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.

As I looked through our blog yesterday, my eyes settled on one simple photograph. And I had one simple thought: “That is a picture of love.” Two weeks ago, we were caught up in the middle of United, and reminded hourly of something I’ve been pondering ever since. Our lives and our jobs, the speakers […]

When we left for California, we felt so long overdue for a vacation. We had been working hard — long, undefined hours (even though, at the start of the year, we had committed to more regular work hours); we felt fully engulfed by our work; we had so little time for the so many other things we […]

In our seven years together, Danny and I have never made a very big deal of Valentine’s Day. We’ve always preferred a picnic dinner on the boat to jostling with the dressed up crowds at a fancy, packed restaurant. This year, we stayed home. We cooked together. We ate by candlelight. We savored a delicious […]

Danny, It doesn’t take a special day dedicated to love for you to tell me how much you love me. You probably tell me you love me no fewer than five or six times every single day. I know — I’m a lucky girl. So to me, Valentine’s Day doesn’t feel particularly special; every day is […]

Yikes! It’s been over two months since my last “My Favorite Things . . . Right now” post, and I’ve been trying to stick to blogging them monthly. Because, you know, my favorite things change depending on when it’s “right now.” So what am I loving “right now”? Well, there’s Nneka and Bobby’s fabulous DIY […]
