looking back … and moving forward

I’ve been sitting here watching and re-watching, crying my eyes out over how many beautiful people have been a part of my life in 2009. This past year has not been the easiest, or even the best, of my life – but because of all of you, I have been able to walk a path...

in case you needed convincing that wintertime family photos are the BEST…

…then let me introduce you to the incomparable Tamara, Dave, Ethan & Zach!

everybody’s baby : sneak peek

It is always an honor to be invited into someone’s home to photograph their family, but this session was particularly special to me. Karen and I went to Junior High and High School together.

After having the flu, Jack being sick and then lots of re-scheduling due to weeks of rain, rain and more rain, I have been using these beautiful, sunny days for shooting as much as I can. With all the extra editing that causes, it...
