Grace : STM Senior

The UL Alumni Center + The Hilliard Art Museum on UL’s Campus always makes for the perfect space for a Senior Session! 2025 STM Senior, Grace, is so full of pure JOY and that shows!! She is graduating this May and attending Louisiana Tech University in Ruston in the Fall. I was so honored to document her final days as a high school senior.

Driver : Wedding

Even the most intimate of weddings are only made possible by having a team of vendors come together to create magic which is why first and foremost I need to commend the amazing vendors for the Neustrom / Driver wedding this past November. Thankful to have been a part of this beautiful wedding day for Mary + Daniel.

November 2023 mom did another full Ironman so of course I flew out to Tempe Arizona to document! These are a few of my favorites from the day. She is a BEAST and did amazing. The finish line feel is like no other!! If you’ve never witnessed a triathlon of any size, I highly recommend doing so! Talk about motivation. Congrats to my mama, LISA!! YOU. ARE. AN IRONMAN.
