 MEET YOUR NEW HYPE GIRL!

My whole mission behind the camera is to take the wedding day stress off my clients. Worried about posing? I handle staged and candid moments with ease. I want to give you the wow factor on your wedding day!

 I've been behind the camera for almost 10 years and my passion for learning has never wavered

I am constantly educating myself on the latest techniques, posing tricks, and editing magic to make your photos stand out from the crowd.

I keep it so real on wedding day. I'm not afraid to be loud when you need the family rounded up for formals. I'm eager to listen to your needs if too many people are pulling you different directions​.

​

I keep things moving and light-hearted throughout the day! I specialize in flattering poses for al body types. You can call me the double chin hiding queen! I make sure that you are looking your best at all times!

My faith is central to everything I do. It has kept me grounded through every storm and keeps me to walking in integrity to serve you better!

Just ask me about my
Jesus and I will jump at the opportunity to share!  


 

My other interests include: Horseback riding, home decor, dog training, hiking, and board games!

The Kids

​​How lucky is this mama? My husband and I have three beautiful children to call our own and we couldn't be more proud!

Fletcher (10) - Loves reading. He is constantly asking for more books! He's the most intelligent kid I know; currently obsessed with weather, Pokêmon cards, and baseball.

 

Evelynn (8) - Is your classic girly girl. She loves dressing up, playing with Barbies, and singing! She's currently discovered Karaoke and there's no going back. Everything is a sing-a-long. She loves reading and playing games!

Silas (3) - The baby of the family and boy does he know it! He's obsessed with his big siblings and copies everything they do! He loves snuggles and all things Bluey! I've never met or more tender hearted tot in all my life. Everybody is SiSi's best friend!  

I have always known I would homeschool my children and it's the greatest honor and challenge of my life! Owning my own business has allowed the flexibility needed to accomplish that goal.

We live in an 1800's farmhouse with lots room on our 4 acres for the kids to run and play. Small town living has always been our stride and I couldn't be more blessed to watch these kids grow!

These babies are the reason for everything I do! Andrew and I both came from big families and we love babies; they are such a gift from God! 
 

The Man

I married this bearded hunk of a man back in 2013 and I'm proud to carry the title of Mrs. Andrew Thompson. To say I'm obsessed with him is an understatement. He was my first boyfriend, first kiss, and my first and last love! Andrew is my rock. He goes above and behind the call of duty each and every day! I decided to be a stay at home mom back in 2014 when Fletcher was born and we lived completely off his modest custodian salary. I struggled with guilt when I shared that I wanted to spend almost $800 on a fancy DSLR camera to start a "lil photography business"...he didn't bat an eye. "Go for it babe, I know you'll be great!" 

Almost 10 years later I've built a six figure business from that decision and I owe so much of that to Andrew. He has always believed in me and spurred me on to greatness. We've had seasons of him playing Mr. Mom and staying home for an entire year as I worked and built my studio. He's sacrificed so much for our family and has absolutely NO IDEA how much of a catch he is.

He's currently pursuing his own dreams in graphic design and I'm so excited to take my turn in a supporting role as he builds his own career.

Marriage is hard work; but with the Lord's help it can be truly something worthwhile and precious. Love you Andrew; now and always!
