You know love when you see it and I can honestly say, Hutch and Helena have that all consuming, long lasting, amazing L-O-V-E.  From the way Hutch gently guides Helena to the next location; aware that she is in heels on grass, to opening her car door for her on the way out.  It was […]

When writing that title, my gut is in knots as I am 50/50 on the subject.  Personally, when Nick and I got married, we chose not to do a first look.  We both had a very traditional mindset on our wedding day where we refused to see each other before I walked down the isle.  […]

With all the details a bride has to plan before their wedding day, it is easy to get overwhelmed.  Each detail is so important and when you add them all together, you are creating your dream wedding.  Choosing a color scheme, the style, the cake, the dresses, the invitations, the photographer, DJ, coordinator, etc.  It’s […]

This month our baby boy turns 1!!!  I can’t believe it.  The year has gone by WAY too fast.  There are times where I feel so guilty and I feel like I missed out on his sweet little life.  Aria takes up a lot of our time and when I compare the two experiences, Aria’s […]

Reaching […]

This summer we had a delayed heat wave, which I will forever be grateful for.  But the heat is finally here and we are finding ways to keep the kiddos busy while trying to stay cool and (preferably) in the shade. Our favorite thing to do together is go to the pool.  Aria is a […]

The biggest question I get when booking a family session is, “What should we wear?”  Over the next few months, I plan to dive into styling for sessions in more detail as I know this is a great concern for folks who are about to be photographed.  Today I am going to start at the […]

In life you meet people that you just KNOW deep down are good people.  This was the case with a fellow photographer, Rebecca Hicks, who reached out to me about a month ago to help her photograph her brother’s wedding.  She was a bridesmaid AND the main photographer for the day and really needed help […]

I have been photographing this sweet family since Lane was 2 weeks old.  He is the cutest pumpkin ever!  I just love every little bit of him.  His sweet rolls, shy little smile and calm demeanor are just the BEST!  When I get an opportunity to get him in front of my lens for his […]
