I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

MR. RELTON + MRS. KAREN | A BOLD AND SPICY SEASONED LOVE SESSION

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said multiple times: Being around seasoned women just does something to my soul. Sitting at their feet…listening to their stories…absorbing their wisdom…I honestly can’t get enough of it. But being around seasoned couples? Couples like the Hyltons? Y’all…that ELEVATES. MY. ENTIRE. LIFE. These adorable lovebirds are my friend Felicia‘s parents. […]

PHOTOGRAPHING WOMEN OVER 50

I’ve always felt as if I’ve had an old soul. I can’t quite tell you why, but there has always been something about the “good ol’ days” that I’ve felt connected to. For that reason, I’ve always been drawn to older women. I love their stories, their grace…their confidence. I admire the peace they have… the […]
