The truth is that I’ve started this post about 25 times over the past few days. I’ve stared at the blinking curser wondering where the heck to start. I know how annoying yearly recaps can become –  how wonderful things were for so-and-so, and how thankful they are, and how they are living their dream. And […]

Sometime in late 2015 I became a lady obsessed with podcasts. I listen to them while I workout, while I edit, and sometimes while my husband is working nights, when I attempt to fall asleep but can’t stop listening to every creak and drip in the house.

“The littlest of details of our most regular day.”  That was the answer to the question I ask every single client. If you could only have one image from your photo session what would it be? In this one question I can figure out the whole tone of a session. It gives me something to […]

Behind every image there are hundreds of decisions. Even when I’m caught off guard and take a really quick snap, there’s still usually a decision behind settings or composition.
