I love babies with chubby cheeks.  And older sisters who are thrilled to be the big helper.  Emma and Landon were just that.  A perfect, helpful older sister thrilled to have a little chubby cheeked brother.  Their session was the very first one in the morning, so it was a bit brisk. . . but […]

I guess the true countdown to our move has begun.  But I actually don’t know what I’m counting down to, because we don’t really have a move date set in stone.  We sort of have two weeks to get things from one house to the next.  But we need a moving truck.  We just haven’t […]

If I was going to base the number of smiles I would be getting from Anthony’s session on how the first fifteen minutes of our hour went, I would count on getting zero.  But never fear!  My silly faces and make a fool of myself technique must have worked.  But he was one tough cookie […]

My blog is going to be filled with little snippets of my mini-sessions for the next month.  Fair warning! I first met this family back in August, for Sofia’s one year session.   She had this adorable little personality and did nothing but SMILE the entire session.  I was looking forward to seeing her and […]

I am like a little child at Christmas already.  I said I was going to wait to post these pictures until I sent out my Christmas cards, but who on earth can wait that long?  I took them last week, and it would be near torture for me to wait another two weeks to post […]

I never want to life a day without being grateful for the gifts that God has given.  It was His plan for my life to be a photographer at this moment. . . maybe not in five years.  Or in ten years.  But right now, in this moment, I have an awesome privilege that I […]

It was about 9:30 when I remembered that I hadn’t taken out my camera yet.  Coffe, Craft and Conversation: November Edition was well underway and some of our I must go to bed before 10 pm friends had already left.  I feel bad that we didn’t get everyone into the group picture.  But there’s always […]

I had so many incredibly awesome clients for my fall sessions this year.  I love that so many people were getting into the sessions, really putting thought into outfits and details. This little family did a great job.  We were doing a session for Paige, the cute little one year old in the photos. . […]

Someone called me this morning who I’ve never hung out with before.  She asked if I wanted to go to the zoo.  We know their family from church–it was refreshing to hang out with someone new.  She was very sweet, and our kids got along great.  Brayden already knew Olivia from Sunday school.  Carter on […]

Shooting this session was incredible.  It was like a little bit of Christmas in October, and I loved it.  I love when I have never seen the children that I will be photographing before and then they all spill out of the van looking like they are straight from a magazine.  Their momma did a […]
