It’s Launch Day! • Business Spotlight: Poppie Studios Designs

Welcome to day one of the week of giveaways in promoting this newly designed website. If you’re reading this, welcome! I’ve worked on this labor of love with Emily of Poppie Studios Designs for several months as she has patiently waited for me through the busy holiday season and a family move.

In my early days of mothering, I remember being at Winthrop Park with my girls and meeting with other moms. It’s such a dance, you know. The new way you friend mothers when you may feel like you’ve been living on an island of your own.  I remember meeting one mom at the park who handed me the cutest little calling card before she left. Being a lover of all things classic, the idea of this calling card stuck with me and I went home and took to Vista Print to make some of my own. They weren’t so cute but they did the job.

Enter Emily with Poppie Studios Designs.

There are certain places that just make everything easier.

The light falls right. The space feels calm. The family relaxes without even realizing it. 

I have been thinking a lot lately about the locations I keep coming back to, and what it is about them that works. Some are outdoors with gorgeous natural canopy and soft, open light. Some are quieter, more tucked away. Some I discovered by accident and now I wouldn't trade them.

What they all have in common is this: they feel true to the families I photograph here in Tallahassee and the surrounding area. Unhurried. Warm. Real. Give me all the "old Florida" vibes.

Swipe through to see a few of my favorites right now. Do you have a favorite spot around Tallahassee, or somewhere nearby that means something to your family? I would genuinely love to hear it - drop it in the comments or send me a message. I am always looking to grow this list.

Seen here are Goodwood Museum and Gardens, St. Theresa, Summer Camp Beach, Park Avenue Chain of Parks, and Dorothy B. Oven Park.
That’s not a filter. That’s the finish.

Editing isn’t about fixing something that went wrong, it’s the last step in creating the image. The light, the color, the feeling. It all comes together in the edit.

Raw files are a little like unfinished film negatives. They’re where we start, not where we land. What you receive is the image as it was always meant to look.

This is the part of the work I genuinely love. And it shows up in every single image I deliver.
