Yes this is way late. This post is incredibly overdue. But you know what isn’t over due? My baby, she came on her due date. Impressed? You should be. Sorry, it’s 2:00am. My brain wanders at 2:00am. Anyways, to the matter at hand, our baby shower… You see we never really had a wedding shower…

So I’m doing dishes, Issa wakes up from a nap and is screaming, I grab her and the doorbell rings. The water is still running in the kitchen sink. I open the door and it is a 3 year old little girl, alone. She starts to just…come inside my house, pulling open the screen door…

Adjusting to life as a mother of a newborn has been anything but easy. Yet another one of those surprises no one really prepares you for, or maybe they just can’t. People tell you, “Oh your life is going to change”, “Things will never be the same”, etc. but they almost seem to say it…

My baby girl, Issabella Rosemari came right on time March 9th at 6:25 PM, her due date. Hopefully she’ll be just as punctual through the rest of her life. I’ve got tons to share from photos to her nursery and more but for now I’ll be taking a break from the blog to soak in…

I can’t remember what shoot I was on where I finally said to myself, “I can’t do this successfully alone.” I want to say it was back in 2009, in Tulsa at a wedding I was shooting. I could have the dates wrong, but I’m pretty sure it was right around that time. I immediately…

Last night I moved to New York City. I donned a really adorable black pea-coat-trench, some mid-calf boots, colorful tights, and a gray sweater dress and headed to my first movie audition. It was oddly enough much more similar to jury duty selection than the auditions I’d seen on TV and in movies. We all…

Don’t worry I’m not going to talk politics. I’m not going to share my views or thoughts on who or what you should or shouldn’t vote for. But, I do think you should vote, no matter what your position is. Do some google searches, read some policies and positions, make an educated decision for your…

Five years ago on this day I started to fall in love with this guy. Lucky for him it was also his birthday. Happy birthday to my husband and father of our little peanut. You’re fantastic and I’m thrilled that you were born on this day. PS. I got all nostalgic and found photos of…
