Worth Every Drop of Sweat

From the archives — originally posted September 03, 2026

I really have to get to bed, but I absolutely cannot even think about doing that until I post at least one picture from that evening! ❤️

That evening was AMAZING! We were all absolutely melting—it was SO hot—but it was worth every second and every drop of sweat!

Not only did I get to meet this adorable little man, Liam, but I also got to reconnect with this amazing young lady, Maddie, who I haven't gotten to see in a few years. And oh my goodness, it made me SO happy to see her again! I love this girl so much, and I am so incredibly happy for her and the beautiful life she has created for herself. ❤️

Her husband, Luke, couldn't be more handsome or sweeter. It was such a pleasure getting to spend the evening with the three of them and photograph their adorable little family. I absolutely loved getting to see Maddie again and getting to meet the fellas who have clearly stolen her heart.

I cannot WAIT to share more of Maddie, Luke and Liam, and I promise there will be plenty more coming soon!

But for tonight, I'm starting with this beautiful, beautiful, beautiful mama and the cutest little man ever. 😍

Just look at these two. ❤️
