The year was 2012. I’d just escaped the house after my 7 month old daughter had gone to sleep for the night (laughable – she was probably asleep for 45 min as she never slept!). I drove to Wal-mart and decided it was time to buy a real camera. Real as in it wasn’t a […]

Just laying it all out there…. Literally! Emptying my whole camera bag for the world to see and attempting to make it look pretty. 🙈 Want to know how to make me freak out? Ask me to be on a really big photography blog (scary!), then ask me to pick a few images to be […]

Lights. Camera. Make it perfect and capture the holiday magic. The pressssssssure! 😬 Know what we have more than enough of as moms? P-R-E-S-S-U-R-E. And know when that pressure gets to the point that the lid of your Instant Pot is going to blow off and put a hole in your ceiling? The holidays. Not […]

When you’re pregnant, well-meaning people tell you a million random pieces of advice. Right? Sleep when baby sleeps (totally useless advice for me). Shower and get dressed to feel better (meh, decent). Stick to a schedule at all costs. Don’t worry about a schedule. Have a flexible schedule. Go with the flow. Be rigid and […]

It was the last week of June 2011 and I was approximately 8 million weeks pregnant. (Or 37 weeks…but, I swear her head felt like a 10 lb bowling ball that was seconds away from dropping out of my body, so it felt like 8 million weeks.). It was a sweltering day and I’d been sitting in my […]

Tell me if you’ve been in this situation….. The moment is amazing. Your kid is being CUTE AF. You must take a photo of this. You run and grab your phone. Your think….this is going to go viral on Instagram. Watch me become F-A-M-O-U-S. You line everything up. You tap the shutter. You look at […]

Before I started my photography journey I had no idea about the roller coaster that is the creative process. I find with client work I’m generally inspired as I’m in different homes with different light and I can always find new angles and framing options. But my own house? My own kids? A totally different […]

It’s an incredible honour to be named by ClickPro as one of the 100 female photographers to watch in 2020 (in the world….yikes!!). The best part of this accomplishment is that nominations for this list are made by industry peers, which means the best of the best put my name forward. Annnnnnd, nominations are made […]

“How long will it take you to edit this?” It’s a pretty common question that I get, but….the answer isn’t an easy one. It isn’t easy because every session really is different, but also because, if we’re talking about what goes into a session, it’s so much more than editing. So! I thought it might […]

If there’s one thing that I am firmly against in life, it’s saying “CHEESE”. 9 times out 10, cheese results in unnatural, forced smiles and just general silliness that isn’t what I’m after. So, what’s a mama to do, then? When you really want a photo of your kid but you’re getting that weird-serial-stalker face […]
