Over Labor Day weekend I flew out to see my sister and her husband who live just outside Denver in Aurora! While I am a salty soul through and through, it was nice to see land that wasn’t so…..flat 😉 My dad flew out too and while we were planning on surprising her, we nearly […]

This session is so sweet and close to my heart because I have known sweet Gracelyn (and her awesome parents!) since she was days old! I did her newborn photos when I was first getting started and although I don’t do newborns anymore except for friends and family, I am honored they ask me back […]

Kim, Chris and Alyssa plus ONE

It’s hard to look at these pictures and know it was FREEZING cold during this shoot. The wind was so not on our side, but the Chappell’s were troopers! Maybe because of the secret they were getting ready to spring on Alyssa! As we were finishing up our shoot, Chris’s mom rode by! He had […]

Dear finally-not-a-newlywed you, Isn’t your husband the best?! He went above and beyond for your first anniversary.

Wow, wait until you talk to your 5-years- married-momma-to-two-boys-and- owned-a-business-for-over-a-year-self. You will now know how to take […]

Megan & Jason \ Married!

She was nervous and asked if he was ready. No reason to be nervous, they were already married. But this day was the day he’d see her in a white dress and say he would in front of her mom, dad, and her sister. This day she would say me too in front of his […]

The Mosbarger’s

As photographers we start to really favor places to shoot, East Beach is no exception for me! It is gorgeous, calm, relatively empty, and provides that perfect East Coast dune grass look I love! Not to mention, the whole neighborhood is so idyllic so I absolutely love when I get to introduce the area to […]
