I love to hear client’s stories and their journey before we met! This is how I get really attached to them. Whether it is your birth story, infertility story, one year photo session, or just silly stories of getting ready for the session, I love getting to know you! And if I can manage to […]
Three Beautiful Ladies
These three beautiful ladies have been coming to see me since before two of them were born. I love twin photography! And these twins have been well documented in our studio! They came once a month for the first year of their lives and I’ve seen them as least once a year since then. They […]

Finding Connection is something magical
Connection in family photos is something magical! I can usually make it happen rather quickly. And some people make it easier than others. But photos are always better with it! You can have connection between people or connection with a person’s eyes in a posed image. Either way, I love connection in family photos! So […]
