We had never gone camping in any way, shape, or form before we decided that we wanted to travel full-time in an RV. Not even in a tent. So we were as green as green could get when we pulled into our very first campground in Desert Hot Springs, CA, about 2.5 hours from myContinue reading “Our Very First Time Camping”

We Bought a Toy Hauler!
When we first decided to sell our house and travel the country full-time with our kids in an RV, we didn’t have any idea which type of RV we wanted. When you will be traveling with kids, your options are a little more limited, especially if you want your kids to have their own roomContinue reading “We Bought a Toy Hauler!”
Hi! We’re the McVey Family!
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by! I figured I’d make our first post on our brand new website an introduction to our family. There are 4 of us: Steve, Joanna (Jo), Grayson, and Oliver. Steve and I met in 3rd grade, but didn’t start dating until our early 20s. We were both born and raisedContinue reading “Hi! We’re the McVey Family!”

Princess Edit – Using Greater Than Gatsby Actions
I’ve lost count of how many messages I’ve received asking for mentoring, tutorials, or editing videos, so I decided to record one to show you how I use Greater Than Gatsby actions in my editing workflow.

Sweet Baby Boy {Jackson} | Nashville Newborn Photographer
This newborn session was a special one for me. I’ve known baby Jackson’s parents since they were dating, and I was actually 39 weeks pregnant with my firstborn when I attended their wedding almost five years ago. I’ll be honest, I tried to dance myself into labor that night. It didn’t work. Haha! You mayContinue reading “Sweet Baby Boy {Jackson} | Nashville Newborn Photographer”
Pastor Family Session – The Gallatys {Nashville Portrait Photographer}
This past fall, I had the honor of taking family portraits for our pastor and his family. He followed the Lord’s call to our church in October of 2015, about ten months after our beloved former pastor tragically passed away from a rare cancer. Pastor Robby and his family have been such a blessing toContinue reading “Pastor Family Session – The Gallatys {Nashville Portrait Photographer}”
