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.

They looked at each other with so much love and mutual admiration in their eyes. And no, I’m not talking about the bride and her groom just yet — I’m talking about the bride and her mother. Claire looked like she was smiling back tears; Sandra looked like the pride and excitement and joy were […]

Oh, Claire. If only Bill had been there to see you, dressed up and glowing as if it were your wedding day. Their wedding day was this past Saturday, and it was a perfect dream of a day. But it was almost her wedding day when Claire and her mother, Sandra, met up with Danny […]

Claire checked her appearance from one angle, then another as her bridesmaids lifted her gown down from the closet. She patted her bun of curls as her mother gathered up Claire’s jewelry and veil to head to the church. I had to ask. “So, does it feel real? Do you feel like a bride?” She […]

We’d been hearing a lot of buzz about PASS for months before we decided to give it a go ourselves. I mean, we were kind of in love with the beautiful custom DVD cases we create for our clients, and our clients were in love with them, too. But there were just too many compelling […]

In August, I got a message from Valentina of Valentina Glidden Photography, a photographer whose work I’ve followed and admired for almost a year now. Valentina was traveling to Orlando from California for a wedding in early September, and the second shooter she’d had lined up had cancelled, so Valentina wondered if I knew anyone […]
