We just returned from eleven days of adventure in Playa Del Carmen and Tulum. It was our first time traveling out of the country with all of our children. Several years ago we had good intentions of exploring the world with them, but time went the way it does and we never made those dreams […]

Some of the best keepsakes in life are the photographs that capture your family in their true form. When they’re at home playing, laughing and just being themselves. Choosing a photographer to capture these moments for you, means that you are able to be in the photos as well.  Although the idea of inviting someone […]

Why are breastfeeding images important? Motherhood sessions are special for so many reasons. The connection between mother and child that’s built from this intimate time together translates beautifully in photographs. These sessions are some of my very favorites. Time moves faster than they say and this chapter will be forever cherished. Having images of the details […]

We just wrapped up the first run of Food as Art and I was blown away by the work of my students. My heart is so full from watching others become inspired and motivated to grow in this area of photography. It’s incredibly fulfilling to see concepts absorbed and then come to life through everyone’s […]

I make these pictures for them and for me. So what do my children see in the work? I asked if they would sit with me…to make this a collaborative curation and feed my curiosity. We went through the motions and memories together. Four chairs side by side, a year of photographs before us and […]

2017  brought a lot of changes, both personally and for my business. I’m nearing the end of another 365 project and plan to continue shooting daily through 2018. This was the first year that I took on multiple births and spent much of the summer on call for families who welcomed new life into the […]

We already have an abundance….our well is deep, providing endless clean water and our house is sturdy and warm. We have nourishing food and the resources to prepare three meals a day. There are clothes on our backs and shoes on our feet, we’re never in need of transportation. Beauty surrounds us…ferns sprout from every […]

You can follow through the blog circle to see other freelensing adventures from artist’s around the globe. The […]
