I just spent 30 minutes writing an entire paragraph about how much 2020 sucked and then I deleted it. The infamous year of 2020 will forever be etched in our minds as the worst year in recent history. But you know what? A lot of awesome things happened, too! I learned I was stronger than […]

“If you would have told me in the fourth grade that Tess Hardman was going to marry Wyatt Daniel, I would have told you ‘No way, we’re just buds!’” She laughed as she told us the story and then she looked at him with so much love in her eyes. Her childhood dream had come […]

It was hard to believe that the beautiful young lady standing before me was the grown up version of Cassidy that I had met almost a decade ago. Before I moved from Oregon to Oklahoma in 2012, I went to church with Cassidy and her whole family for a year or two. The same sweet, […]

What’s the best way to end a 6 week quarantine? I did what most of y’all did and got together with my friends! Months ago, we planned a headshots event for our group of photographer friends to get together and take each other’s headshots. Each time we do this I learn more about how important […]

The five months before and after we were married I worked at a hotel in Tulsa. Occasionally, I would ask the couples what their secret was to a long and happy marriage. I heard a lot of the classic pieces of advice: ‘don’t go to bed angry’ or ‘always say I love you’. Well, I […]

I asked him what he thought about me changing my business name. His response was, like always, very supportive and then a side of humor. My husband told me that if I was going to use his last name in my business then he would need a cut. I burst into laughter. As I am […]

I can’t be reading this right. I blinked my eyes a few times to see if I could get them to focus better. No, it still says what I think it does. I sat in my office not even two months ago and stared at the email in front of me. It was late, I was very tired, but that really does say what I think it says…

I love looking back through the years of life and reminiscing; there are so many precious memories that are too soon forgotten in my busy bee brain. Every year-end I create a digital scrapbook of what happened in my life… I also write a blog post that reflects on my professional year…
