Newborn sessions are such a gift to your family now, but even more so later! When your sweet new bundle of joy is born, you won’t believe how quickly they grow & change. That’s why so many Mom’s & Dad’s schedule newborn sessions to capture those first weeks with their new little one. Some families […]

Family photo sessions can be a stressful event for Mom’s, Dad’s & kids alike. But they don’t have to be! As a photographer and Mother of 2 boys myself, I get the feeling. You want your kids to behave so that you can get beautiful photos of your happy family – keyword, HAPPY. After all, […]

Spring time is by far my favorite season for family sessions. Or any photo session, really. The weather is perfectly mild, the colors are bright & fresh, and everyone just has a lively energy about them — including me!

There’s just something so magical about In-Home Motherhood Sessions. This one, in particular, holds a special place in my heart.

There’s a whole lot to love about Colorful Colorado. The sunshine, the plains, the blue skies, and of course, the mountains. After living in this beautiful state for nearly three months, Kyle and I have gotten quite a bit of adventuring under our belts. We’ve driven, what feels like every town, looking for a place […]

Planning a wedding can be stressful at times, but it should also be fun! If you’re feeling overwhelmed, pressured or discouraged, let this blog post be a place of rest for your weary heart and mind.

Dear Texas, I remember the day I got the job like it was yesterday. I was sitting at my kitchen table in my apartment on a quiet Boston street. It was January of 2015, and outside the record-breaking 110 inches of snow Boston received that year made it difficult to decipher cars from snow banks.
