Personal projects in photography are key. They help you to get out of your comfort zone and hone in on your creativity. This year one of my personal projects is to participate in the 365 Project. Well.. kind of! The 365 Project is where you take a picture every day, edit it and then share […]

My absolute favorite type of photography is candid. I think shooting weddings taught me that. It never fails that at the end of a long wedding day, my favorite pictures are the in between moments I captured. I think it’s because of how authentic everything looks. And in a world where there isn’t much authenticity […]

If you want to capture the joy of boyhood, and all of its glory, you need to be ready. You need to have that camera out at all times. Mine sits in the living room or kitchen most days. No matter where it sits, it isn’t far, it’s always charged, and ready to go in […]

Using our images to tell a story is one of the things we want to accomplish when photographing our children. But how? There are ways you can photograph different elements of your story in order to make it complete. Just like when you were taught in grade school, there should be a beginning, middle and […]

This morning I got dressed for work for the first time in 7 months and I didn’t smell like baby poop and spit up. Today marks the last day of maternity leave and the first day I will be dropping my son off for daycare. I’m extremely lucky/blessed/fortunate to have been provided the opportunity to […]

Over Christmas we traveled home from Virginia to Arizona with our four month old little babe. There were a few things I learned while traveling with an infant, and I decided to put my thoughts together in a post for anyone who is feeling reluctant to travel with an infant. I promise, you can do […]

  Usually I prefer something salty, like chips and salsa. With that said, my favorite cookie EVER is the Ginger Molasses Cookie. Have you tried it? It’s seriously chewy and delicious!
