June was such a full month for our family, and one I’ll always look back on with gratitude.

We were lucky enough to have family come visit, and having my oldest daughter with us for several weeks has been the biggest blessing. We also got to make beach memories, and enjoy the slower moments that summer brings. Also, can NOT forget my sweet bubby and all his extra cuddles since we are home together.

This month also marked the end of my very first year of teaching. What a journey it’s been. I’m spending my summer studying for additional teaching certifications while also making my health a bigger priority.

In between all of that, I’ve had the privilege of photographing so many beautiful families along our Gulf Coast. Thank you for allowing me to capture these special moments for you. Your stories have become part of mine.

Here’s to more sunshine, birthdays, beach days, and making memories in July.
