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.

Graduation has happened, and this girl’s ready to head out of state and off to college! But before that all unfolded . . . I’m so glad I got the chance to shoot her gorgeous senior portraits this spring! If this girl isn’t the definition of camera-ready, I don’t know what is. She was so absolutely […]

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 […]

They wanted beach portraits — and although, as a photographer herself who knows all too well that we can’t control the weather during a shoot, she really hoped they would end up with a soft, pastel sunset and glassy-smooth water skimming along the beach and reflecting like a mirror. What we ended up with were her […]

This is only Part One. That’s right. Claudia’s senior session was so much fun (and involved so many beautiful portraits in two different locations) that I decided to split it into two blog posts. Later this week, her equestrian portraits. But today, her gorgeous sunrise beach portraits:This was one of our first frames of the […]

I’m not entirely sure how this happened — I’ve lost count of the number of engagement sessions I’ve done at the beach, and I’ve shot over a dozen sunrise sessions in the past year, but somehow this was the very first time I’ve ever shot an engagement session, on the beach, as the sun rose. It. […]
