I know how hard it can be to get started in photography. I started when I was just 13 and would have LOVED to have someone who was  experienced to teach me a few of the ins and outs. But I was SO intimidated of all the older, more established photographers, I didn’t dare ask. […]

I thought we could all use a little pink love in the middle of this snowy winter. I hope you have a very happy week. We’re off for a belated Valentines/middle-of-winter vacation. 80 degrees coming right up. Ahh- I’m excited. 

One of the best things about being married is you get to add another set of family. My husband’s  family really is wonderful- we love them tons. This is his brother and sister-in-law and their adorable family. Matt & Marlene are the best parents in the world. I mean that. Their kids are so well-behaved […]

Who do I use when I’d like to try out a new lens? My little sister, of course! She’s my favorite model, and lately has been my assistant on quite a few shoots. (Her pay is a McDonalds Happy Meal on the way home) 🙂 It’s a win-win. Here’s a few from our shoot. I […]

I am so, SO excited to finally share with you all what we’ve been working on for months! I was tired of the old blog, and wanted something that was more me. (More teal, I should say.) That’s when I  found Dawn, from Dawn Alderman designs– she did such a wonderful job and was so […]

Although we decided to no longer offer family sessions this year, we sold one styled, family session at our annual church box social. AND to make it even more fun, my in-laws bought it. 🙂 I wanted to make sure they had lots of pictures they loved,  so we broke it up into two different […]

She was my trusty little assistant last year, so sometimes if we had extra time before or after shoots we would snap a couple pictures of her. Right now she’s into drama/acting (her school is doing Not Regina this week), her new ipod, and playing the piano. Here are just a few of my favorites… […]

This was such a fun shoot for my cousin’s new deli. Adorable kids, for sure. Best wishes on your new business endeavor… 🙂 xoxo

She’s a tiny bit of dramatic mixed with thoughtful and caring. She’s creative, she loves riding her pony, and she can finish off a container of cookies and cream ice cream faster than any one I know. She’s my littlest sister, and I am so incredibly proud of her. I love you, LaRita! Happy 10th […]

In about FOUR MONTHS this little cutie is going to be my nephew! 🙂 We took a few pictures for his first birthday- and I couldn’t have asked for a happier kid. He laughed and smiled the entire time! 🙂 Colson’s daddy always says that he’s going to  make a great linebacker, so of course […]
