whole look together! Dress up is my fave 🥰
  • I’m so excited for the shoots lined up for the month! Studio work is something I never thought I’d do. What is something you didn’t think you had in you but you surprised yourself?
  • One of my favorite products! The 9 Up allows you to have a collage of expression. This add-on wall Portrait is the perfect way to get a little bit of everything 🥰
  • Looking back at 2019 with gratefulness for every client that joined me on my journey to providing a luxury experience 💕. I can’t wait to continue capturing legacies in 2020! Do you want to experience what a session with me is like? Visit my site for more 🥰
  • Happy New Year folks! If you don’t have your plan yet, it’s okay! Ignore the ones who say you’re late. There are too many standards out there. Go to the beat of your own drum in 2020 🍾
  • I guess you could say I do boudoir a little different 😍 I love a glam experience with a touch of intimacy. I absolutely loved creating this gift. It was for herself and shared with her spouse. I love the first part, “for herself”. Boudoir is not about doing photos for someone else. The pampering and embracing all of who you are is what it’s about, it’s for you. I love when I’m trusted with these special moments 💕
  • Oops! Forgot to post this last Thursday. Also forgot to set my out of office response 🤷🏽‍♀️💁🏽‍♀️So here it is! I’ve been off to see my extended family and will respond when I return! I hope you are all taking advantage of time with your families 💕 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🎊
  • You can tell by the look on his face that he knows just how special she is 😍. @nicoleglymph Happy Birthday to you! I love that after years of talking about it we were finally able to work together. I think it was well worth the wait 💕. I hope you’ve enjoyed your birthday so far. And I need to hear all about this “unspeakably amazing” spa trip. Spill all the tea please 💁🏽‍♀️.
  • Can I still share these? 😅 This is me 👋🏽 If you know me, you know I’m always a little late to the party. I shared a few of these earlier this year but I stumbled across them again while making some content for a presentation (checkout my post on @smitnphotography to see my upcoming speaking/teaching engagement). @marisolhphotography you caught my good side 👈🏽 😉. I just had a discussion with a potential client the other day about how sometimes we judge ourselves so harshly about how we look in photos just to come back a few days later, or months even, just to realize we actually looked pretty darn good. Is anyone else like that? Can’t be just me. Also, I dyed my hair, cut it, and grew some eyebrows since these photos were taken. Thanks again @marisolhphotography Can’t wait til next time!
