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.

We’ll be spending today wrapping gifts, prepping food, and celebrating Jesus’ advent at the candlelight Christmas Eve service tonight. However you spend your Christmas Eve, we wish you a blessed holiday. Preferably one set to a great Christmas soundtrack. A few of my recent favorites: “It’s True” – Sara Groves “Joy To the World” – […]

What do you remember about Christmas when you were young? I remember this a bit vaguely. But stashed in a drawer at my parents’ house, my family still has those outfits that my grandmother made for us. I remember Christmas pageants at church and with my home school group. There was that one year when […]

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 […]

Okay, I’m always a Starbucks fan. But when they bust out their holiday cups and offer their holiday flavors, I really love Starbucks. In the past week, in addition to the always-beloved pumpkin spice, Danny and  have sipped on peppermint mocha, caramel brulee, and gingerbread lattes. And I’ve got one sticker to go on my “earn […]

It’s been a chilly week here in Virginia, with a few snow flurries and temperatures that have dipped to the low twenties. And it’s put me in the mood for Christmas the way a muggy 80-degree day in Florida simply can’t. Even the sky looked wintery in Maryland last night.I’m so ready to celebrate this […]
