WEEKLY ROUNDUPS: JULY ARCHIVES
July 28, 2023
Hi friend!
I hope you all have been embracing the warm sunshine this week! Our days have been filled with activities outside, our chickens started laying their first eggs, we’ve been blackberry picking non-stop on our property, and I’ve been prepping for my summer mini sessions coming up this weekend! As I delve into the July archives, I’m reminded how blessed I am to capture laughter-filled family sessions and beautiful celebrations as man & wife become one. As we welcome August, here in a few days, I am filled with anticipation as my sweet baby turns one. How has this time passed by so quick? As the pages turn from July to August, I am excited to blend my creativity and film, creating lasting memories for all those who allow me to be a part of their journey.

3. A tip before your Family Session!
One invaluable tip I've discovered during my years as a family photographer is the power of capturing genuine moments during a family session. Rather than focusing solely on posed shots, I encourage mom & dad to embrace the beauty of candid interactions with their children. These moments often result in the most heartwarming and authentic photographs. Whether it's a mother gently cradling her baby or dad giggling with his toddler, these unscripted moments truly showcase the family bond. So, during your next family photoshoot, let go of perfection and allow the magic of unposed moments unfold naturally. You'll be amazed at the emotions and love that will shine through in each of your photographs!
4. Go-to Recipe this week!
Georgia has been loving picking blackberries in our backyard lately, and I knew I needed to incorporate them into my next summertime recipe! I am all about creating simple, healthy recipes! This refreshing lemonade will leave you craving for more - you are going to die when you taste these juicy blackberries and sour lemons combined! This Blackberry mint lemonade is perfect to enjoy on a hot summer day! Hope you enjoy!
5. Miranda’s Picks!
I can't help but gush over my love for this white maxi dress! It has quickly become my go-to outfit for summer. Whether I'm heading to a daytime picnic, a sunset dinner, or simply doing chores around my house, this dress can be dressed up or down to match any occasion.
