Ali was the first person I met in Huntsville. As a new mom to the city and someone restarting a photography business, I knew how important it was to make connections. 

We had made connections with our church family here in our new city-but Ali was the first person I met while out and about exploring with my kiddos. 

We connected immediately over my distaste for her Clemson sweatshirt. Go gamecocks. 

Despite our difference in football teams I knew Ali was a beautiful spirit right away. 

Covid hit and we weren't quite able to build a friendship the way I had hoped. 

But I feel so blessed to have this new friendship and to be able to watch her little family grow. 

When Ali and her husband came over for dinner I shamelessly asked her to throw on some clothing from my client closet and let me catch a few pictures of her and baby O at sunset. 

I'm so glad I did. 

These two are beyond gorgeous. And baby O is so lucky to have a kind and beautiful mama like Ali.
