I’m so excited to share the beautiful birthday photoshoot I had with Jennifer for her 30th birthday. It wasn’t just about capturing stunning photos. It was about celebrating everything she’s achieved and feeling thankful for the journey that brought her here. Jennifer was all about embracing gratitude, and that energy made the entire session feel so meaningful.
the styling
Jennifer wore two gorgeous dresses from MewMews Boutique, both silver, nude, and rhinestone. One had these flowing chains of rhinestones that sparkled beautifully under the dramatic lighting, while the other was simple yet stunning—both perfectly capturing her personality. The way the dresses shimmered in the light was breathtaking. And her props were so simple but meaningful. She opted for a small birthday cake from Things I Bake and white balloons. It kept everything chic and elegant, yet playful at the same time.
As we talked, Jennifer mentioned how important it was for her to take a moment to reflect on her life and everything she’s accomplished so far. I love that she’s being intentional about celebrating herself. Sometimes we get so caught up in the hustle that we forget to pause and appreciate where we are. Milestones—whether it’s a birthday, a career achievement, or just making it through another year—deserve to be celebrated.
Her best friend was there, too, and was such a big help during the shoot. And we ended up discovering that we both graduated from East Carolina University (what a small world!). It made the whole experience feel even more connected and special.
I can’t stress enough how important it is to take the time to celebrate yourself, your milestones, and your accomplishments. Life is a journey, and each step forward is worth recognizing. Whether you’re having a photoshoot or simply reflecting in your own way, take that moment to feel proud of what you’ve achieved. You deserve it!
