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.

So, a funny thing happened at CONNECT last week. Just before we photographed Eileen and Phillip, we ran into Sabrina and Ben as they headed to dinner, and Sabrina asked me to get a shot of the two of them all dressed up. Naturally, I took the opportunity to drag them away from the dining […]

Last year at CONNECT, we met Eileen and Phillip, but we didn’t get to spend enough time with them. I ran into them again at the Pursuit 31 conference last October, when they modeled for a styled shoot, and we spent the rest of that evening chatting. This year heading into CONNECT, Danny and I […]

The day Jordan and Wes were married, 12-12-12, was warm and humid, blustery, overcast, and capped off with a dramatic thunderstorm just before their ceremony. The day Jordan and Wes had their anniversary session last month was the exact opposite: Chilly and clear, with a bright golden sunrise over the Halifax River. Either type of […]

Danny and I say it to each other often: We love each other more now than when we got married four years ago. And we loved each other then far, far more than when we’d begun dating, four years before that. In the time we’ve been married, we’ve not only gotten really accustomed to each […]

She’s the second sister in a family of five girls — and the fourth one of those sisters to have stepped in front of my camera in this past year. Celeste (and Johnathan) wanted to do a photo shoot to celebrate two major milestones in Celeste’s life: Graduation and home ownership. Yes, you read that […]
