We sure did pick an interesting year to start photographing YITL sessions. This year’s set of clients are going to be missing two months of their year out of their yearbooks, but we’re doing our best to make up the time. Being back with these families has been such a light in the darkness that…

Before moving to Morgantown, this family called four other states home, but this home is the only one Aaron, two, has known. It is the the first home the couple purchased together and the one their son has grown into a toddler in. I met them days before they board a moving van and take…

I’ve been working through trying to stay busy and document this time at home with the kids as much as possible, because it’s a very interesting time in the history of the world AND because I know there will, most likely, never be another time that I will get so much time with them. Piper…

I had the pleasure of having my story told by Sure Shot Studios recently, and the results far exceeded my expectations.

We decided to remain friends on social media since we both had similar interests and our daughters were so close in age. We were both starting to build our…

We started a garden at my house today. We built a raised bed and filled it with plants. At this point , it’s a little over-filled, actually. I’ve never been great with plants. Too little water, too much water, not the right amount of sunlight, not the right kind of soil, you name it. I…

A good friend of mine, Emily, reached out to me in April to talk about the possibility of photographing her son’s graduation party, and I said yes without even thinking about it. If you know me or have followed me for any length of time, you know that motherhood drives my passion for documenting. To…

It’s been a long time, other than The Birth of Oliver, that I felt good enough about my work to blog it. Each and every client has been a dream who loves their photos and that is the reason I do what I do, but I’ve sat night after night staring at Lightroom striving for…
