Hensley Family Story
I am a mom to two energetic boys, wife to Superman, and a stay-at-home-mom who believes in following passion where it leads you. I have traveled all over the country and lived in many places, but I am happy to have settled 20 minutes from where I grew up. My family is originally from Pennsylvania; however, I have lived in Texas since I was 5 and consider myself an adopted Texan (here by choice if not by birth, as proved by my consumption of Dr. Pepper and Shiner Bock). I am a classically trained singer/actress with degrees in music and business from Oklahoma City University. I love cooking, board games, and wine (not necessarily in that order). I no longer sing onstage but you can hear me belting out my favorite show tunes during road trips or long showers.

entry description
This family is one of the most loving and generous families I have ever met. Maggie and Scott had their first child when they themselves were very young. They have gone on to have 3 biological children and are fostering 2 additional sons, which will soon be legally adopted by this incredible family. Maggie and Scott, despite their youth, have both gone on to graduate college, pursue their careers, and find success in both personal and professional lives. This photo perfectly represents their family.about the photographer
I have always enjoyed photography, but it wasn't until my first pregnancy that I discovered a true passion for it. Like so many moms, my son was my inspiration. I wanted to capture every precious moment. My camera soon became my lifeline, as it gave me an identity outside of "wife & mother". I struggled with postpartum depression and photography became a source of healing for me. Creating a business sharing my love of memory making with other families seemed a natural next step. I have been lucky to mentor with some of the best local professional photographers and businesswomen, as well as attend conferences and trade shows where I hone my skills. My healing hobby has become an exciting and fulfilling career.I am a mom to two energetic boys, wife to Superman, and a stay-at-home-mom who believes in following passion where it leads you.
