In An Effort To Get Life Off the Hard Drive
The saddest part of my job as a photographer is when a client only orders a few small format prints from their session. In my head I hear the wha-wha sound. I feel like a failure as a photographer. Images are meant to be shared, large, or in a book or someway other than a…
Read MoreA Maternity Photo Session and What I Learned About Chiggers
Maternity sessions are quickly becoming one of my favorite sessions to shoot. I didn’t really appreciate them as much until I was pregnant.

Holly is one of those senior photography clients I have the grand opportunity of knowing pretty well before our photo session.

Read MoreA Photographer, In Front of the Camera
It’s rare that I am in front of a camera. At family events, through daily life and on instagram I am the one behind the camera, it’s rare that you’ll see a picture of me. The last professional photos we had of us together (other than the mini photos we took to do the pregnancy reveal)…
