I've
always been
storyteller.

But I never set out to be a photographer. I was (and still am!) going to be a writer. And then as I worked toward that writing goal, someone put a camera in my hand and asked me to try telling stories with something besides words. So with an English nerd's love for character and tone, a romantic's love for poignant beauty, and a realist's love for imperfection, I dove in.

I've
always been a
story-teller.

That was back in 2010.

Since that time, photography has changed much of my life. It's brought me some of my dearest friends. It's reshaped the way my husband Danny and I view serving others. It has even literally taken me around the world. One thing that hasn't changed: my soul-stirring desire to tell stories that feel so real you're sure you knew them before you heard them. Or saw them. It's my privilege to tell those stories for my clients, and for the generations of their families still to come.

It’s kind of becoming a recurring theme that I’ll blog a bunch of sessions . . . and then the blog will fall silent for weeks or even months at a time. A few years ago, daily blog posts were at the heart of my photography business. Now — things have changed! As our adoption process […]

One of my favorite parts of family photos at the beach is getting to see the way kids explore and enjoy being at the edge of the ocean. With this family, it was no different. We dug in the sand and twirled on our toes and turned cartwheels down the beach, all as the most […]

Two years ago, when this family came to town for a visit, we got together for a sunrise session so magical I didn’t know that we could ever match it. So when they came back into town last month, I was really, really hoping we would have another gorgeous sunrise, and that we could put […]

So the term “better late than never” definitely applies to this situation, because these pictures are late in hitting the blog! We shot these portraits last October, more than half a year ago, but I promise this beautiful sunrise session was worth the wait! This family’s previous portrait session was about as different as could be […]

It’s been two years since the littlest dude in this family full of boys made his debut, and a lot has changed, and a lot has stayed the same for these four brothers and their parents! Changed: the boys are all a good bit bigger. Stayed the same: they’re all as silly and sweet as […]

This week in Florida feels summery in all the best ways: sunshine, warm breezes, clear skies. Anyone else in need of some beachy, summery vibes? Well you’re in luck — because today I’m pulling out a gorgeous, dripping-with-sunny-skies-and-sandy-toes session from last August. This is the kind of sweetness that happens when a family — mom […]
