Happy Thanksgiving friends
There aren’t enough words to express how thankful i am for all of my past, present, and future clients. Getting to do something I love, while simultaneously getting to help provide for my little fam is more than I could have asked for.
I hope everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving! 🫶🏼

Love Notes

Hiring Schaelynne might have been the best decision we could have made for our wedding. The amount of positive feedback we have gotten on our photos is insane, Schaelynne truly is a natural when it comes to photography!We couldn't be happier with how fun she made the day and for all of the organic moments she captured throughout our wedding night. We are obsessed with our wedding photos, she captured the day so perfectly and for that we are forever grateful.
