The cold temps we’ve been feeling in Alabama this week have me reminiscing on Brooke and Jackson’s engagement session shot in Huntsville this summer!

Sweet Kennedy! I just loved getting to know her throughout her senior year, and am obsessed with her senior portraits. Kennedy was a member of my class of 2023 senior spokesmodel team, so she got in front of my camera several times throughout the year! Out of all of our photoshoots though, her individual senior […]
