Got to see our boy’s face the other day. We’re smitten. ✨

I’d apologize for not posting more, but this is exactly where I want to be. Stay tuned sometime after September for our regular scheduled programming as well as an unhinged amount of baby portraits.

Greetings, dear readers. It’s been a minute. Why? (1) We moved, (2) I’ve been helping my husband at where we now live, and (3) I’m six months pregnant with Charley Silas.

As summer settles in around here and the sounds of camp reach our porch, I’m digging into some projects with awesome new friends. Here’s a product shot for a knife you can find at the shop at accented with a friend’s homemade sourdough and strawberry preserves. Happy summer from Middle Georgia, y’all.

We have moved to Georgia!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you've been following along with our move, you won't be surprised to hear that we've transitioned to Georgia.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
HOWEVER — life threw us a really interesting curveball. (No .akin ... not a baby.) A couple of weeks ago while we were packing for our move to Blue Ridge, my husband was offered his dream position as director of Camp Kaleo in Forsyth, GA (south of ATL, near Macon). We quickly pivoted our plans, grateful for this blessing, and here we sit in bewilderment on the other side.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We now live just outside the quaint city of Forsyth, Georgia, on the campus of Camp Kaleo. When we're not looking for something in the piles of boxes or staring off into space wondering how we got here, we're taking our time exploring the quaint downtown scene and the local shops in historic buildings. is living her best life as a camp dog, swimming in the lake and living leash-free during the off-season.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay tuned for more as our journey continues. Next, we'll be moving into the director's residence aaaannndd painting all the things white. Hoping to steal away for a walk with my film camera as the sun sets on one of these late summer evenings. Share more soon! DM me with all the shocked emojis and your fav camp memories as a kid. xoxo

— goodbye old house. first house. lots of friends have come through this door over the past three years. lots of late-night goodbyes and "we'll do this again soon!" exchanges yelled from the stoop as and I hug and wave. we'll do this again soon, just from another front door in georgia.

— One of my favorite things to tell you during sessions these days: "Move your hands around like a hippie dancing."

16/08/2021

— golden hour in my backyard. i like to lay on my back and watch the light change in this tree as the sun dips down behind the roof.

14/08/2021

— ↖️↖️↖️ It's SO much fun trying out new poses when people are down for whatever. how many times did you almost fall backward leaning like that? 😆

13/08/2021

— The light can catch in the trees a certain way and *boom* I'm jumping on the trampoline with my little brother in 1999, seeing who can touch the highest in the magnolia tree. Smells remind most people of memories. Light does it to me.

— if you get barefoot and dance during your session we might be kindred souls
