These four are some of my favs ever! Sometimes you know you were just supposed to meet! This is definitely one of those cases. It started with Krista a few years back. She is the fabulous owner at Hoopla Events and an event coordinator, extraordinaire! Well, then I met the rest of her core people, […]

I’m not sure how I got so lucky, but within a few months I had the Scriven Family in front of my camera twice! WIN FOR ME! One of my favorite families in life! Now, add Dan and Martha (Kate’s mom and dad) and the James crew into the mix, and we have nothing but […]

So, the other day I was photographing a family, stopped to look at the back of my camera and gasped. And then I thought, “In 20 years, he is going to be so happy to have this photo with his mom and dad”.  They may be silly moments, or non traditional moments, or crazy moments….but […]

Gosh, where do I begin!?!  I feel like this photo shoot was a few years in the making! Jen is a gorgeous mama and part of the fantastic team that is Hoopla Events.  I feel so lucky to have developed a friendship with her over the past few years. And on this perfect fall morning, I fell in […]

Can you even believe it’s August 19th? Two weeks from tomorrow school starts! I think we are getting closer to being ready, but each year with my kids gets more and more fun and I just love the freedom of summer (more of that in an upcoming personal blog post)!  I mean, this summer has […]

Happy mid-January. I hope this crisp New Year is off to a good start for you all!  Long ago, I used to not love the first few months of the year.  I’m a fall lover, and spring lover and holiday lover. But for some reason, the first few months of the year were not my […]

Turning six months old at the holidays makes for a VERY fun photo shoot! This is Oliver. I first met this gorgeous and kind family when Oliver was just two weeks (click here for a reminder). I was so excited when his mom had me back to capture the magical 6 month mark. SO. MUCH. […]

Krista has become such a good friend this year! She is the superstar of Hoopla Events (total talent), a gorgeous wife, a loving mama and can coordinate like no other!!! I started collaborating with her back in the spring and just wrapped up another super fun styled shoot/party a few weeks back (which you’ll see here in […]

This little family – SUCH love and total adorableness.  Reid recently turned 1 and he is ON THE MOVE!!!!!! I love that this family enjoys the little things.  The way he drinks his milk all. the. time. His unending appetite. The sparkle in his eye when the music from Curious George enters the room.  His […]

If there were such a thing as blog emoji….you guys would think I was crazy and I would TOTALLY overuse it (for sure)!!! I have had the privilege of shooting some seriously fantastic families this fall. Families full of love, fun, silliness, wit, care, and just major adoration for each other. I’m serious when I […]
