These two families, which were part of a larger extended shoot with lots more adorable grandchildren, are the best! I’ve known them all my life, and just look at how well these five cutie pies did!?  I know family photos can be stressful.  I get it. I have two boys.  Kudos to these parents who […]

Every family that I have the honor to photograph leaves a little mark on my heart.  For me, photography is a way to preserve the legacy of life.  We all have a short time here, and one day all that is left are our beautiful memories.  So this family, more than any other last year, […]

Christmas season is the perfect time to take a little glance back from this past year’s family photo sessions to look at one of my favorite captures – mother and child. Let’s be honest, being a mom is really hard. None of use ever feel completely successful. It’s exhausting (among other things). Most of us […]

This amazing family of six came to me as part of a large extended family photo shoot.  (A family I’ve loved + adored my whole life).  And so they had such a HUGE gallery, that I decided to break it up by family.  So first up… the lovely B. Family along with their four gorgeous […]

Meet sweet little Kate.  At only one week old, she is already stunning with those big beautiful eyes and dark brown hair.  I adore here and couldn’t imagine a sweeter newborn to photograph. And I may have been just lucky enough to get a few cuddles while I was there.  And have I mentioned she […]

You won’t get the best shots first. You would think the best shots come first, early in the process when the […]

What to wear is probably the most common question I am asked before a photo shoot. Don’t get me wrong, wardrobe choices are really important, but try not to overly stress. I’ve got you covered! Below are some tips I’ve accumulated not only as a photographer, but also as a mom to two unruly, messy […]

Oh Owen.  Sweet little Owen.  He just finished his summer backyard shoot like a champ!  Now there happens to be a whole second half of this session due to a new family addition, but in the meantime, I’m going to show you him.  All him.  Because the first kid deserves a bit of the spotlight […]

  With every photo shoot, I always have three main goals: To capture real, honest moments of love and connection To capture shining personalities, twinkling eyes, and unique characteristics of each + every individual And to do so in such a beautiful way, that you’ll want to hang these memories all over your house.   To […]
