a day in the life of the pappoe family

So, photograph them. Get out your phone and make pictures. Take silly selfies. Make videos of you being together. But also, let me do the heavy lifting once in a while. Let’s set aside a day for your family to be together, without feeling the pressure to document all of it yourself.

Live your best life together and have photos to prove it.

quick thoughts for moms

Hey momma. You work so hard. And if you’re anything like me, at the end of the day, you wonder if you did it right. I’m here to show you that you did. You do. These little moments of pause you make throughout the day, you are being present. You are soaking it in. I hope my pictures remind your future self of that.

hey momma. I know you're busy.

You’re hustling, running the kids to school, volunteering in the classroom, putting in your 8 hours of work, hauling to soccer practice, feeding the family, helping with the homework, getting your workout in, etc.

slow summer mornings

I just can’t help it. When beautiful moments happen in your life, and I’m standing right there, I feel compelled to capture it. It’s an addiction, really.

day in the life // hangin with the edwards family

I LOVE traveling, exploring a new city, getting to know new people and places. It's my jam. So, when my friends Rachel and AnDrew invited me to photograph them in their Charlotte home, I was pretty pumped.

a day in the life of mia and her girls

One of the highlights of my trip was meeting Mia and her three girls. It didn’t take long for me to completely fall in love with them.

The day began just hangin in diapers and princess dresses, playing with stuffies. The best way to start the day as far as I’m concerned.

Jamie (mom) is all about the REAL. Her facebook profile reads, "embracing imperfection on the daily."

I LOVE THAT.

a day in the life story in black and white

They inspire me to think about what's truly important in life.

Disconnecting from the hustle and bustle and just being with each other is so good for the soul. I love spending time with them and watching them raise their girls with this life-seeking way of being. It's just so beautiful.
