were crossing the busy streets of DC during Jasmine Star’s Fix Tour when I heard someone say “Katelyn?!”. I looked and saw Blythe and then I saw her necklace. Now let me explain, I love people and I’m not obsessed with material things but I AM obsessed with the Jcrew necklace she was wearing. I had been eyeing it for MONTHS and so I said hello and immediately stated the obvious “I’m OBSESSED WITH YOUR NECKLACE!!!”. Any girl that is wearing a massive TEAL statement necklace in public IS going to be my friend. No doubt about it. Blythe contacted me MONTHS ago and we started talking about their engagement
session and how she couldn’t wait to get some portraits done. I remember the feeling. When you’re just dating, there really isn’t a perfect time to get dolled up and have pictures done just because. But once you’re engaged, engagement pictures are a MUST!! …. Especially for gals like us that love photography! So we set a date to meet up and make this happen! Blythe and Joe (and Maddy!) met me at The Winery at La Grange for their shoot last week and we couldn’t have asked for a better day! The light and location were amazing and I had a blast getting to know these two. What a sweet couple!! You’ll quickly realize that Blythe has an obsession with Lilly… anything Lilly!… And I don’t blame her! There are some dresses I’d LOVE to get my hands on too!! (don’t worry Michael, I’m not ordering one anytime soon:) Her dresses are adorable and I loved the way they added such vibrant colors to their shoot!! We walked the property until the sun set behind the mountain and then we ended with a few fun shots… hey photogs out there, if you wanna make a groom happy… take pictures with his TRUCK:). Enjoy my favs!! Joe and Blythe, thanks for being awesome!!!! LOVED hanging out with you two last week!!
Welcome to a brand new installment of KJ Student Spotlight!! It’s always a good day on the blog when we get to introduce you to some of our students and share their wins and advice!!! These three students have taken courses, watched Youtube episodes, are KJ All Access members, use our templates and have invested in themselves time and time again in order to grow their businesses!

Here it is! Post one of twelve! I’m committing, once again, to blogging my favorite images each month of Everett’s first year and I’m excited about it because I know from past experience that this is truly the BEST motivation and accountability to stay on top of family editing!!
It’s hard to believe I’m writing this… my fourth birth story in four years. I’ve given birth in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. Just typing that makes me tired….. and so grateful…. unbelievably grateful. These last four years have been the best and hardest of my life. We cherish being parents and welcoming a new baby is hands down the most incredible thing we have ever experienced in our 18 years together. I’m so excited to introduce you to our newest member of our family and tell you the story of how he came into this world!
Whether you’re brand new to business or have been in business for quite a while, this brand new Youtube video is for you! Michael and I, early on in our business, struggled to relinquish tasks to other professionals outside of our business. Really…. It was more of MY STRUGGLE than his.
Welcome to December’s Student Spotlight!! It’s a new month and we have new photographers to celebrate!! I’m so thankful for them and for their willingness to give of their time and share their stories!!!
This shoot was supposed to happen about a month earlier on the exact day that leftover rains from a hurricane swept through Washington. I’m so thankful we rescheduled! Our reschedule date was absolute perfection! The temperature, the glow, the locations…. it was beautiful! Tyler and Abby’s outfit choices were wonderful and the leaves were full of color and still hanging on the trees.
