Hey Ya'll!
I'm also a proud Army veteran wife, mom of 2 + Believer. I love getting to provide the ultimate experience to each of my clients & photos that capture who they are! Read my story
When I think about senior year, I think about fun and celebrating your story — and Brooklyn brought all of that and more to her senior session.
This incredible girl is graduating from Round Rock Christian Academy and heading to Baylor University this fall (Sic ‘Em Bears! 🐻). But there’s so much more to her journey that deserves to be celebrated.
Brooklyn lives with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD2A) — a rare genetic condition that affects about 1 in 100,000 people. And instead of letting that define her, she’s turned it into her mission. She’s an advocate, a speaker, and a light to so many others across the country who are walking similar journeys.
Brooklyn’s strength isn’t just inspiring — it’s unstoppable.
For Brooklyn’s senior session, we wanted to highlight everything that makes her shine:
💛 Her bold spirit
💛 Her beautiful heart
💛 And her unstoppable advocacy journey
We explored a mix of stunning natural light locations around Liberty Hill, from airy fields to local architecture. Brooklyn’s warm smile and soft strength made every single shot pure magic!
Brooklyn and her cheering squad – featuring her mom, aunt & grandmother – radiated positivity and hope, and her session was one of those where you walk away feeling so lucky to get to meet and work with people like them!
Most seniors are busy planning their grad parties and prepping for college (and Brooklyn is too!), but she’s also spent her high school years traveling across the country speaking about LGMD2A — raising awareness, advocating for research, and sharing her story to help others feel known in the rare disease community.
She’s proof that even when life hands you hard things, you can still live with hope and purpose.
Brooklyn’s passion for advocacy is just getting started, and I can’t wait to see what she does next as a Baylor Bear. The world better get ready. 💥
If you’re reading this and thinking, I want senior photos that feel real, this is your sign.
Senior sessions should be more than just cute outfits and good lighting (even though we LOVE those too!). They should celebrate who you are — your story, your strength, your next chapter.

And if you’re a mama reading this… your heart is probably already swelling just imagining seeing your girl captured in all her beautiful, authentic self. (Tissues highly recommended! 🥹)
