You guys! I was chatting the other day with some colleagues of mine. Our main topic was the fall weather. The terribly rainy days and the cold wind force us to reschedule. We had all agreed that having to cancel our scheduled portrait sessions is one of the hardest parts about being outdoor portrait photographers. […]

There are moments in life. The moments that are so significant that time seems to slow, stop even. Jordan and Michelle’s entire wedding day felt like several of these moments place into a jar to be tucked away forever.         These two were married under an oak tree on their personal property […]

I’m not sure I have ever laughed as hard during a portrait session as I did with these girls! There is something to be said about a family who can naturally laugh and joke with each other. They are doing it right! Rachel and Ian are molding their girlies into confident, unique young women. It […]

There is nothing like getting to know a family while walking a beautiful landscape! These kiddos are giving their parents a run for their money and they love every minute of it. I truly love photographing a family with little ones. The more they are in front of the camera the more comfortable they become […]
