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 […]

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 Good Excuse

It’s like an actual crime of the universe that this group has never gotten family photos taken before. A crime! Well, better late than never as kid #1 is headed to college next year (!) and all 3 teenagers actually seem to genuinely enjoy each other’s company in the meantime. […]

Changing Leaves

I love this little family, and I was so excited to return to one of my favorite session locations with them this year – the Narrows Nature Reserve. This spot is full of winding trails, dramatic staircases, and big climbing rocks. In other words: perfect for a kindergartener and her […]

I can’t get over the remarkable beauty (both outside and inside) of this remarkable family. From the moment I stepped into this stunning home (and onto this breathtaking back porch – can you even!?) I felt like THEY were the ones putting ME at ease. They had such a laid-back […]

Go Your Own Way

This may be one of my favorite sessions (so far) of 2019. You know it’s going to be a good session when the request starts with “I want some photos of me and my dog,” the dog in question is a gorgeous pooch that radiates magic like the queen she […]

Handfuls of Love

When this beautiful mom contacted me about a family shoot with her 2 little boys, she prepared me that I would be in for a “handful.” I never know how seriously to take this type of warning! Should I be worried? Should I blow it off? In the end, I […]

Little Owl

It’s an honor to be asked to document the welcoming of a new human into the world, and it’s a joy to do it with a family like this! Though sleepy at first, the little guy soon opened up those big dark eyes and perfectly fit his little owl onesie […]
