Just Because Love

Such a special day capturing Camilla (whose senior photo session feels like a literal lifetime ago!) and her love, Andrew. Instead of letting the rain intimidate us, we found a last-minute change of scenery for this “just because” couples session and relocated to one of our favorites: Wegerzyn Gardens. We […]

Savoring Summer

When summer is coming to a close, you have to savor every last moment. It’s not always easy – there are obligations, distractions, and even obstacles that can get in the way. But you hold on tight – you make it work! You grab every possible moment together and you […]

Glowing Coach

A client like Cherise is the reason I love taking headshots. It’s practically impossible to take a bad photo of this glowing human who pours warmth and spirit from every angle. As she continues her journey as a servant leader and coach, I wish her all the support and acknowledgement […]

Sparkling Senior

Sorrynotsorry I had such a hard time narrowing down photos from this gorgeous senior session. Eileen is a sparkling gem with a natural presence on camera. She is fun, kind, and spontaneous! And let me tell you: she comes by it naturally, as you’ll see by the family pics that […]

Fall Traditions

Traditions are best with family, and the fall is full of traditions! My favorite tradition with this family is getting silly in the crispy leaves and savoring the chilly autumn weather. Oh, plus cat-themed outfits. That’s a tradition, too, I guess! It’s my third year with the super fun Kelleys, […]

The Fun Never Changes

Some of the ways I’m sure it’s officially fall are when I need to bundle up in the morning just to walk outside, I can see the beautiful colors of a sunrise in the leaves of the trees, and – last but not least – when I hear from one […]

A Toast to Good Timing

When the time is right, it’s right. And nothing – not rain, and not even a global pandemic – can change that.

The time was right for Brenda and Mike this weekend, as they stood in their cozy living room, surrounded by the love of friends and family (virtually, of course!) to say their vows and exchange rings.

Sunny at a Distance

This was my first photoshoot wearing a mask and keeping a 6′ distance from my subject. It was weird! Usually if I see a hair out of place or a shirt bunching up weird, I just fix it and keep going. But not this time! I was determined to maintain […]

TEDxYouth @ Dayton, 2020

This is one of my favorite events of the year! TED is such a cool organization, and I especially love how the TEDxYouth offshoot has grown to further amplify the voices of young people all over the world. TEDxYD (TEDxYouth@Dayton) is in its fifth year (hence this year’s theme “Take […]
