You guys, if you only ever look at one of my blog posts ever, pretty please let it be this one. In home sessions have my heart. Where else do you feel most comfortable? Home is where you can take …

the magic of childhood

I’ve been participating in a workshop by photography virtuoso Yan Palmer called Teethkiss that has sort of changed my life…and along with it, my art. This was my first session since delving into it, and I feel like my work is taking on a different meaning. I’m seeing things more intentionally. Of course, there are still your more traditional family photos included in the gallery but this session focused around a little girl, whose parents adore her and who has the wildest, most beautiful hair. It is a depiction of childhood. The balance of being safely encircled in loving arms, and the freedom of roaming in an open field, throwing grass in the air and letting it fill you with the purest joy.

Clover + park play + the Vogels

I love when a photoshoot has something inanimate as a major theme, unplanned. This session it was clover flowers. We had a laid back evening at a park, picking clover, watching the kids play as a family. I wish more …

The Carothers family

The Sechler family

E family newborn in-home

What could be better than a sun-drenched room, a simple backdrop, and a sweet family snuggled up in front of the camera? Nothing.

Baby P + family

A colorful, beautiful, lively family and a sweet baby girl all piled up together at home are perfect for any documentary portrait photographer. I just sat back as a fly on the wall and captured what was there, and it …

Willis’ + Wind

This is a first. This entire blog post is comprised of only black and white images, which I have never posted exclusively before. There were soft greens on the rolling hills and my sweet clients were impeccably dressed in teal …

The Eastbourn family

This is one of my favorite ever families, especially in front of the camera! Mix this kind, beautiful family (with a little one on the way!), some gorgeous greenery in the mountains, and the result is magic. I am so grateful for these return clients, and can’t wait to photograph them and their newest addition again soon!

The Forthman family

I was so glad to photograph this family and get to know them. Between the idyllic location; a gorgeous, laid-back family; and the sweetest little girl who is a photographer’s dream, I am loving the result!
