Are you a mom with a camera who desires to capture more beautiful images of your family legacy? Stay tuned in 2021 because I can’t wait to share with you some teaching opportunities rolling out next year!

This school year didn’t end like anyone had planned it. All our favorite Mountain Chapel Preschool spring traditions didn’t get to happen. No music program, no art show, no class picture, no May Day Play Day. I cried and grieved when Dixon’s last year of preschool abruptly came to an unexpected and shortened end. Like […]

Last summer, we had the best maternity pictures taken with my friend Kensi of Magnolia Photography! There’s a super fun Insta Story saved with my behind the scenes. Because we are in quarantine and James is almost nine months old, I figured it was time to share! Love + Blessings, LA Photographer: Magnolia Photography Hair […]

Dixon has been in a pool since his very first summer. We’ve always lived in neighborhoods with pools, so it’s been a normal part of our lives to spend warm days at one. Last summer we lived at the pool! I was HUGE pregnant and had very little energy to help a very active four […]

So much life has happened since we shot this session last summer! I’m no longer SUPER pregnant. Baby James is already SIX MONTHS! Dixon turned Five. Josh cut down his massive beard! In the Headley Family, Madison is over halfway through first grade.Ava wears the CUTEST blonde pigtails. Emmett had grown what seems like a […]

Even though I had a birth photographer scheduled, I really wanted to try to shoot my own Fresh 48 session. I love these hospital newborn lifestyle photos. There’s nothing quite like the time in the hospital after a new baby comes, and that sweet baby will never be that tiny again. I love documenting their […]

In 2020, I hope to do a better job blogging. Here we are, Baby James is three months old today, and I’m just now sitting down to write out his birth story. Better late than never! Life as a family of four is busy and there’s never a dull moment in the Goodin house. Since […]
