I donโt usually lead out a blog post with a photograph of a dad. I am a lover of motherhood portraiture and a believer that we, as moms, struggle to be seen in photographs with our children for a myriad of reasons. However, as a mom and a wife, I know that having children exponentially...
Senior portraits are some of my favorite to photograph. You know I love the connection between a mama and her baby, but the mom, full of pride at what her baby has accomplished in 17 short years is a different kind of magic to watch. Senior year is fast-paced, especially if you play sports like...
Have you heard? Paisley Studios has a new studio space on the Historic Malbis Plantation property! You are going to love it! I have a cozy little cottage for indoor sessions and changing into the studio wardobe, and the outdoor possibilities are endless with the gorgeous grounds! This precious session on Lucaโs birthday is a...
I am a people person. I love meeting people, especially people with small children and newborns. I met this sweet family when they had just one little one and I photographed them one spring, years ago. Since then, I have had the privilege of being their newborn photographer for their second daughter and now son....

I'm so glad you stopped in! Get cozy and take a look around. When you see these images, I hope you feel inspired to have portraits made with your children, inspired to make memories in the form of photographs. Help your children understand the way they were loved and hugged and cherished.
We take Christmas in July seriously over hereโฆmy friend Michelle hosted our 2nd Christmas In July #Mahjong get together, brought out a Christmas tree complete with her very own #needlepointornaments ๐and Christmas brunch for dinner. We made Christmas tree shaped banana bread, but truth be told, we make it like that year round.
โจ Today was a milestone. โจ
Kennedy, my second baby, got braces. ๐ฉต
All the baby teeth are gone, and somehow sheโs looking more grown up than ever. Itโs amazing how the little milestones sneak up on you until one day you realize theyโre not so little anymore.
If thereโs one thing motherhood has taught me, itโs this: document every age. Every season. Every smile. Every missing tooth, every awkward phase, every milestone. One day youโll look back and realize those ordinary moments were the ones that mattered most.
The days can feel long, but the years truly are so short. โค๏ธ
Hereโs to growing upโฆ even when this mama wishes time would slow down just a little.

Ten years ago, we welcomed our very first Santa families into Paisley Studios. Since then, hundreds of little ones have walked through our doors and into the wonder of Christmas. โจ๐
๐ผ
Some of those tiny believers are now teenagers. Some have welcomed younger siblings into the tradition. And every year, weโre reminded that the greatest gift isnโt just the portraitsโitโs watching your families grow.
As we celebrate 10 magical years of The Santa Experience, we wanted to give something back to the families who have made it so special. โค๏ธ

Because the magic of your family deserves to be celebrated all year longโnot just at Christmas. ๐
The Santa Experience has always been about so much more than a photo. Itโs the excitement, the anticipation, and the memories your children will carry long after theyโve outgrown believing.
Every visit includes the traditions youโve come to love:
๐ช Personalized cookies
๐ A handwritten Nice List
๐จ A Christmas craft

๐ผ Santa wish lists
โ Handmade lattes for the grown-ups
๐ A play area for the littlest visitors

Thank you for trusting us with your Christmas memories for the past 10 years. We truly couldnโt imagine celebrating this milestone without you. โค๏ธ

Senior year has a way of flying by, but thereโs still time to freeze itโyour personality, your style, this exact moment before everything changes. I have a limited number of last-minute senior portrait spots open, and Iโll make the process easy, relaxed, and genuinely fun. Donโt let this milestone slip by undocumentedโletโs make something youโll treasure long after graduation. โจ
I went to my husbandโs college campus recently. A flood of incredible memories came flooding back when we were there, but the overarching thought that I couldnโt get out of my head was how much life we have lived since those days. Just kids with a dream and no idea what the future would actually holdโฆ
Senior year is such a special, fleeting seasonโfull of personality, confidence, and big dreams just ahead. These portraits capture your child exactly as they are right now, before life carries them into whatโs next. Years from now, these images will take you right back to these moments. Itโs more than a sessionโitโs a way to hold onto a season that passes far too quickly.
Spring break showed up right on timeโฆ and brought the most perfect beach days with it โ๏ธ๐
Warm sunshine, salty air, sandy toesโand the sweetest way to celebrate a first trip around the sun ๐ This little beach babe turned ONE surrounded by the people who love her most, with waves crashing and laughter filling the air.
It doesnโt get much better than thisโmilestones, memories, and a little bit of magic tucked into a golden evening. โจ
