Being a lifestyle family photographer in the Huntsville, Madison and surrounding areas means wearing many hats. 

One of those hats is professional storyteller. 

Where most use words to tell a beautiful story,

I use images. 

When this sweet mama reached out to me it wasn't just to update her Fall photos-although there is nothing wrong with that!

She had a specific, tender and very real story she wanted told. Things in the bond between her and her son that she wanted captured. 

And to truly do her story justice takes more than just showing up with a camera on any given day.

It took conversations between she and I.

Questionnaires and reflective questions for her to answer in order to help me best paint the scene and plan out all of the little details that go into the making of a beautiful documentary. 

It took curating styling that supported and enhanced their narrative, rather than pull away from it. 

It takes trust in the process, trust in me as the professional and time. 

And this is why you hire a professional photographer. 

Because you have a beautiful story to tell as well and it deserves to be handled with love and care. 

I'd love to know what feelings you get when you see these images. 

What story you hear being told?
