I love first birthday shoots. Mostly because ages 6 months to 1.5 years old is my favorite time to watch these tiny humans grow. They learn so so much in this time – they walk, talk, dance, gain so much personality, interact with you constantly, learn to voice their opinions, I could go on… This […]

Toward the end of last year, and over the course of about a month, I heard the same thing from at least four different people. “You HAVE to meet Tami Faulkner; you would LOVE her.” I didn’t know Tami at the time, but clearly, I HAD to meet her. I wasn’t sure how I was […]

Sometimes I shoot from home. Especially if it’s a styled food shoot since most of my props and equipment are here at home. The other day while shooting for a client, I was finishing up and the kids hopped on to my set. They had a bowl of grapes, and the grapes plus their sweet […]

It was the perfect day for pictures…said none of us, as the day was shaping up to rain. Lowren, the beautiful pregnant momma below, and I texted back and forth about the rainy forecast and cloudy skies. We ultimately decided to chance it, and we were so happy we did.

As soon as Ellery, age 2, introduced herself, I knew this was going to be a great Table Mountain sunset session. She was outgoing, sassy, full of energy and so so sweet.

It’s crazy how busy life gets after kids. There’s school, sports, dance classes, kids’ friends, playdates, etc. And if you have friends with kids that are even slightly older or younger than yours, then you can bet that their activities and schedules are completely different from yours. All this to say, it’s really hard to […]

You know what they say about our lovely planet; it’s a small world. That sentiment gets even stronger in a small town. Living in a small town gives you plenty of opportunities to meet all sorts of people, time and time again. However, it wasn’t until a few months ago that I met the talented […]

Over the past year, I’ve consciously shifted my photography business from portrait photography over to almost all interiors photography. That’s not to say I don’t still love doing portrait sessions, it’s just not my main focus right now. But this time of year, the blossoms are insanely beautiful so I wanted to keep my schedule […]
