Winter Overlook Park Engagement Session

Dec 13, 2023

When I got home I checked my phone and saw a message from one of my brides. I had just gotten home from one of the coldest engagement sessions I have done in my career. The couple absolutely crushed it and didn’t let the cold affect them one bit. Even though inside I am sure […]

Fall Foliage Engagement Session

Nov 15, 2023

“I’m hesitant.” This is not a normal text I send out, but for Courtney and Trevor’s fall foliage engagement session, it is one that I did. As we were past noon on their session date, the skies slowly turned to dark. It seemed as though a rainy afternoon was rolling in. The skies showed it. […]

Fall Engagement Session at Overlook Park

Oct 12, 2023

Imagine your favorite romantic movie. The couple is holding hands walking through the streets. The biggest smiles on their faces. Madly in love. They just so happen to come across a musician serenading those that walked by. The couple stops for a slow dance together, sharing a kiss at the end, before continuing their walk. […]

Floral Senior Session at Overlook Park

Aug 16, 2023

The calendar flips to August. Only a few weeks left before summer comes to an end, and you find yourself back in the classroom sitting at a desk. How do you fill your remaining days? Most about-to-be seniors fill it poolside or squeezing in one final vacation. Others are counting down the days for their […]

Patriotic Spring Spokesmodel Team Shoot

Apr 26, 2023

As I edited the photos from this Patriotic Spring Spokesmodel Team Shoot, one set of lyrics continued to play in my mind. “This is what dreams are made of!” Each year with the HMP Senior Spokesmodel Team, we do 2-3 themed team shoots. I love the ability to have a little fun and be creative […]

Best of 2022 Engagement Sessions

Jan 11, 2023

Engagement sessions are a very important piece to the HMP experience. So much so that they are complimentary in any package that a couple would select. We consider them that valuable! First off, they allow the HMP Team to get to know our couples. Being more than just the photographer on their wedding day is […]
