Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Georgia Weddings
Hello friends, If you were referred to FLP for your wedding in Georgia, I have great news, I'M STILL AVAILABLE AND THERE IS NO TRAVEL CHARGE!
I have been a preferred vendor for The Thompson House & Gardens, 9 Oak Farms and 2425 Warehouse for almost the past 5 years. I don't plan on stopping now! I love these properties and the vendors that work there that I've gotten to know over the past several years.
While I have moved my home, my business is still in GA and growing now in IL.

My Approach
Photography is the art of capturing genuine, timeless moments infused with emotion and storytelling. I believe the most compelling images emerge from authentic connections, which is why I create an environment where my clients feel at ease, allowing their true emotions to unfold naturally. Instead of orchestrating poses, I seek the quiet glances, the joyful laughter, and the unspoken bonds that make each moment unforgettable. For me, photography is more than an image—it is a reflection of life’s fleeting beauty, preserved forever.
Every detail matters—lighting, setting, and the personal touches that make each moment extraordinary. I strive for a refined, timeless style, crafting images that will be treasured for generations. My approach goes beyond delivering beautiful photographs; I aim to create a meaningful experience, ensuring every client feels seen and celebrated. Through collaboration, I bring their vision to life while infusing my own creative artistry.
