There are few better honors than being the person who documents someone’s life, not moments of it, but the actual evolution of it. I am thrilled to spend more times with my brides after the wedding, especially when there’s a baby bump involved!! With a sweet little boy due this fall, it was Ali & […]

There is always something really beautiful about a maternity session. Maybe it’s because I think back to that excitement, the hours spent dreaming and wondering out loud who will your baby look like, whose nose will she have, what color hair will he get, will she have hair at all, will he have your lips […]

When I first started in photography, I had no idea the people it would bring into my life. And more so the people it would bring BACK into my life. Allison(well she was Allie to me!) was one of my best friends in 6th grade. There were six of us who hung out together. I […]

So I had every intention of blogging this BEFORE he got here but I didn’t. FAIL. Now here he sits, one week old and I can give you a peek at the finished nursery. Which truth be told is not done because I still haven’t figured out how I want to hang those diapering baskets. […]
