As you await the birth of your second child, you wonder how you could love this newborn even remotely as much as you love your firstborn. It seems impossible. But after your sweet second baby is born, there is no doubt in your mind: your heart was just somehow made more full by the addition...
I don’t 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...
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 Luca’s birthday is a...
I love beach sessions on the Gulf Coast. Children can run in the sand, splash in the water, and make memories with their parents, not even realizing we are having a portrait session. The beach also has an amazing way of making everyone excited- because it’s the beach!! This precious family had perfect weather and...
Sunshine and Spring time for this field session with the most adorable family. The Gulf Coast is blooming and beautifully green this time of year, and I love it!! Every time I do a field session, I love seeing the children run and play. It helps me photograph them the way they play in their...

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 here…my friend Michelle hosted our 2nd Christmas In July #Mahjong get together, brought out a Christmas tree complete with her very own #needlepointornaments 🎄and Christmas brunch for dinner. We made Christmas tree shaped banana bread, but truth be told, we make it like that year round.
✨ Today was a milestone. ✨
Kennedy, my second baby, got braces. 🩵
All the baby teeth are gone, and somehow she’s looking more grown up than ever. It’s amazing how the little milestones sneak up on you until one day you realize they’re not so little anymore.
If there’s one thing motherhood has taught me, it’s this: document every age. Every season. Every smile. Every missing tooth, every awkward phase, every milestone. One day you’ll 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. ❤️
Here’s to growing up… 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. ✨🎅🏼
Some of those tiny believers are now teenagers. Some have welcomed younger siblings into the tradition. And every year, we’re reminded that the greatest gift isn’t just the portraits—it’s 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. ❤️

Because the magic of your family deserves to be celebrated all year long—not just at Christmas. 🎁
The Santa Experience has always been about so much more than a photo. It’s the excitement, the anticipation, and the memories your children will carry long after they’ve outgrown believing.
Every visit includes the traditions you’ve come to love:
🍪 Personalized cookies
🎄 A handwritten Nice List
🎨 A Christmas craft
🎅🏼 Santa wish lists
☕ Handmade lattes for the grown-ups
🎠 A play area for the littlest visitors
📸 Magical portraits with Santa
Thank you for trusting us with your Christmas memories for the past 10 years. We truly couldn’t imagine celebrating this milestone without you. ❤️

Senior year has a way of flying by, but there’s still time to freeze it—your personality, your style, this exact moment before everything changes. I have a limited number of last-minute senior portrait spots open, and I’ll make the process easy, relaxed, and genuinely fun. Don’t let this milestone slip by undocumented—let’s make something you’ll treasure long after graduation. ✨
I went to my husband’s college campus recently. A flood of incredible memories came flooding back when we were there, but the overarching thought that I couldn’t 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 hold…
Senior year is such a special, fleeting season—full of personality, confidence, and big dreams just ahead. These portraits capture your child exactly as they are right now, before life carries them into what’s next. Years from now, these images will take you right back to these moments. It’s more than a session—it’s a way to hold onto a season that passes far too quickly.
Spring break showed up right on time… and brought the most perfect beach days with it ☀️🌊
Warm sunshine, salty air, sandy toes—and the sweetest way to celebrate a first trip around the sun 🎂 This little beach babe turned ONE surrounded by the people who love her most, with waves crashing and laughter filling the air.
It doesn’t get much better than this—milestones, memories, and a little bit of magic tucked into a golden evening. ✨
