Meet Sarah

Hi! My name is Sarah. I grew up a couple of hours away from the Smokies in a small town of Jonesborough. I took many vacations and weekend trips to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg growing up. When I met my husband, he found a job that took us to Sevierville. I never dreamed of living here but started to love that there was so much to do. My husband and I were married for 10 years before we had kids. We had so much fun traveling and doing things.

I have always had a love of photography and wanted to start a photography business. During those 10+ years with no kids I grew my business by photographing lots of families from out of town, I did so many cabin weddings, marriage proposals and family reunions all over the Smokies.

I had a photography website and blog that I used for my business to grow. I became very busy and booked up

2018 I had my daughter Kristyn and 2021 I had my son Karsen. When I became a mom of 2 kids, my whole world changed. I became less and less interested in photography and started to slowly put it to the side. I wanted to be more present with my kids and be home with them.

I have had the idea of starting a Smoky Mountain Blog before my daughter was even born. I feel like God put the desire in my heart but kids, life and work got in the way. The idea kept coming to me year after year and month after month so I got all my ideas and plans together but had no idea where to start or what to do.

God has really helped me through this journey and I am so excited to share some of my ideas with you!
