To my mentor - my Cheri Lyn Photography - the one who believed in my freshly graduated, very inexperienced, yet optimistic, 22 year old self. I love you. 🥰 Every wedding we have photographed together has been a gift. All the time and energy and knowledge you have poured into me - I am so incredibly thankful. You can be humble all you want but I wouldn’t have the wedding career I have now if you hadn’t answered my Facebook message and met up with me at Panera all those years ago. 🫶🏻 I’m forever grateful you. 🫶🏻

Two weeks out from surgery and I can't believe how fast it has arrived! Thank you to everyone who has booked their fall photos early this year. I'll be shooting and editing like crazy for the next 14 days. Then I will see you all after Thanksgiving for Christmas minis and Santa!! 🎅

Hey hey - Sammie here.

I wanted to jump on and address the most recent court ruling on AI. I haven’t posted consistently in a little while and part of that is due to the growing concerns of AI and what privacy and safety look like moving forward.

The internet has always been an iffy place and I never shared images that parents did not want me to share. In the past year or so I have pulled back from sharing my own kids on my personal page. I used to post and share all the fun things. Now I keep it to milestones or occasional photo dumps.

All that to say - I will not be sharing kids’ faces anymore. Even if you sign a social media release I will not be sharing identifiable faces of anyone 18 and under on my pages.

I will also be working towards removing identifiable kids’ faces from my website. Galleries will still have all of your images. I’m not going to start posing only to hide faces. Everything will be the same. Your galleries will still have happy smiley faces. I just won’t be sharing them on my socials.

If the laws catch up to keeping our kids safe I may reevaluate. But moving forward it’s going to look a little different here.

🖤 Sammie

Cade is going to be a big brother! And somehow every time I see him he gets cuter and cuter! 🥹🥹

Spent the 4th with these two and it was such a perfect day! We even got all of our photos done before the rain started. That's a massive win!
