Selecting Wall Displays
Several clients have asked me how I select images to put on my walls. And it really is a hard process for a lot of people. Do you select landscape/travel images? Do you choose heirloom family B&Ws? Do you create a family wall? It really is personal preference and depends on the look of your […]
Senior Brand
High School seniors lately have so much more personality than I did when I graduated. I guess this is par for the course, but I say this every year. I thought I was the sh*t back then. And now I think back and I hadn’t done anything really. The seniors graduating now have most of […]
Cake Smash Alternatives
Cake smashes… Did you know that they don’t have to be cake? Some of my client’s kiddos have allergies, so we have been doing out of the box sessions. Here are some of the fun ideas I have done: Ice cream, donuts, tacos, yogurt (pictured), cookies, carrot cake, fruits, colored whip cream, and veggie cakes. […]
Making Beautiful Music
When you meet new clients and they are just as cute as a button. They literally make beautiful music together.

Simplicity
Sometimes simplicity is the key. I had the pleasure of meeting this handsome little one this morning. And little he is. He is on his way to being big, but for now, he didn’t fit into much other than my wraps. But he did want to stay awake for about half of his session. So […]

What is a session like with Kara
Don’t take my word for it… “What is it like to do a session with Kara? Well first of all she always provides many ideas and options for location. She always sends reminders so that there is no confusion on times and locations. She even sends wardrobe ideas for the session. She is always punctual […]
Happy Mother’s Day
Mother’s day has come and gone. Did you get something special? Every year on Mother’s day I remember the special gift I received 13 years ago. The reproductive specialist called and told us we were expecting. What an amazing Mother’s day gift. Now he is 12 and all boy. What is the best Mother’s day […]
Colors or Neutrals
Color or neutrals? It is a question that I get a lot. So here is what I tell my clients…. Look around your home. And see what your decor is. You want to dress to coordinate with your decor. Since you are probably going to purchase these images in wall art (canvas or framed prints), […]
Selecting a Family Photographer
Here at the studio, we have had a baby boom lately! I am loving it. If you don’t know, I am a family photographer who caters to the growing family (maternity, newborn and family). So having all of these new mamas in the last two months is so very exciting! Especially because 90% of our […]
