Meg

Visionary in Craft, Detail & Timeless Stories

Hey friends, I am so thrilled you've landed here! I'd like to tell you a bit about myself: as a Christian, wife, and homesteader, I am tenderly aware of the beauty in life's everyday moments and in the creation around us, and I feel blessed daily to photograph LIFE full time! From fresh 48 babies, Weddings, Families, Seniors (and occasionally wildlife when I have free time), my approach stays the same: taking time to notice movement, light, expression, and the things that rest in the in between. I am going on year 6 of my photography journey and it's crazy to say, but I feel as though I'm just getting started!

“a dream
come true”

I cannot recommend Pure Joy Co./Megan enough! If you are looking to document any of life's milestones, she is your girl! Megan was truly a blessing on our wedding day and leading up to our wedding weekend. She met with us regularly about our wants/needs & shared so many valuable things we didn't even consider when planning our small backyard wedding. Working with Megan was a dream come true, she was always so kind and so sweet. Our photos turned out stunning & we are so grateful to her! Highly recommend Pure Joy Co. for all your photography needs. <3

“wonderful with time management”

We loved our photo session. She was very friendly, professional, and had some great ideas for photos. She was wonderful with time management during the session and very timely in getting the photos back to us. We are so pleased with the photos and plan to book another photography
session soon!

“As a mother you only want the very best”

As a mother you only want the very best for your children & when Senior year rolls around that doesn’t change! Megan helped bring to life what I’ve imagined for Kadence’s portraits for years! Combining Kadences childlike self as well as the mature young woman she’s become! I’m so very proud of both of these girls & couldn’t recommend Megan enough!!
