Not to get too cliche on you, but seriously, once you have a baby, time really does stand still and fly by all at the same time. I truly didn’t understand this until I was in the thick of motherhood. Sometimes it can feel like you’ve been trying to get your kid to nap for […]

Why do baby photos now? In the photography world, there’s a lot of emphasis placed on newborn photos. Yes, I LOVE newborn photos, as do many of my clients, but there are so many opportunities for photos within that first year of baby’s life. Newborn photos are amazing for showing how small and new your new […]

It’s a special challenge to win over people who say they don’t like having their photo taken. I’m determined to prove that it doesn’t have to be painful, boring or full of fake smiles. No, no, no. I never ask anyone during a newborn or family session to look into my lens and smile or to sit […]

It’s time again for another entry in the Storytellers blog circle! If you missed last month, you can catch up here. I usually have such a hard time narrowing down images for a blog post, but as soon as I set up this image, I knew instantly it was going to be the image for this […]

It’s a dream becoming a reality.” Those are the words that came into my email from Chelsey when she contacted me about a breastfeeding photo session. I knew immediately this was going to be a pretty amazing […]

It was 7:00 am on a rainy July morning. It was just her, me, and the pregnant lady chatting on her cell phone on the other side of a very thin, wrinkly curtain hanging from the ceiling. Over the last 2 hours my life had changed and this new life, full of so many unknowns, was ushered in. […]

This was one of the last frames I shot at a recent newborn photo session. It was a spur of the moment image – I’d asked Mom if she’d be ok taking baby’s shirt off so I could get a few detail shots of her tiny belly button. It was a total in-between moment which became […]

I’d like you to meet the brand new Storybook Album. This is it! This is what I’ve been hunting for, and I’m over the moon to introduce it as part of my product line. If you’ve had a session with me then I’m sure you have heard me say that I don’t offer albums because I […]

It’s our crazy hour. Our witching hour. The hour that sometimes makes me want to just curl up and wish it was over. It’s 5:00 pm I can actually remember not so many years ago when 5 pm meant relaxing after work watching Oprah…maybe thinking about what to make for dinner…maybe not. Sometimes I’d go […]
