I realized a few days ago that the person/animal most happy about summer break is Wyatt. I mean, hello, his favorite people in the world home ALL. DAY. EVERY. DAY! I often say that Wyatt and Nate are the same being – just boy and dog. Energy, crazy, happy, joyful, lover of all people! They […]

Happy almost last day of June! I can’t believe it’s nearly July!  As my son said to me a few days, back…..”Mama – it’s my half birthday and half way to Christmas”!  Yikes – thanks Nate! I hope you are all enjoying these warm, summery nights! First and foremost, tonight is about this awesome, hilarious, […]

This town I live in is so diverse……you can pretty much find the most awesome locations for photos regardless of your desires….woodsy, beach, waterfront, city-ish vibe. I seriously love it. And I LOVE this little area where my siblings descended on this fabulous day! It’s like the best light bubble in the city! Auntie Stacy […]

You guys have to know that when you share nice words about my photography and business I totally, 100% appreciate it.

Today is Memorial Day! Honestly, how is it the end of May?!!! We had a friend-filled family weekend away and I was reminded of how grateful I am for the little things. Our freedoms in this country are beyond and I never want to forget that. Tonight, I’m keeping it short and sweet and I […]

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, […]

Well, the past six weeks or so since we’ve been home have been filled with family and friends and school and work and regular life. All good things. It has also been filled with sad tears from kids missing Thailand, feeling so grateful for opportunities to experience cool new things together as a family, some […]

I knew the second I arrived, I would reserve an entire blog post for this place.  Patara Elephant Farm!!!! Last spring when we started planning this trip, a friend was traveling Asia. She posted a picture of her and an adorable elephant, and the rest was history. I emailed her immediately to find out where […]

This fabulous family session reminded me of why I completely love photographing people in their own space. It was simple. It was playful. It was comfy. It was them! I also learned on this day that I was totally meant to meet this trio (and was crazily surprised we hadn’t crossed paths before)! But I […]
