Anne-Marie + Brett : Maternity + Surprise Proposal

I can’t even explain how much love I have for these two. Anne-Marie has been my work bestie (gymnastics coach) for the last almost FIVE years!! I was already thrilled that she asked me to do a maternity session, but the best part was that Brett secretly messaged me to plan his proposal to her. The most perfect day and it ended with Mom + Dad getting engaged!! Can’t wait to meet baby BOY in just a few weeks.

Location : St. Julien Park - Broussard, LA

Dress : Maven Womenswear - River Ranch, Lafayette, LA

Greyson + Na Na

No one told me that becoming Na Na Nicole would literally change my life. I know that sounds cliché and kind of cringe, but it’s TRUE! I would do anything for my siblings’ children and I treat them as my own. My heart aches when I’m not with them and every second spent together is truly so special. I am so thankful to have spent Christmas + a few extra days with my nephew, Greyson.

Breaux : Family Session

Can you believe this session was only FIFTEEN minutes?! Trust me when I say that family portraits do NOT have to be long and stressful!

You’ve probably seen this family on my site before. They update their photos each year and I’m lucky enough to call them FAMILY!

Lopez : Family Session

Loved this sweet family’s session at Lake Martin so much. We had the most beautiful weather and minimal mosquitos. Hudson loved looking for ducks and skipping rocks in the swamp. Can’t get more Louisiana than that!!

Greyson : ONE Year Old

My nephew turned ONE on October 7th!

It’s hard to put into words just how special this boy is to me!! There’s just something so special about your siblings’ kids. Being Na Na to my niece and nephews has brought me more joy and love than I’ve ever felt.

G, I’ve loved you since the moment I knew you existed. I’ll cherish every froggie chest nap and sweet cuddle forever and ever. I wish you could stay little forever and at the same time can’t wait to watch you grow even more!

Guidry : Family Session

The Guidry zoo just got bigger! One of my favorite families EVER just added a little rescue pup to their crew. Welcome home, Ringo!! I am obsessed with these new family portraits in their new house!

Megan : Maternity

There’s nothing more special to me than working with a family on multiple occasions. I love getting to see families grow and especially love getting to document milestones and important moments. The Romeros have a special little place in my heart. Two years ago I got to meet sweet Charlie the day after she was born. I remember that day like it was yesterday. She was so little and squishy and now she’s about to be a big sister!

Personal : Head Shots

Just like anyone else, I can be very critical of photos of myself. I rarely get in front of the camera as I’m MUCH more comfortable BEHIND it / directing.

I’m usually taking head shots for Hunter when we travel, but this time he suggested that I get dressed and that he would take some of me. This is usually very uncomfortable for me since I can’t direct myself on how to pose or what to do. It has also made me more aware of how terrifying it is to be in front of a camera not knowing what I look like and trusting that the person taking the photos will direct me how to look and feel good.

To all of my clients : THANK YOU! Thank you for always trusting me to direct you. I want to make everyone’s session experience a GOOD one and something they can remember as being FUN and NOT scary or stressful.

Brandi : Maternity

Baby Abigail, I can’t wait to meet you and see your sweet mama love on you! The biggest blessing. You are one lucky little girl to have such amazing parents.

I photographed Brandi and Jay’s wedding a few years back and I’m so so so excited for them to start this new chapter in their lives.

Avery + Bradley : 2 Years | 1 Month

Avery Bell will be TWO in just a few weeks. I can’t even believe I just typed that! I took some 1 Month photos of Bradley and couldn’t help but sneak in a few with Avery, too!! I love these two tiny humans so much it hurts.

Arthur Joseph Sigur : Newborn

My third Sigur newborn session in four years. I just love these little boys and always feel like part of the family when I’m at their home for a session. Baby Arthur is sure to get LOADS of love from both of his big brothers. They’re the sweetest big bros and I can’t wait to watch them grow together.

Stansbury : Family Session

Having grown children makes it harder to get family portraits but I urge everyone to MAKE. IT. HAPPEN. I loved being able to do this mini session for the Stansbury family while both of their daughters were in town. We had the most beautiful backdrop shooting around their home in Sugar Mill Pond.

Amelia Rose : Newborn

Loved this sweet little Newborn Swaddle Session for Amelia Rose. She was the sleepiest little squish. Oh, and can we talk about this gorgeous head full of hair!! #hairgoals

Sapienza : Family Session

Can you believe this session was only 15 minutes?! I just added Micro Sessions to my website. These quick sessions are perfect for families of little bitties with short attention spans. So much personality in so little time. I love love love these little Sapienza babies!!

Sigur : Maternity

Never a dull moment with the ever growing Sigur crew. On july 4th, they welcomed their third sweet boy and I can’t wait to start wrangling all three boys for sessions!!

Cecilia Jones : 3/6 Months Old

Baby milestones are my favorite. Seeing little personalities develop and shine through make me so happy! I had the honor of witnessing Cecilia’s first moments of life and have documented each milestone since. She’s the cutest little sweet potato. Here are a few of my favorites from her 3 and 6 month sessions (April / July) with a special appearance by Huckleberry Jones, the goodest golden boy!

3 MONTHS

6 MONTHS

Bradley Thomas Bell : Newborn

No one told me that being an aunt would CHANGE MY LIFE. I can’t imagine my life without these sweet little babies. Here’s my newest nephew, Bradley Thomas Bell. He’s so tiny and perfect. He has the best big sister who loves him so much!! I can’t wait to see them grow together. CRYING!!

Baby Jones : Birth

01.06.2020

Still in awe over getting to witness and document the birth of sweet Cecilia Louise. It was a whirlwind of a day and I am so honored to be able to have been there! I could never put into words just how special this day was, but here are just a few photos (and a video) from my 11+ hours spent with Alyssa and Bryan on the day they delivered their baby girl.

Joubert : Family Session

Slightly obsessed with this cute little family. We shot at Lake Martin on the most BEAUTIFUL December day, the day after Noelle’s FIRST birthday! It was also Steven’s birthday. What a special day it was!!
